A Comparison of Selected Questionnaire Data for Current CPA Candidates and of Selected Personal Characteristics for Past CPA Candidates

This report, is presented primarily as a comparison of selected personal characteristics of current and past CPA candidates. At the same time it demonstrates the usefulness of the Uniform Statistical Information Questionnaire as a vehicle for accumulation of such data. It Is anticipated that the comparison of present day candidates with earlier candidates will provide additional insight to all members of the profession as to the need for continued support of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants' policy in regard to uniformity of criteria for determining qualifications for admission to the profession. | Candidates for the CPA certificate have been the subject of many studies over the years. Such research efforts have been sporadic in nature and generally confined to state boundaries, but nearly all have had as their ultimate objective the definition and analysis of one or more of the personal characteristics of the successful CPA candidate.
