How much does a good Casper score help?

Hi all, I've been thinking about Casper lately and I'm curious if my 4th quartile score can really help my application. I know it definitely can't hurt to do well but I was wondering how the score was being looked at by schools. For example, is it seen as another metric along with GPA and MCAT or is it something that is looked at along with your ECs, essays, etc? How much of a boost can my 4th quartile give me? I know it's likely different for each school but I'd appreciate any insight

Nobody really knows tbh. Each school uses it to a different degree, while in Canada they apparently place a very high value on Casper. A good score certainly won’t hurt you, but the degree to which it improves your application, nobody here (except maybe an adcom) can tell you.
