If you must, focus on only one or two of the questions. They're not supposed to penalize you for not answering all the questions. Just answer as many as you can the best you can. You might also want to get someone to evaluate your practice answers. If you have any CASPer prep questions PM me. 9 hours ago, jul059 said: I know how you feel.

I don't think my CASPer totally killed my app, I forgot to mention here that I did get a McGill interview with my CASPer. It's just that I think it could have been much better and was not representative of my abilities to respond appropriately in real-time situations. I am a mature student and never learned how to type, and although I'm working on it now, it's just a bit harder to pick it up in your thirties.... I'm a bit put off by a test that supposedly measures one thing but is so dependant on one's ability to type quickly. That's all. Being OOP doesn't help with this school either. Thanks guys!

But, not good enough to counterbalance lower GPA and CARS evidently!

random_dent Posted April 11, 2018 Report Share Posted April 11, 2018 Super late to the game, but just thought I'd drop it here for data purposes. Time Stamp: 2:21 PM Invite/Reject: Invite GPA: 3.39 CARS: 132 CASPer: Felt okay but I second guessed it a lot. I'm a fast typer and a non-traditional applicant (very late 20s, Arts Student, management job and activist volunteering) so think the varied life experience helped.
