Honestly I believe Gaara also had to go through the same stuff, as his dad was killed around the time of chunin exams and he never became chunin for that reason, and also became the next Kazekage.

While becoming the Kazekage did he have to train a bit more under an Interim Kazekage or not that is to be seen.
