Hi guys, i've just read your threads. I also applied to bucks new uni but for adult nursing. my interview is in march and i am already really nervous! lol..how did your interview go? what was the tests like and what kind of questions did they ask in the interview? any help will be really appreciated! thanks and good luck! :smile:


hey, i didnt go to the interview, as it was short notice and I could not arrange child care. But I was given a new date for the interview in March too, the 29th, how about you? I know another girl from here, I think Jesse-dee, who went to the interview. I am sure she will be able to help you. You can also practise the maths test on move on or bbc skills wise. I am so very nervous too, although I have about 2 months time to prepare.

Hey I think I may be going to that too! I have however just been invited to an interview on 7th March!
Have you had an interview there ?
It's my favourite university!
So worried as I'm applying for a postgraduate diploma I have to do an extended CV and it seems so complicated! Where else have you applied? x


I had an interview last week. (With less than 2 days notice) I've applied to Kingston and UWL. I'm not doing pgd though so not sure if the interview process is different. But it was really chilled, I was so nervous as it was my first choice and had no prep time but they really try and loosen you up before they send you into the interview. Such lovely staff :smile:

do not worry about the math test. You get given a help sheet to look at during the test so even if you are rubbish at maths, every question can be applied to one of the examples in the help sheet.

I got a conditional offer from Surrey for Childrens Nursing this afternoon - 2 offers in one day :biggrin:

The interview is fine, they were really relaxed and friendly. The literacy was a couple of short questions, one long one and correcting errors in a letter.

Good luck


Thanks Skinroll :smile: did they give you a few health topics to choose from or could you write about any?


thanks for the advise v.helpful :smile:

LJMU rejected me pre-interview also, and I got the predicted grades! I e-mailed them and they told me 'because I don't have the grades' even though I did.
I think they just had better offers.

No choice, they gave a slightly controversial statement and you had to discuss it in a short essay.
