CASPer Practice Test Answers: Is There an Answer Key?
No. There is no official answer key for the CASPer practice test, and it is not graded. Acuity says practice responses are not saved, scored or reviewed, and no feedback is provided. CASPer questions are open-ended, so there is no single correct answer to look up. You review your practice answers yourself, against what raters actually assess.
What Acuity says about the practice test
Acuity's practice test article says answers are not saved or submitted, and no feedback is provided. Its preparation page, updated in October 2026, adds that practice responses are not scored or reviewed. It also says the practice test is meant to familiarize you with CASPer, not to reflect the specific content or difficulty of your actual test.
- Access: log in to your Acuity Insights account after reserving your test, open the CASPer section and choose the practice test.
- Repeats: you can take it as many times as you like.
- Accommodations: if you have approved extra time, Acuity says your approval letter includes a separate practice-test link with your timing.
Our official CASPer practice test guide covers access and timing in more detail.
Why there is no CASPer answer key
CASPer is not marked against a fixed answer. According to Acuity's scoring explanation, trained raters score each question individually, focusing on the substance and quality of your response, which shows your thought process, judgment and communication. Ratings are then standardized against the applicant pool.
Two applicants can make opposite decisions and both answer well, if each explains a defensible action and its reasons. That is why a list of “correct answers” would not tell you how your own response would be rated.
What about answer-key PDFs and Reddit answers?
Searches for CASPer answers surface PDFs and mirror sites, many with generic or recycled content. None of them is an official key, because Acuity does not publish one. Acuity also says it does not endorse third-party preparation materials.
Sample answers written by other people can still help you see one way to reason through a scenario. Treat them as examples to critique, not answers to memorize. Our honest take on CASPer PDFs explains where they help and where they waste time.
How to review your own practice answers
Because the practice test does not save your responses, jot down your main points on paper right after each scenario, or answer a fresh scenario in a document you keep. Then check each answer against the points below, which come from Acuity's published guidance.
| Check | Ask yourself | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Both questions answered | Did each of the two questions get its own answer? | Acuity scores each question individually. |
| A clear action | Can a reader tell what you would actually do? | Acuity asks you to explain what you would do and why. |
| The reason | Did you explain why, not only what? | Acuity's preparation page says to explain your motivations. |
| Other perspectives | Did you consider the other people involved in a meaningful way? | Acuity links higher quartiles with considering all perspectives. |
| Effort and time | Did you use the time to explain your position fully? | Acuity links higher quartiles with full explanations and using the time. |
| Clarity | Would a stranger follow your point on a first read or listen? | Raters assess communication as well as judgment. |

A worked review
This scenario and response are original examples, not official CASPer content or a rated answer.
Scenario: A classmate asks to copy your lab report because they have been caring for a sick parent and are out of time. Question 1: What would you do? Question 2: Would your answer change if the classmate had asked before?
I would say no to sharing my report because it would be academic dishonesty for both of us. I would help in other ways, like explaining my approach or telling them to ask the instructor for an extension.
- Clear action: yes. The answer refuses and offers alternatives.
- Reason: partly. It names dishonesty but not the risk to the classmate or the fairness to others.
- Perspectives: thin. The classmate's situation is not acknowledged.
- Both questions: no. Question 2 is unanswered, which matters because each question is scored on its own.
A stronger revision would acknowledge the pressure the classmate is under, explain why an extension protects them better than copying, and then answer question 2 separately. Our CASPer answer structure guide shows a repeatable way to organize that.
