[Manga] Sakura's team

[cheese4u]

Pre time skip we all saw the Chuunin exam and the criteria for the chuunin exam. And we all know that one of the most basic rules is that you have to have three members in your team. But how did Sakura become a Chuunin if she was the only person in her group. Heres what I think maybe she took the chuunin exam with Ino and Chouji, seeing as how Shikamaru was already Chuunin they were short one member. I don't know this is just my input. Maybe I missed something while reading the manga, because for all I know this could've already been mentioned.

even thou the chunin exam takes place like 4 times a year, it is held in different countries. This means that it is very possible that none of the other exams were held in konoha.

Secondly the rules that were 'regular' in konoha, may have been completly different in another country in order to favor that country's ninja better. In case you hadn't noticed the majority of the ninja who made it past the 2nd test were leaf.
Gara's pretty much did the tests by himself, and oro's team was fixed to being with. (with backup from oro and kabuto)

In the worst case senario, where kishimoto sensei looses all imagination and creativity, and makes the test the same in all other countries, you still have the simple fact that there were 8 tests, 2 years and any combination of the 6 gennin who didn't pass the first time (and were still around). Not to mention all the fodder that failed the test as well.

its not a big deal=) it has been 2,5 years and 2 chuunin exams,that makes 2 graduate nin groups fropm academy,they can make a new team for her or your point(which makes more sense to me)
or tsunade made her a special serve =P

There probably are rules in place for how to handle people whose teammates are dead, gone, or already promoted...

like simply assinging new ones.

Spoiler:

sasuke and team 7 case in point

[FiendZeroX]

a really simple way to have fixed it would have been to put sakura in ino and chouji's team cuz they were missing one person

but i dont gave much chance to them,lol ino is idiot,chouji is more idiot then her..shika was the brain of the group where i doubt sakura can replace shika...

actually both ino and sakura were above average intellegence and had good grades. They just werent geniuses. Not to mention that choji did beat jiboru by himslef, and could prolly have defeated sakon as well. AND sakura was getting personal lessons from the hokage. And it would no longer be their first time taking the test.

The only real problem would be the teamwork between ino and sakura. But since sasuke's gone they don't seem to be fighting that much.
