A 6-week 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.
Preparation and presentation of financial statements for business enterprises, not-for-profits, and governmental entities. Conceptual framework and disclosures. Build flashcards covering every learning objective and quiz yourself before moving to the next module.
Measurement and reporting of specific balance sheet items including cash, receivables, inventory, PP&E, intangibles, investments, liabilities, and equity. Build flashcards covering every learning objective and quiz yourself before moving to the next module.
Accounting for specific transactions and events including revenue recognition, share-based compensation, income taxes, business combinations, and derivatives. Build flashcards covering every learning objective and quiz yourself before moving to the next module.
Weak-topic drilling. exclam.ai surfaces topics where you underperformed during coverage and re-quizzes them. Daily FSRS flashcard reps across all 3 topics to prevent decay. Start doing timed question batches focused on the heaviest-weight sections.
Full-length CPA practice exams under timed conditions. Target one mock every 3–5 days. Same-day error review: for every question you miss, re-derive the solution from scratch. Taper in the final 3 days — light flashcards only.
