May 21, 2025: NEW RANKING TABLE... Coming soon: There are significant Syllabus Changes for 2025-Fall so the Ranking Table below is going to change. The new Ranking Table will be available on or before July 1, 2025.

Click here for a few helpful hints on Using the Ranking Table and Instructor Support. Because the CAS no longer publishes past exams and there have been so many changes in the syllabus, the old version of the ranking table is obsolete. The readings below are still "ranked" from 1 through n, but not all readings in each grouping below are tested equally. Click Ranking Table 2023.Fall for the prior version of the ranking table.
