Yes. Take BEC and AUD this year if you can which have the most changes. REG has the least changes and a lot of the FAR complex materials such as NFP, governmental, leases and more will be transitioned into the new BEC discipline "BAR". So if you struggle with those concepts, and/or want a shorter FAR exam which 2024 that requires less information to learn than wait until then and focus on the exams that will be more challenging next year; get those out of the way this year.

Thank you!!

Depends on what your timeline is. The new exams will take much longer to get your results back

So if you need license before 5/1 promotions for example then you need to essentially have the exams don’t by December 31 2023

Would anyone know where the outline of the changes occurring are posted? (AICPA blueprint or anything?)

You can find them on the providers' websites. Like Becker has the evolution and what the changes will be. I think you can also google this. Becker along with other providers like Universal CPA have made articles about them. Hope this helps!
