Pwedeng sabihing “madali” (I’d avoid it though) but it should be contextualized. “Madali” not because the standards are lax or because it’s an exercise of pity. “Madali” because it is reasonable: the exam was meant to test what’s essential, what’s taught, and what’s covered.
ig instead of telling newly CPAs "choose wisely" when considering the industries they want to apply to, we should js say "choose what's best for you now." The former phrase casts doubt and anxiety while the latter is more reaffirming, me thinks.
