Implementing Casper is in line with our Guiding Principles of seeking excellence, fairness, and inclusivity in our selection process by using tools that have demonstrated reliability and validity for medical school admissions. 听The MDCM Admissions committee carefully reviewed the evidence-based research conducted at McMaster University during the test鈥檚 development and implementation, and approved the adoption of Casper since the听Fall 2018 MDCM and Medicine Qualifying Year听admission. 听Casper represents an improvement to our process because of its researched reliability and predictive validity for the non-academic competencies we are required to take into consideration.
