Hi, well done you. Do you mind me asking what kind of questions were you were asked at your interview, generally like.

Thank you ������ I was asked some general questions, why I want to be a LD nurse, what are my qualities, what does the course involve? But the main question I was asked was, I have to take a patient to dentist, they're scared and afraid, what kind of things would I do leading up to it to ease them? Hope this helps.

Hey guys, I was wondering is there anywhere I could find news and updates about LD nursing in the UK, I've no good source and if I were to be asked about anything in an interview I wouldn't know where to start..I've tried the NHS website but I could only find information about LD nursing as a career..I'm not in the U.K so newspapers aren't really an option :/

Hi, have you tried looking on BBC news/health website. I prefer to look on there sometimes, then the information I find I do extra research to back up findings

Ah that's great, thanks a million! Was finding it difficult to find resources...Do you think I would be best off looking at the NHS in general or concentrating mainly on LD nursing?

I HATE WAITINGG!!! Glad everyone on here have heard or had interviews and thats all I wanted to check when I found this thread. Seems like the universities in the north west are taking foreverrrrrrrr and im too impatient! My UCAS app was finally sent just before Christmas as my college tutor took 6 weeks to do my reference. So was wondering if anyone who applied just before Christmas has heard from:- Chester, Edge Hill, Banger, Wolverhampton and Birmingham?

Hi, I applied to Edge Hill and Bangor too. I sent my application off the beginning of Dec too, I haven't heard anything back from Bangor at all. However I have heard from Edge Hill they offered me an interview just before Christmas. Hope you hear back soon! best of luck

I finally heard back from one of my universities (York) has anyone else applied for York and if so been invited for an interview on March 13th?

Hey. Yes I have got an interview in York on that date. I was originally offered the 19th of February but I have sheffield hallam that day now.
