The CASPer Test - Computer-Based Assessment for Sampling Personal Characteristics

All applicants to the Undergraduate Dental Programs at 捆绑SM社区 are required to complete an online assessment (CASPer^TM) test prior to their application deadline. Completion of CASPer is mandatory in order to maintain admission eligibility.

CASPer assesses for non-cognitive skills and interpersonal characteristics that we believe are important for successful students and graduates of our program, and will complement the other tools that we use for applicant screening. In implementing CASPer, we are trying to further enhance fairness and objectivity in our selection process.

The CASPer test is comprised of 12 sections of video and written scenarios. Following each scenario, you will be required to answer a set of probing questions under a time contract. Each response is graded by a different rater, giving a very robust and reliable view of personal and professional characteristics important to our program. No studying is required for CASPer, although you may want to and ensure you have a quiet environment to take the test. We strongly urge you to take advantage of the 12-section practice test, which will not only immerse you in the test environment but will also ensure you meet the technical requirements to access and complete the test. You can also watch this to learn more about the test or consult the .

In order to take CASPer, you will be responsible for securing access to a laptop or desktop computer with webcam and audio capabilities. No exceptions will be provided for applicants unable to take CASPer online due to being located at sites where internet is not dependable due to technical or political factors.

You will require the following for both account creation and completing CASPer:

• Government-issued photo ID
• Valid email address (the same one you will use to submit your application)
• Working webcam
• Working microphone
• Reliable high-speed internet connection
