Whats on the test?

I would still get the breed clip charts from NDGAA to study from- they just updated their Poodle breed study guide, and there are questions on the tests directly from the specific info put on these guideline charts. And for the breed DQ stats- I know some of them are breed specific, but mostly it would be concerning overall breed conformation and structural faults.

So the study guide is really useful? I already made flash cards but I never knew what kind of information to put on them. When there are multiple disqualifications how are you supposed to remember them all? Also some of the breeds origins are unknown or conflicting any suggestions for this. What does coat characteristics mean?

You definitely should get the study materials from whichever association you plan to test with. And they are good to have, even if you have already been studying.

ISCC tests on coat characteristics and they are asking about what type of coat each breed has. Is it double coated, wire coated, curly coated, etc.? Are there breed specific specifications for the coat?
