Sorry; that post is slightly above the 12 year old level. Can dial it back a bit?

It's not just the SAT that's being dumbed down. I passed the CPA under the "old system", i.e. testing dates in May & November, multiple essay questions, etc.

Now, you can schedule the exam during every month, and from what I've heard, there are no essay questions.

It may have been harder for some, but those essay questions pulled me over the finish line. I had the same professor for over 30 hours of accounting, and he never used numbers...he only taught theory.

His tests (midterm and finals) were all essay, and out of the five questions he would ask, the first sentence of the answer to at least two questions would be "based on the information you've given me, I cannot answer the question." From there, you would have to discuss the accounting theory behind the problem.
