The study was conducted on Cavite State University - Don Severino de las Alas from March 2021 to August 2022 to determine the predictive validity of CPA mock board examination to CPALE performance of Cavite State University accountancy graduates' batch 2016 to 2019. It specifically aimed to describe the background of the participants, their point of view in terms of the difficulties encountered on the subjects taken during the mock board examination and CPA licensure examinations and influence of mock board examination towards CPA licensure examination and its relationship.
This was conducted in the academic year 2020 to 2021 to academic year 2021 to 2022. Quantitative descriptive research method was used in this study. Primary data were collected among the participants specifically using direct surveys. With the use of frequency and percentage, the study revealed that the most difficult subject on the mock board examination for them was both Financial Accounting and Reporting and Regulatory Framework for Business Transaction. On the other hand, the most difficult subject on the CPA licensure examination for them was both Taxation and Regulatory Framework for Business Transaction. Upon application of Pearson product-moment correlation test, the results revealed that mock board examination and CPA licensure examination yielded a p- value of .049, which further implies that mock board examination has a weak significant positive relationship to Certified Public Accountant licensure examination.
To further support the findings of the study, this research recommends conducting a study with more participants in a larger scope, improve the questionnaire not limited to the difficulties on the subject but also to the personal experiences and difficulties upon taking the examinations and try to include other factors such as the academic performance of the accountancy graduates during undergraduate years to emphasize a more valid and accurate claim on the predictive validity of mock board examination on CPALE performance
