Advanced Magical Learning Course

Often shortened to AML, the Advanced Magical Learning Course is the Capital Academy's most difficult, both to get accepted into and to pass.

It's a two-year course, so there are 1st years and 2nd years.

Class System
In each year of the AML course: What classes students get placed in depends on their overall potential when compared to the other student in that year who share their Affinity.
 * There are two classes of eight students, for a total of 16 students in each year.
 * One student for each Element in every class.
 * The classes are named Elite-AML, AML-2. Elite is the best, and 2 isn't.

Students cannot move higher or lower once they've been placed in a class until the next year of the course.

Tutor
All AML students are taught and trained by members of the King's Agency. Each class of eight students in both years has a "Class Tutor", who is also a King's Agent, that's in charge of them and responsible for their growth as Mages. Class tutors are as follows:
 * 1st-year Elite-AML: Hitoshi Masuno
 * 1st-year AML-2: Peppermint Foster
 * 2nd-year Elite-AML: Draden Mcleod
 * 2nd-year AML-2: Marina Beryillia

Mentors
As well as each class having a Class Tutor, two students from both classes share a "Mentor" that helps them improve their skills in a way that's more personalised and unique to them. The general stuff that can be taught to everyone is the job of the class Tutor. The Mentors of the AML are as follows in Fire-Lava order:


 * Nobuo G. Warholm: Elmnt. Rank
 * Hitoshi Masuno: Arcn. Rank
 * Peppermint Foster: Arcn. Rank
 * Serina Morriyane: Elmnt Rank
 * Bradley Wilheim: Eth. Rank
 * Marina Beryllia: Eth Rank
 * Zeleno: Eth Rank
 * Draden Mcleod: Elmnt. Rank

Below is who tutors who:


 * Daichi / Tyrell = Nobuo (Daichi and Tyrell are extremely adept at controlling the properties of their Magic. Nobuo is also very skilled in that matter.)
 * Shoto / Eastane = Hitoshi (Fast)
 * Aikanami / Beatrix = Peppermint (Peppermint is in charge of monitoring Aikanami. Beatrix's doll also needs watching over.)
 * Mmanuell / Hiro = Serina (These two have the highest EthrA %s out of all of this Year's AML. Serina, who has 60%, will teach them how to properly use it)
 * Deviké / July = Bradley (Bradley also has vampirism. He'll teach Deviké how to properly control it.)
 * Morgana / Jeht = Marina (Both are physical combat geniuses. Marina is Morgana's sister)
 * Rei / Ramiya = Zeleno (Zeleno is a famous historian, Ramiya is an aspiring historian. Rei has immense Gate complexity, as does Zeleno)
 * Leon / Zephira = Draden (Leon is the heir of the Mcleods and aside from his parents Draden is the highest Ranking Mcleod. )

Curriculum
AML is a two-year-long course.

Each year starts on the 20th of June and ends on April 12th.

Much of it is tailored to the induvidual, meaning Students spend most of their time with their mentors. You can't train geniuses off of a spreadsheet.

Activities involving the entire class and their Tutor are few and far between, mainly meetings, tests, and stuff like that.

Establishing the concept that Transmuted Flow should be controlled as an extension of one's body is vital, since a lot of advanced techniques build off of that concept.

September Round Robins
Each student fights every other student in their class. You get good boy points the more fights you win. If a Certamine Autem Casia is about to happen, who gets to represent Tsunia is chosen this way.

Ruthlessness
Students are trained to become insensitive to the suffering of others. Future King's Agents cannot falter because a single life is at stake. It shouldn't even matter if that life is lost. They're taught how to become resistant to blackmailing.

STP
The Striving Towards Perfection programme, shortened to STP, is a part of the curriculum that involves AML students being taught by the King's apprentices who preceded them for a month. This is mainly just to give the King's Agents a break.
