Hi, Does anyone have a list of differences between the '06 and '07 exam study material? I am using '06 books and want to make sure I cover any material that's not in '06 as well. Your help is highly appreciated. thx! Dmitriy |

I have something that might help Level 1 - 2007 Curriculum Changes As always, the Level 1 curriculum has changed significantly for the coming year. The rearrangement and rewriting of the learning outcome statements (LOS) has been extensive; dozens of new LOS have been added, and some old LOS have been deleted. Additionally, 25 new readings have been added, while others have been dropped. The following changes to the 2007 Level 1 curriculum represent a formidable challenge to Level 1 candidates. Ethical and Professional Standards The recommended procedures for compliance with the Standards of Practice are now required knowledge for Level 1 candidates New GIPS® LOS Quantitative Methods Many LOS have been reworded and a significant number have been moved to Level 2 Economics The Economics text has been changed. All of the readings for Microeconomics and Macroeconomics are new, as are the LOS Two readings for International Economics have been replaced with new material The majority of the LOS are completely new Financial Statement Analysis There is one new reading and six new LOS in Financial Statement Analysis Corporate Finance The readings are new and cover 26 new LOS The Corporate Governance and related LOS have been added to Corporate Finance Asset Valuation There are two new readings There are eleven new LOS and many that have been changed or reworded Portfolio Management This study session has only one new LOS! |
