[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What field are you in? DH is an accountant, so no. I'm in stats/econ/data analysis so yes. [/quote] if an accountatnt wants to sit for the CPA exam, 150 accademic credits are needed. So a Masters is a must.[/quote] That's only true for recent grads. I have a CPA and no master's because at the time you only needed 120 credits to sit for the exam. And technically, you don't need a master's even now, as long as you have total of 150 credits. [/quote] Ok, it was not required for the older generation. I took the CPA exam in 2004 and 150 credits were required (might have been the first year or so) so it has been almost a decade, not only a recent requirement. Why would you pay for 30 extra credits if you would not be getting a masters for that? How competitive would one be without an MST or MS in accounting in the market place if everyone around them has a CPA and a master's? [/quote]
