Hello,

I just got done skimming through the following article about the new exam changes:

https://www.journalofaccountancy.com/issues/2016/may/new-cpa-exam.html

I didn’t think we would be seeing any changes to the exam until 2017. How is everyone studying for the new Document review simulations?

I thought about printing out a set of the FAR blueprints and making sure I have a answer to each one after I work the MCQs and review that as part of the study routine. Does anyone know how many of these type of new simulations will be on the exam now and if they are completely replacing the old style simulations? And I am completely off here? I don’t see anyone else writing about these.

The blueprints for the new document review simulations are found here:
