Comments: Very interesting situation as Naruto is more focused in the academy though he fails the Bunshin genin test the story actually mentions Lee's graduation. However, Naruto doesn't learn Shadow Clones either with the author's claim of him never learning them either. Also special mention to Naruto whose The Gadfly and tease everyone to no end.
Seconded: The premise is original, the writing fluid, and the plot is full of Crowning Moments of Heart Warming which double as Crowning Moments of Awesome as well. Definitely a must read.
Unclouded TJ: The first few chapters are a little depressing but at least go into detail on why Naruto still fails three times. It's worth staying with the story for the Bell Test alone though as always Your Milage May Vary.
