alot of things need to be factored in for a ninja to advance. naruto has the raw power of a jounin, but he lacks in everything else.

"Yeah, we are very thankful that you saved us all from definite destruction, provided food for all the poor + donated money to the fund for blind cows but unfortunately we can't promote you because you had one point too low on the theory test last year. Better luck next time!"

Okay, so it's an exaggeration, but still

That's not true at all. Naruto's strategies are as good as Shikamaru's, and he works well under pressure.

Really, what is Naruto actually behind in?

Naruto might be lacking in strategy or maturity, but he definitely is not lacking in leadership and i think thats a big part of becoming a chuunin, i mean if naruto has leadership and power i think it would be best if he was a chuunin from here on out and learned to be more mature as a chuunin, he wouldnt develop staying as a genin

anyways, i know chuunins have to be all serious and mature, but its not like they are on missions that are dangerous all the freakin time, look at Iruka, hes a school teacher most of the time

NARUTO LEADERSHIP? thats crazy.
knowing him when they start a mission he'd probably say "LETS GO!!" and then jump into OBVIOUS enemy traps. OR HIT A TREE. shikamaru is way better in my opinion.

Doesn't matter if they tied she still failed because they had to win in the preliminaries and tying is not a win.

he lacks leadership, it's obvious. but he doesn't lack MOTIVATION. he motivates others to do well and other shit. he has to be able to strategize like shikamaru can in order to become a leader. motivation alone is not enough. and please do not use the fact that he beat neji with a certain 'strategy' to support your counter argument. neji's ego clouds his mind more than anything (the only true reason why neji lost besides naruto having kyubi) and you have to take consideration of the possibility of smarter ninjas than neji being around.
