I will soon begin taking the CPA exam.
I had decided on the following time frames to prepare for each exam:
FAR- 8 to 9 weeks
AUD- 4 to 5 weeks
REG- 7 to 8 weeks
BEC- 4 to 5 weeks
However, I made this decision based on information from 2010 exams. My question is, with the changes to the exam beginning this year does the preparation time I have decided on for each exam look appropriate? Should I make any adjustments?
Any advice appreciated
Thanks

Is this as a full time CPA studier, or do you also have a job? If you have a job, I'd suggest spreading it out a little more. I work full time and spent 10-12 weeks on each exam. I also work as an auditor, so sometimes my hours are really late.

I will be working full-time along with studying. I currently work at a small accounting firm, completing experience requirement, so I know what you mean by the hours. I scheduled my first exam in July so I would have some time to study after tax season is over.
