Title: Candidate Performance on the Uniform CPA Examination
Description: For colleges and universities eager to find out how their students fared on the Uniform CPA Examination, NASBA's Candidate Performance Book has been a must-have annual purchase for more than two decades. The Candidate Performance Book‘s usefulness is hardly limited to the world of academia, however. With almost 200 pages of statistical reports and commentary on exam trends, NASBA’s member state boards of accountancy, providers of exam-review courses, as well as candidates and their families, also eagerly await the newest volume each year. "The information in the book comes directly from the source -- the candidates themselves," says Alfonzo Alexander, NASBA's Chief Relationship Officer. "When registering for the CPA exam, candidates voluntarily provide some data to the state boards of accountancy, who then send the information to us to be archived in our National Candidate Database. The rest of the relevant data is pulled from the candidates' applications, which are also entered into the National Candidate Database. In that aspect, NASBA has become a data warehouse for CPA exam information, and this book is just a snapshot of the data that we maintain." In addition to ranking colleges and universities by passing percentages of candidates, the book also highlights schools with the highest percentage of candidates passing all four sections. For current and future CPA exam candidates, the book lists candidate performance with and without advanced degrees; performance by highest level of education achieved; and performance by total semester hours. - Publisher.
