The 2024 Evolution CPA exam: every candidate passes 3 Core sections plus 1 Discipline section of their choice. Same license, different specialization.
Every candidate picks exactly one Discipline based on career direction. All three lead to the same CPA license.
AICPA publishes detailed Blueprints for every CPA section as free public PDFs. Each Blueprint includes:
Every Blueprint maps to a 5-level hierarchy ending in ~570 total representative tasks across all 6 sections. Each task is tagged with a Bloom's skill level (Remembering/Understanding, Application, Analysis, Evaluation).
The Blueprint specifies what percentage of each section tests each Bloom's level. FAR and BAR are Application and Analysis heavy. AUD has the most Evaluation-level questions (judgment). ISC is Remembering-heavy (fact-based IT content).
Download every Blueprint PDF at aicpa-cima.com. No login, no payment. AICPA publishes them for candidate orientation.
Upload your prep materials and exclam.ai generates flashcards and practice questions tagged to specific Blueprint tasks. You can drill by task, area, section, or skill level.
Drop in your Becker lecture notes, Wiley/UWorld session summaries, Gleim chapter notes, or your own study PDFs. exclam.ai parses them into structured content mapped to AICPA Blueprint tasks.
AI flashcards weighted by Blueprint task. Multiple-choice practice by area. Task-based simulation frameworks aligned to the real exam structure. All generated from your uploaded content.
Taking FAR first? Then AUD? Then REG? Then BAR? exclam.ai tracks mastery across the full 30-month window. FSRS spaced repetition re-surfaces weak areas. Weak sections get more drill time.
Pick the timeline that matches your testing window. exclam.ai spreads roughly 150 hours for a single section across the AICPA Blueprint areas — coverage, then review, then mocks — and recomputes the schedule as you change the plan length. Most candidates take 3-6 months between sections.

Unlock my full plan freeYour CPA section plan walks the AICPA Blueprint areas module-by-module. We use FAR's 4 areas below as the canonical example — section-specific schedules sit on each CPA section page (FAR, AUD, REG, and the Discipline sections). Heavier-weight areas get more weeks; lighter ones may pair into a single week.

exclam.ai is an AI study system for the 2024 Evolution CPA exam. Upload your Becker, Wiley/UWorld, Gleim, or Surgent notes and exclam.ai turns them into adaptive flashcards, practice quizzes, and a weekly study plan aligned to the AICPA Blueprints.
All candidates take 3 Core sections (AUD, FAR, REG) plus 1 Discipline section of their choice (BAR, ISC, or TCP). The new 30-month credit window starts when you pass your first section. The AICPA Blueprints for each section are free public PDFs with task-level detail across ~570 representative tasks.
BAR if you liked FAR and want deeper financial reporting. ISC for IT audit or tech advisory paths. TCP for tax careers. Pick based on your career direction, not perceived difficulty. All three are viable paths to licensure.
No. exclam.ai works alongside your chosen review course. You keep Becker, Wiley/UWorld, Gleim, or Surgent — exclam.ai is the planning and flashcard layer. Upload your session notes and exclam.ai turns them into FSRS-scheduled reviews and task-level practice.
The 2026 Blueprints (effective January 2026) are the latest update since the 2024 Evolution launch. Minor content adjustments for evolving standards (ASC 842 leases, newer FASB updates, updated tax thresholds). The core Section structure (Core + Discipline) and skill-level distribution remain the same.
Starting in 2024, candidates have 30 months from the date they pass their first section to pass all four sections (up from 18 months). The clock starts when you receive your first pass score — not when you schedule. If you pass AUD in March 2026, you have until September 2028 to pass the other three.
