Quick Answer
For most applicants in the 2026-2027 cycle, CASPer includes 11 scenarios: 4 video-response scenarios followed by 7 typed-response scenarios. Each video scenario has 2 questions, with 1 minute to record each answer. Each typed scenario has 2 questions shown together, with 3.5 minutes total to answer both.
The best timing strategy is simple: give a direct judgment, explain the reason, acknowledge the people affected, and finish with a concrete next step. Do not save all your best thinking for a perfect ending. CASPer rewards clear, complete responses more than overbuilt answers that run out of time.
