Préparation: Test CASPer
Avec un nombre croissant d'écoles et de programmes qui exigent leurs applicants a passer le teste CASPer, sa formation en est essentielle. Le test CASPer est un test de personnalité virtuel qui sélectionne les candidats sur des caractéristiques telles que la collaboration, la communication, l'empathie et l'équité. Nous comprenons qu'il peut être difficile de mettre en valeur ces qualités, surtout sous pression. C'est pour cela que nous pensons qu'avoir un coach qui vous guide et vous soutient tout au long du processus peut vous aider énormement!
What is the CASPer test?
100-120 minute online situational personality test divided into two sections (verbal & typed) meant to determine behavioural tendencies when placed in delicate situations. The test will present you with realistic hypothetical scenarios and ask what you would do in such situations and why.
Why is the CASPer test important?
Medical schools are not only interested in students who are academically capable but in those who also possess the right personal & professional qualities that are more likely going to make them successful healthcare professionals. In addition, some medical schools won't consider applicants unless they perform well on this test, making scoring in the top quartiles crucial.
How do we prep our students for the CASPer test?
We begin our prep with an introductory session where test format is broken down & explained in detail. Given that the CASPer test often changes format, beginning with the session allows students to know exactly what to expect. Focus is then shifted on highlighting important strategies, tips & tricks and successful approaches needed to answer questions thoroughly & uniquely. Last but certainly not least, practice scenarios! The last part of the prep involves the completion of ample prompts followed by feedback and guidance from coaches. Together student and coach dissect responses and highlight was could be improved.
