They said on their insta q&a that if you haven’t received an acknowledgment with your kent vision details you should email them to let them know and make sure you add their email to your contacts so you don’t miss future emails. Their email address is [email protected] I believe x

Do most who sit Casper get an interview?


They said not necessarily on their Instagram Q&As, the CASPer score contributes to your overall score which is what they then use to invite people to interviews basically.

What does the overall score consist of? For example, is it the combination of your UCAT and Casper score?

Depends on your group. So if you’re a graduate (post degree, group D) your score is calculated by considering:
-Your degree class (1st or 2.1)
-Kent residence/education
-Employment in the NHS for more than 6 months (idk if this is employment in NHS kent or just NHS because I’ve read different things)
-CASPer score
-SJT maybe (I am not 100% sure of this so don’t quote me on this!!)
They also said that their scoring system for graduates is always under review and they can only give details on last year.
For the group of school leavers that do CASPer, I’m not exactly sure what they use to score but I’m guessing again kent residence/education, NHS employment, SJT and GCSEs maybe? You could drop them an email to ask about this if you fall into this group :smile:

'We note that you have not listed any further experience after completing your A Levels in June 2022. Please clarify what you will be doing until September 2023 (e.g. further study, employment, gap year etc).'

What is everyone else answering this with? Just a blunt 'gap year' or should we give a bit more into what we will be doing over the year? I think its only applicable to gap year students. Any suggestions are welcome.

I had a look at last year's thread and it seemed like interviews were given out early December

Reply 73

anyone else in group c? they provide literally no details on how we're going to be scored. like are we going to be ranked alongside graduates taking the caspar or what? so annoying

Reply 74

Well my colleague who got in last year said that her Casper score, where she scored in the top 25% enabled her to get an interview. She got an offer from KMMS. She was in group C.

I logged onto the Kent Hub thing and they told me to answer that question and told me it was due by the 27th. I just wrote a short paragraph on what I'll be doing over the year. Hope this helps.
