' In making the tests available ,or wider use, Harold R. Caffyn, -hairrAan of the American Insti- J4 ute's Committee on Selection of ir Personnel, said: "The Institute a ias supported this project as a di iervice to students. We hope it - vill give the student an early in- P lication as to whether or not P rears of specialized study ai c tard work as a beginner are like y in his case to result in a suc lessful career in the profession or 'elated pursuits. It should also help accounting firms to judge the qualifications of prospective Lmployces." More than 60,000 individual ex aminations were given to develop and verify the tests now offered.
