University of leeds adult nursing (2015 start)

I hope it's only one! Can't remember them saying about references tbh, can't wait till it's all over and done with! X

Haha snap I can't wait for it to all be done and I'll be in uni! X

here's the facebook group hun, https://www.facebook.com/groups/812907455430462/members/ x

I'm third year.
We do 24 hours placement a week then Thursday 9-3 and Friday 10-12. But that's due to change.
I do long days or nights, out of personal choice.

When is this due to change do you know? also when you are back in uni and not on placement, do you do the 37 and a half hours in uni each week throughout the year? as other universities do blocks of theory and placement without mixing the two up.

also how many weeks placement do you have per year or per placement? is there a variation of hospital and community?

I did 19 weeks in first year (3 in community), 25 weeks in second year (11 in community) and 17 weeks so far of third year (2 in community). You have a final placement of 12 weeks which you can either choose hospital or community for.

Thank you for that...another question sorry - what is the academic work like? do you have many assignments on the go or are they all spaced out? do you do osces and presentations as well?
Thanks

Don't apologise for asking questions, I understand what it's like to be in your position!

First year assignments are very spaced out, you have about 2-3 essays and then your OSCE.
Second year is very chilled to start with but then we got mad busy around March-April time.
Third year is pretty much full on from the word go, it flies by which is an issue when you have loads of work to do!

My advice, and I know we all start with the best of intentions, is to get it done early. Or at least get a plan together so you can write it quickly

If anyone has any questions, I'm a first-year adult nursing student at leeds, so went through the whole process only last year

Hey guys! I've selected Leeds as my firm choice and applied for Tannery

I think I'm going to do the same! Good luck for your exams

You too!! Hopefully see everyone in September!
