Can one move up too fast ?

I would not make that kind of statement to an assignor. Let them decide when you deserve that kind of schedule. You might just tell them with that kind of statement that you are never ready. Even if in the back of your mind you have doubts about your ability, you do not let people like that know that. They might just lose confidence in you and never get it back. Go out and work hard and let the chips fall where they may. It is possible that you are better than others and your ability will just show through. But if you make that kind of comment you might bring more doubts if you can handle something which you have already in some way proven you can handle.

Peace
