Question 1

Four days before a group presentation is due, one member has missed three planning meetings and has submitted none of their assigned slides. Which response would a Casper rater most likely score highest?

Accepted Answer

Contact them privately to ask what has happened and agree on a specific, achievable contribution

Answer

Quietly redistribute their slides among the remaining members so the presentation is not put at risk

Answer

Email the instructor now so the lack of contribution is documented before the deadline

Answer

Raise the missed work at the next full group meeting so everyone hears the same account

Question 2

On a typed Casper scenario, a candidate writes a detailed, well-reasoned answer to the first question and runs out of time before starting the second. How is this scored?

Accepted Answer

Both questions are scored separately, so the unanswered one counts against the total

Answer

The scenario receives a single score, based only on the one answer the candidate actually provided

Answer

The unanswered question is disregarded and does not affect the candidate's total

Answer

The rater substitutes the candidate's average score from their other scenarios

Question 3

A close friend tells you something in confidence that makes clear a third person is likely to be harmed. Which response is strongest?

Accepted Answer

Tell your friend you intend to raise it with someone who can help, explain why, and then do so

Answer

Keep the confidence, because breaking a promise would damage trust and make your friend less likely to confide in anyone again

Answer

Report it to the appropriate person without telling your friend, so they cannot interfere first

Answer

Encourage your friend to disclose it themselves, and take no further action if they refuse

Question 4

A candidate receives their Casper result and reports being in the first quartile. What does this indicate?

Accepted Answer

They scored in the bottom 25% of their comparison group

Answer

They scored in the top 25% of their comparison group

Answer

They placed above the median but below the top quartile

Answer

Quartiles indicate participation only and are not ranked by performance

Question 5

A Casper question asks how a coworker who reacted angrily during a meeting is likely feeling. Which response best demonstrates empathy rather than sympathy?

Accepted Answer

He may have felt his contribution was dismissed, especially if he has been carrying extra work lately

Answer

I would feel sorry for him, because it is upsetting to lose your temper in front of colleagues

Answer

His reaction was understandable, and I would not judge him for it

Answer

I would give him space and check in with him later, once he has calmed down

Question 6

Which of the following describes the structure of the current Casper test?

Accepted Answer

Eleven scenarios of two questions each: four video, seven typed

Answer

Fourteen scenarios, each with three typed questions and a five-minute response window

Answer

Twelve scenarios of three questions each, all answered in writing

Answer

Nine scenarios, evenly divided between video and typed responses, with three questions each

Question 7

A candidate's entire response to a scenario reads: "What she did was completely unprofessional. No one should behave that way toward a colleague, and it should not be tolerated." What is the principal weakness of this response?

Accepted Answer

It asserts a judgment without reasoning through the situation

Answer

It is too brief to make use of the time available

Answer

It uses language that is too informal for a formal assessment

Answer

It evaluates another person's conduct rather than the candidate's own

Question 8

Who evaluates a candidate's Casper responses?

Accepted Answer

Trained human raters, with a different rater assigned to each scenario

Answer

An automated scoring model, with human review only of the responses it flags

Answer

Admissions staff at each of the programs the candidate selected for score distribution

Answer

A single trained rater who reviews the candidate's complete test

Question 9

A response identifies both competing obligations in a dilemma, chooses one, and explains the reason for choosing it. Which addition would most strengthen it?

Accepted Answer

A statement of how the cost to the obligation not chosen would be reduced

Answer

A more detailed account of the practical steps involved in carrying out the chosen action

Answer

An acknowledgement that reasonable people might disagree with the choice

Answer

A clear statement that the candidate found the decision genuinely difficult

Question 10

With about 50 seconds left on a typed scenario, a candidate has fully answered the first question, has noticed several typing errors in it, and has not begun the second question. What is the best use of the remaining time?

Accepted Answer

Write a brief decision and its reasoning for the second question

Answer

Correct the typing errors, since written responses are read closely by raters

Answer

Add a follow-up step to the first answer to make it more complete

Answer

Add a sentence acknowledging the opposing view to the first answer
