CASPer test, any insight?

[SEPF]

I am a Practical Nurse in Ontario Canada, and have just applied to several colleges for the RPN-->BSCN bridging program. There are a couple schools here (affiliated with McMaster) that require all new nursing applicants to take a certain CASPer test to evaluate "non-cognitive skills and interpersonal communication".

So, I am wondering if any of you have taken this test before, what I should expect, and how (if at all) I should prepare for it. Thank you, any insight is appreciated.

(P.S. I am not posting this to the exclusively Canadian forum because apparently CASPer is a US based test that is also use in various American schools).

I'm an RPN-BScN student through Mac and didn't have to do this test, it's relatively new I'm assuming as I've never even heard of it. My friend who just started the bridging program in September '15 didn't have to do it either, so you probably won't get any responses from current Mac students as I think the incoming class this September is the first to have to do this test, but hopefully others have some input!
