What schools require Casper? And if I reapply next cycle should I plan to retake both Casper and preview again. My scores are from later in the cycle August-October. Thoughts?

With only 7 schools requiring Preview it should be pretty easy to leave those off your list.
I haven’t seen an updated CASPer list yet but most of the TMDSAS schools require it, so if using TMDSAS you will need to retake it.

 

[Mr.Smile12]

Casper scores are only valid for the application calendar year in which they are taken. You will have to retake your Casper exam for the upcoming cycle.

PREview is designed to be valid for more than one cycle. If you had 7+, I would not recommend retaking it.

How situational judgment tests help medical schools evaluate applicants

Despite strong academic records, applicants remain skeptical of SJTs' relevance in med school admissions, highlighting concerns about transparency and impact on diversity.

MSAR report on Situational Judgment Tests for AMCAS schools is available on PDF last updated April 2, 2024.

 

[Mr.Smile12]

1. UC Irvine (for those invited to interview)

Other assessments

1. Stryker/Western Michigan (WMEd Online Assessment and Telephone Interview, see MSAR reports and website)

[Mr.Smile12]

Bump.

30 schools are added to the PREview website as "Research only." As far as I know, this means they can access your PREview scores during the application cycle as opposed to the end of the cycle (which is what every AMCAS school could do regardless of desire to use PREview). Please confirm with the admissions teams at the schools if they receive your PREview scoring history during the cycle or at the end if they are using PREview for "research."

 

[Mr.Smile12]

Bump to revise the Casper list.

[Mr.Smile12]

Submitting PREview scores to participating schools (from PREview website)​

To help students taking the PREview exam and submitting their scores to participating schools:

1. PREview scores are automatically released to AMCAS. Examinees do not need to take additional steps to include their PREview score in their AMCAS applications.
2. Applicants applying to schools that do not use AMCAS will have an opportunity at the end of the exam to select the schools to receive their score reports. NOTE: Those applying to TMDSAS or AACOMAS should select the appropriate schools listed to deliver results.

 

[Mr.Smile12]

To moderators setting up new Current Applicant Threads for 2025 entering classes: please use these listings in your program profiles, noting things may be updated here through June as final information is published on the use of SJTs in the cycle.

Suggest adding:
Casper required (Y/N)
PREview (required [for interview], recommended, or research), send scores directly to TMDSAS or AACOMAS programs
Recorded video interview (Kira Talent, SVI)
Interview format (from past cycles): traditional, panel (more evaluators than applicants), group (more applicants than evaluators), MMI, other required activity (like on-site essay writing)

Consider including in WAMC templates
SJT (Casper/PREview) score
