westcoastbestcoast Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 So UBC's adopting CASPer this year - as i understand it's essentially a video interview? Can anyone elaborate on its role in admissions? Does it replace MMI? Is it more difficult? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mp99 Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 I believe it's actually a written interview. So basically you read a question and then write your response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clapton Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 It's like the MMI's but you write it instead. In short: - 12 stations (about a situation or about yourself) - 3 questions per station - 5 minutes to write your answers * You can take a 10-15 min break halfway through.

medoc Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 Can the answers be in point form on CASPer? I think MMIs are still happening but my guess is that this assessment is going to be used pre-interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
