Don't call youself crappy  You've done some efforts in order to get there ... even if it's not that high. You should stop thinking all the time at ranks. There are "blacks" here, but think about those years they've been working for this. They have this time advantage and all that work. Want to become like them? Work ... and wait for the years to pass as you struggle 
I admire your effort. Be sure you'll make it 
About those 3?
I do Shotokan and I think it's the best (for me). For you ... it may be .... may be not. Go see and then decide. Whatever you'll decide go for it. Good luck

a belt means nothin to someone who trains hard. im just a yellow but i can put up a good fight against some of the green belts. judos fun!

Yes as a yellow belt I did learn some tricks in Judo
Such as falling, I loved the forward jump over people and roll back to my feet.
And some basic throws and holds. |

You should not let your self get discouraged just because you lost, This should inspire you and encourage you to train harder. Is the glass half empty or full, it is all about how you look at things... btw how old are you diamondick?

over the coarse of a year, you become proficient in karate, and it then surpasses full-contact.

Each are very differant.
1. What do you want? Do you want to be a fighter? Do you want to do karate for fun? Are you looking for just SD and execise?
2. Price vs Class number
3.Loacation vs class times.

Don't worry if you lost in a competition i't's not the end of the wourld. Just take it as a bit of experiance if you were to continue your training you may win next time and if you don't then winning isn't everything. You can't expect to win with a limited experiance, seven times down eight time up!!
