Wild Card Exam
What is the Wild Card Exam?
The Wild Card Exam is a general SkillsUSA knowledge test, similar to the Professional Development Test (Study Guide). The test scores will be used to fill slots that did not fill at Region Championships due to a lack of participation in other regions. In other words, this test could be your ticket to State Leadership and Skills Conference!
