I've read in several posts about graded piano exams in the UK and Canada.  Is there anything equivalent in the US?  Just curious.

There is a new one, RACE (I think it stands for Royal American Conservatory Examinations), based on Canada's RCM. I think their website is race.com, but don't guarantee it!
