1. In terms of A- level entry requirements, what is classified as a 'biological science'? Does PE count?
2. Current student nurses, do you have much of a social life as placement probably takes up the majority of your time? Do you have the time to be part of societies/ sports clubs?
3.Is it possible to juggle a part time job as well as placement? How do you survive financially if not? Are bursuries sufficient?
4.Do nurses get the same holidays as other courses? I've heard they get longer because of leave but I've also heard they get shorter because of placement and have a shorter summer than other courses?
5. Are there many exams on a nursing course? I'm trying to steer away from exams and adapt a more vocational course after a-levels, GCSEs etc.
6. What universities are recommended for nursing I'm looking at North West universities if possible. Does anyone recommend the following unis for nursing: Edge Hill, Liverpool, Manchester?
