PPAP 1003-Everything You Need to Know about the CASPer Exam and the AAMC PREview Exam

The CASPer Exam is an online situational judgment test administered by Altus Assessments that is used by many medical schools, both allopathic and osteopathic, to determine whether an applicant possesses professionalism and certain non-cognitive skills such as collaboration, motivation, ethics, and empathy. The PREview Exam is another situational judgment test that is administered by the AAMC.

Certain medical schools are requiring the PREview Exam to determine whether an applicant possesses the AAMC's 8 core competencies for medical school applicants. Medical school applicants may need to take the PREview exam---in addition to the CASPer exam---if the medical schools they are applying to require it. In addition to the MCAT, applicants to medical schools will need to sit for the CASPer exam as well as the PREview exam prior to submitting their applications.
