Is there a list of goals/study guide for the practical.
I know that lighting and maintaining a smoker is on it.
What else?
I think a lot of people are looking for more info.

Wally's list from the "I passed I passed" thread.
They need to know how to light a smoker, remove the outer frame first, recognize drone brood, drone, queen cell, queen, worker cell, worker, honey, capped and uncapped, and pollen. They must also be protectively dressed to their own comfort. IE...Stopping in the middle of the inspection to don more gear will cause them to fail. Also, lighting a smoker more than a time or two will also be a fail. It must stay lit.

The "practical" will be in September.
