In order to award the points every breed standard includes a scale of points  - see the Standards.
The points are distributed according to the typical features of every single breed. The more points are allotted to a part of the standard the more serious a corresponding fault is considered. For example: If 20 points are allotted to coat texture (for example in the Russian Blue), a poor coat texture should be penalized more severely than for example in the Korat, where only 10 points are allotted to coat texture.
