University of Manchester Nursing 2012

oh sounds interesting. yes Manchester is very impressive! where do you live then? I live in a town near Bolton xx

I live in Stockport, so not too far away! Ahh Boltons not far either,I'm guessing you will be commuting?
What branch are you going to be studying? xxx

ah, you don't live far away at all do you I won't be commuting actually, I want to live in with other students so I can take every opportunity to get involved and also moving away will be quite exciting. My town is like in between Blackburn and Bolton- it's called Darwen.

I want to study adult branch so I will be applying through Extra very shortly. xxx

Good luck hun xxx

Ah fallowfields does sound really good! i like the fact it will be a little be quieter (espec for nursing) and yeah im thinking an ensuit for the same reasons too! will have to do some more researching i think just got to work to get the grades now though, im sure it will be worth it... haha.

yeah I'll keep you posted about what happens

that sounds like you had a good experience at the interview which is always good how long do you think it lasted and did you just have to answer some questions or something?
I was interviewed at edge hill and leeds for child but both weren't the best experience and I didn't feel comfortable really.

This offer is the only motivation i have to get all of my work done and get revising :'(! im thinking of richmond park or oak house in particular! i really hope im with other nurses though !

Heyy, I won't be living in accomodation, I only live 20-25 minutes away by train so will be commuting each day, can't wait, absolutely loved Manchester University and felt really comfortable at the interview and really welcome on the open day!
It sure has got to be done, and the thing that is motivating me the most is that it is one of the best Uni's in the world for nursing and research.
What branch have you applied for?xxx

Good point just looked at the accommodation on the website and they both sound lovely! and me too!who knows we may end up in the same accommodation, haha x

oh god i cant even remember how long it lasted, it was probably about half an hour or so because it was a group interview and everyone answered each question but it really just flew in !
they asked why do you want to be a nurse, why manchester, what would you do if you had a patient who couldnt speak english & you were waiting for an interpretor, what would be the biggest difficulty with nursing and whats the main advantage of nursing.
i felt that they were all really good questions and the interviewees would ask the question then you each answer, sometimes they'll go round the circle in order, other times they just let you raise you hand and you can answer more than once if you think of something to add which was great.

Wow, I'm so relieved to see other mature/second time around students - I was panicking thinking I might be the only one!

Is anyone else applying for private halls? I turned down my accommodation offer after being allocated George Kenyon halls, which I wanted until I saw how much the 2012-13 rent was!

Also, has anyone had their occupational health check yet? Mine's on Thursday, bit nervous!

Hi everyone!
