I don't remember where I read it..possibly the cpa-exam.org website, tx st. board website, or a thread on here.  I don't know when but I would imagine within a year.

Yea, I read that only BEC will have communication, the other exams won't have communication part. BEC will have sims and a bunch of communication.  REG, FAR, and AUD will have sims, but no communication..and they are going to start implementing the IFRS stuff real soon.

Thanks, Agtitan06. Where did you read this? And, when will these changes take effect in the exam?

It was said that there would be big changes in CPA exam. I cheched AICPA website but didn't get relevant information.



You are correct that the AICPA is merely DISCUSSING adding simulations into BEC and taking them out of the other sections.

If you would like a very (LONG) interesting read about these proposed changes and others, check out the AICPA's recent Exposure Draft here: http://www.cpa-exam.org/download/ExposureDraft_proposed_CSO_ SSO.pdf

It is pretty long but contains lots of relevant info about these and other changes.

Good luck!
