Another hopeful here... just wanted to say hi to everyone! I’m not sure if I’m more nervous about my Casper results or my supplemental (is it possible to give ‘too much’ information?). Oh well! Fingers crossed for the next few months..

Hi Nursing2019!

Yep, the next few months will be nerve-wracking, but again, we’re in this together.

My CASPer’s on Sunday at 2pm :p

Today is the last day of CASPer assessments!!

Good luck to everyone who still needs to take it!! (Including myself)

I actually rescheduled it from 2pm to 5pm PST.

Don't forget to check your CASPer System Requirements and try out the Sample CASPer if you haven't done so already ?

I'm not even sure what I wrote, but I hope it was good! Haha. Now it's the real waiting game, should be fun.

lol yeah — I’m saying it went well for me only ‘cause I tried to type as fast as I can, but I definitely got burnt out near the end and might not’ve written everything I wanted to write. 5 min time limit to answer 3 q’s screws you up :p

What I ended up doing was type “see question 1” if I already answered what the 2nd question was asking ‘cause it saved time. I noticed the 1st q. was usually the most important, while the next 2 were just follow-up/additional pondering.

Oh man, good luck!!! Since I finished my Casper test Sunday, the school should receive my results in ~3 weeks according to Casper website, so I’ll probs see changes in my status then

My status changed too, and I just wrote the Casper on Sunday! It changes once they attach your transcripts to your file. I'm so nervous!

Hi everyone!

I'm pretty late to this forum but it's great to know that there are a bunch of you out there who are also anxiously waiting like me >.< I did that Casper test on the last day (Sunday) and boy was it something...

Looking forward to the next few months! All the best to everyone ?

Hi xo.ms and welcome!! ☺️

lol I personally think the CASPer was a waste of time — studying for it was pretty much moot considering the questions were written as straightforward and open-ended ones; I barely applied the PPDJ method unless they asked for us to “explain why” we thought a certain way/made a certain choice.

Anyway, I don’t remember what I wrote. It went really fast, but I’d like to think we all tried our best!
