Memorial University (MUN) pharmacy does not list Casper. Selection for the PharmD is 65% academic score and 35% interview, with a minimum academic score of 70%, and the interview itself is virtual and asynchronous, built on behavioural questions about your real past experiences. That makes personal stories the centre of your preparation.
Does Memorial pharmacy require CASPer?
No. Memorial (MUN) does not list Casper on its admissions pages for Newfoundland and Labrador or out-of-province applicants. Casper does apply to Memorial’s MD program: see Memorial medicine.

Behavioural questions reward the same skills as how to answer “tell me about yourself” and why personal stories beat templates.

How do you prepare for the Memorial pharmacy recorded interview?
A recorded interview removes the person across the table, so structure and delivery to the camera carry the answer. Arvin Ardakani has applicants record timed answers, then marks them personally and has them retry. The same habits apply as in the early-phase MMI: answer the task, decide, follow through, and look at the lens. Take the free mock interview or see the Interview course.
