Comprehensive Examination 1
Comprehensive Examination 1 (COMEX1) is given to all incoming BS Accountancy third year students.
This covers all accounting, law and taxation courses required for first year and second year students in
the BSA curriculum. The exam is divided into four subjects: (1) Intermediate Accounting, (2) Cost
Accounting and Management, (3) Income Taxation, and (4) Business Law.
All students who passed the MQE and all the accounting, law and taxation courses of the second-year
curriculum are required to take and pass the COMEX1 to continue with the BS Accountancy program. The
passing rate for this examination is 65% average, with no score lower than 50% in any subject. If a
student failed the COMEX1, he or she will not be allowed to continue with the BS Accountancy program.
Students are encouraged to shift to BS Accounting Information Systems program. In BSAIS, they will be
accepted as regular students (provided they passed all the BSA first year and second year courses) and
all their courses will be credited.
Tax rates shall be provided in the examination when candidates are required to compute taxes.
