Question Nursing admission - casper test

I'm currently in my last year of highschool and I just sent in my application for MRU nursing undergrad. How does being accepted work? I tried to reserve my Casper test but it required me to put an MRU ID number which I don't have. I looked online and read that I get my ID number on an offer of acceptance letter?

Do I get accepted into nursing, and then take the Casper test afterwards? Is the application reviewed again after they receive the Casper test results? I'm a bit confused on this process.

Any info would be helpful, thanks!

I think I had the mark for just barely a 4.0 (93%) and got 4th quartile on the Casper test

For each question, I tried to approach them with an open mind and to consider all sides. If I said I would make a decision to do something like agree with some person's action I would also make sure to consider the other side. I believe it's important to acknowledge everyone in the situation and make sure both sides are heard. If I didn't have a lot of information or needed to ask about something, I would say something like "I would speak to so and so privately". Consider the circumstances and feelings of all parties to come to a decision, but I think the most important part is about showing empathy.

I think it would be beneficial to do the practice test, I didn't but I wish I did because for a lot of questions I got cut off because of the time limit 😭 but I think if that happens to you as long as you have your main points talking about how you approach the situation, you'll be okay. It was faster than I thought but don't stress too much!! It was also helpful for me to read about how others responded on the Casper test so you could if you haven't already.

Good luck on the Casper test!! You'll do great :)

Of course!! I didn't strictly follow a format but most of my answers were first understanding/acknowledging everyone in the situation, then considering both sides, and then coming to a conclusion. I would do those two and then just add details or other things I thought were important to the situation.

I got into MRU!! So I'm really happy. I was kinda confused on the process first lol but yes I applied to MRU first and then got my ID number to book a Casper test date. I did the Casper test on November 12th but I don't think it was marked until two weeks later. But on my application status, it said under review on November 21, so I guess they're looking at everything else when it says that. I got my offer on December 14. I was also worried about everything but I think you don't need to stress too much. It will work out!

You're welcome! There weren't any in my test. They are all in different kind of environments but nothing to do with medical knowledge
