imho there is no point in going to class when there is technique only without drilling and you've been training for 2years+ frequently(with this, i mean 5-7 times a week).
I've never heard of classes that show technique only without drilling. Are you referring to rolling?
Good list but I think you're missing 1 critical point (you've touched on it close, but not quite). I am referring to efficiency.
Efficiency can mean a lot of things in training. I don't consider "drilling & rolling" necessarily to be enough to constitute an "efficient" training session. How much did you actually learn per class? Are you drilling enough? A lot of top level guys talk about the importance of drilling like 70% of the time, rolling like 30%. Are your drills efficient in themselves? Are you doing enough positional sparring? You have to create drills to address the weaknesses in your game. Do you know exactly and specifically what weaknesses you have? Introspection is a good thing in training. What are you good at? What can you do to make that even better? What techniques would be more practical for your body type? Are your training partners helping you improve? Who can you train with to maximize your improvement? Etc etc etc....all this and more goes into efficiency.
Also: Are you setting goals for yourself? Micro-goals as in learning a specific technique to the level of muscle memory? How long is it taking you to learn this technique? Have you been able to apply in rolling? etc etc...
