    I just started going over the reading in CPA Excel and apparently they don’t update the reading/MCQs till late June or early July. Are there tons of changes in the tax law?

    My NTS is expiring mid-July so I don’t really have a choice but…

    FAR- 88- 6/16- (Ninja Avg. 74%)
    REG- 89- 7/16- (Ninja Avg. 77%)
    AUD- 95- 8/16- (Ninja Avg. 81%)
    BEC- 82- 9/16- (Ninja Avg. 75%)

    FAR - June 2016 - 88
    REG - July 2016 - 89
    AUD - Aug 2016 - review phase currently
    BEC - Sep 2016 -

    I think that July is where they switch from prior year tax rules to the current year tax rules. With that being said, I am not sure how much that varies from year to year. I think you are fine to start studying, but give yourself enough time to review the tax section for any changes. You can probably google tax changes for the year because they are already in effect, just not testable.

    If you really wanted to be safe you could probably squeeze in BEC by the earlier half of July and then take REG at the end of August or beg of September.

    Almost always from my phone... please excuse my typos!
