Starting in 2024, the dates for the Spring and Fall exams will change. The Spring exam will move from April to June. This change affords May graduates the opportunity to qualify for the exam soon after graduation. In 2025, the Fall exam will move from October to February. This will shorten the waiting period between December graduation and the next exam.

The number of questions on the exam will be reduced from 150 to 125 questions. In October 2024, the current “study guide” will be replaced with an “examination guideline” (guideline). The new guideline will include an updated list of sources.
