Oh, it depends on your writing style then. Mine would be a different grouping:
1) CILMNOSUVWZ
2) ABDGJPQRTXY
3) EFHK
Does anyone write a capital A using more than 2 strokes??
And how come the O is on the same line as B and D?
Actually, I'd put K on line 2 as well.

Looks like its time to end this puzzle!
The classification is by the number of "ends" each letter has.
For example, BDO don't have any "ends"
P has one.
HKX have 4.

Would you like another puzzle?
A Zoo compound has a certain number of animals in it. The Keeper reports that there are 25 heads and 80 feet in the compound. How many birds and beasts are there?

Yep,methinks I have the answer to this one! 
Btw, I thought the previous one was a good one, just a shame I couldn't get the answer!

I'm going for no birds, 10 spiders and 15 snakes. But I'm also thinking that's not the answer you're looking for.
