■ GOOD TO KNOW
Intensive learning: A question you answered incorrectly will reappear after just a few minutes. Once you've mastered it, it will appear at increasingly longer intervals.
School Mode: Here, the questions appear in the order of the catalog – for example, parallel to your course. This learning progress remains on your device.
Custom Rounds: You can study saved, incorrectly answered, and updated questions separately from the rest.
Question Hint: Some questions have a hint. You can display it where available.
Exam Practice: Here, you can test your knowledge under exam conditions – with the same number of questions and time limit. This allows you to see before the exam whether you can answer them under time pressure.
Second Device: With a free account, you can transfer your intensive study progress. School Mode remains on your device.
NRW Veterinary Competence Certificate: Since January 1, 2025, a standardized question catalog has been in effect for all of North Rhine-Westphalia – 197 questions from 20 subject areas. The exam is administered by officially recognized veterinarians.
Companion Dog Test: The DVG catalog is free – you don't need to buy it.
