Are BD tests from 1994 still valid?

[mollymurphy]

As the title really. Just wondering as i was given all (or most) of the prelim and novice tests yesterday, and would like to know if they're still the same tests now? It would be majorly embarrassing if i went in and did the wrong test!!!

How would i find out? Email BD?

Thank you!

It depends which one's they are - I have Prelim 18 1994 and 2002 and they are exactly the same - lost my one out of my 2007 folder so hope it hasn't changed since 2002!

There should be a list of current tests on the BD website (http://www.britishdressage.co.uk/homepage), but I'm not sure if they have reviewed them all since 1994 (regardless of whether or not they have actually changed them)!

Probably best to email them to make sure.

I know that there are several new ones at Prelim and Novice level now.

No - 1994 tests are not safe to use. The oldest year that should be on a test is 2002. One or two of the 1994 may still be the same as a 2002+ version, but it is risky to depend on that.

If you go to the BD site as happihorse suggests and go to the online shop, the relevant years of publication are given after each test.
