I hope it doesn't trend up too much. To me, that would be a sign that they are making the test too easy. And what happens when the tests become too easy? Yep, that's right, oversaturation of CPAs in the market. That will cause a problem for jobs and compensation, in my opinion.

I don't think 50% of people passing is really "too easy", but I hope that the pass rates don't make them want to make the test harder. EEK!
