    Probably depends on firm, but my firm is pretty much the same as @mecrushya. Big firms are probably around 2-3 I'd guess

    AUD - 79
    BEC - 77
    FAR - 78
    REG - 80
    After 4 long years, I'm done.

    Would the employer determine this?

    I.e., we promote staff accountants to senior accountants “officially”…

    Seniors BTW can do any of the work with basically no supervision and they do high quality work that basically needs no changes.

    I don't really remember my CPA exam scores. I've been a CPA for decades... I run a four CPA firm in Redmond WA. I'm the author of a bunch of books about small business accounting including QuickBooks for Dummies and Quicken for Dummies.
