The 2013 book is good for all of 2013, so you should be in good shape. 🙂 I'm doing the same thing – using the 2013 book and taking it in October. Here's hoping we both get good scores!! 🙂

Just passed REG using the 2013 Wiley book.

I'd caution you with this one. Wiley gets extremely detailed. Probably not a bad thing but it gets pretty deep, much deeper than the exam IMO. If you are studying for efficiency, then use Becker book to help weed out what isn't necessary in Wiley.

Thanks for your responses but a quick scan of the 2013 textbook does not have the 2013 tax figures but rather the 2012 tax data. Will the Oct REG exams be based on the 2013 tax data or the 2012 tax figures .

You will not be tested on on phase outs or other thresholds. The 2013 exams will be based on 2012 tax year anyways. You are fine. You just need to know about the business law subjects, how to calculate basis or gain on transactions for different entities ect. They won't be asking you about the threshold phase out for IRAs ect.
