stemcellgodess Posted October 22, 2011 Report Share Posted October 22, 2011 Without violating any confidentiality agreement, how do you all feel about it? I ran out of time twice for two of the answers. But since there were what, 36 questions, I think it would be okay. I kinda fumbled through some of the personal questions. My mind was racing and I was trying to think, and the only thing I could think of was what had first came to mind, but that was an immature answer so I kept trying to think of something. Before I knew it, 30 seconds had passed and I knew I only had another 30 seconds to answer that question. Overall, I think I did pretty good. But I really need to do well since I have a 9 in VR and my GPA is crap. Maybe my grad degrees can get me past the initial screening... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
targn Posted October 22, 2011 Report Share Posted October 22, 2011 Felt kinda dumb after it...ran out of time on two questions too, but I think I got the gist of my answer in. I probably have some hilarious typos too, but nothing we can do about it now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apixaban85 Posted October 22, 2011 Report Share Posted October 22, 2011 Do you guys feel preparation helped? Or did you even bother preparing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leon Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 Do you guys feel preparation helped? Or did you even bother preparing? I'm not prepping, other than reading the first 3 chapters of Doing Right (just for a general idea). I feel like this is one test that you just don't have to study for. Ah, if only the rest of undergrad was like this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vdincale Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 I did some practice but felt like it didn't really help. Just thinking of some examples from your life to common interview questions is probably the best idea (i.e. one time when you solved a problem) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leon Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 Is it exactly 90 mins long? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astr1x Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 Is it exactly 90 mins long? Depends on how long you take for your break Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diceroll2011 Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 I feel pretty good after the test. I definitely think you can prepare for the majority of the test, although there are definitely one or two unexpected curve balls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cass Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 Depends on how long you take for your break Haha. so true! I only took 5 minutes. Just wanted to get it over with and move on with my Sunday =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desiallstar Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 That was quite fun! Although definitely a few to throw you outside your comfort zone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cokezero Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 I feel satisfied about my performance. I was able to answer all questions. Preparation definitely helped. Like the other posters said, I agree that there were a few curve balls! Glad it's over and now I can relax!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cclawfjj Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 does anyone know if the same evaluator assesses all three questions pertaining to a case/scenario/topic? I ask since some of my answers are continuations from prior answers or have some connections to 'em I hope this makes sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTJ Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 I agree it was a little fun Maybe that means I'm too opinionated and love to have my thoughts/decisions heard? lol For me it was almost exactly 90 min, I only took a 10 min break. I prepared a little bit, but felt it didn't help a great deal. The test felt like they wanted to get a sense of who you are, how you would act and why... which is what I was told to begin with, but I mean now it felt like it was much less a "test".

MrsSnrub Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 I felt quite good while doing it, but now looking back...I feel as if I didn't actually say anything! I just kind of rambled nonsensically. Ack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, i get what you're feeling - now that im reflecting back, i wish i had said some things for some of the questions. casper takes thinking on your feet to a whole new level lol. The test went by so fast that i thought there were still more questions when in fact, i had finished the test Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
animo_acid Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 I think it's kind of a fun thing to do....however, I was unable to address the pros and cons in the questions due to the limited amount of time... Do they tell you your CASPer score? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imperfection Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 just finished CASPer! wow.. the time DOES pass by amazingly fast. I thought I still had a few questions left to go at the end! time is definitely an issue. not sure how you are supposed to portray your thoughts accurately in 5 minutes for 3 questions!

I really wished I could see questions before video so that I partially prepare for the answer during video... well its done anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgwonsukee Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 I thought it went as well as it could have. A couple of the scenarios were difficult, and I was getting tired toward the end, but no technical problems so I'm happy! Was able to finish all questions. Does anyone know if we're supposed to receive a completion email? I havent received anything. I received survey completion e-mail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardParker Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 Noob question, but the survey at the end is anonymous right? Cause I really let them know how I feel lol... (all good stuff though haha) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, and one of the video scenarios was pretty hysterical! Does anyone know if we're supposed to receive a completion email? I havent received anything. yep definitely happy about no technical problems! I just got a completion email 5mins after I submitted. all it says is my name and "Thank you for completing the survey" did you get an email congratulating you for starting the survey? I got that as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
