Mental Health Nursing at Derby 2014

Good luck with that interview :-) I have 2 left but im going to withdraw from them as I dont really want to go now I have derby.
I have started to set up my account but got no futher. Need to give them a ring which I will do now I've been offered a place. I'm more concerned about finding somewhere to live atm with me having my children. I'm sure it will all fall into place over next could of months.
I asked for feedback from one of my unis with regards to a rejection and what they put couldn't have been more untrue if it wanted to be. All the excusses they could have used, they used one which was quite ridiculous, I'm just happy they weren't my first choice.

hey. Good luck with the interview! They told us that your group are the last group they are interviewing so you should fin out quickly if you get an offer! Don't worry about the day. They started ours off by checking all the documents, so you were sat around with everyone for about an hour, then they did a short presentation on the course, then they did the maths test, which you were aloud to use a calculator, but not on your phone! Then we had a huge break, then went back for an enlgish test which was just writing up about a short scenario question. watch your spelling and grammer and write neatly. Then we had a group interview....our group had 15 people in, so be prepared for maybe a larger group....it can be hard to get a word in, but just be yourself and make sure if you have an points to add, you add them when you can as you are being watched. Then you wait for your individual interview. They seemed to take between 5 and 20 minutes. No questions to catch you out, just the straight forward, why derby, why MH nursing and not adult. Just be confident, be yourself and be honest. The staff are lovely. Good luck, I'm hoping to hear back soon, I've just had my interview last Friday. If I get an offer I will be firming it as they are my top choice x

Wow! Thank you so very much! I wasn't expecting such a detailed reply I have my interview tomorrow! It's been a few gets since I've done any maths lol so I'm quite nervous about that. So they didn't ask any tricky questions? I has my de montfort interview on Tuesday and they asked me such hard questions! I thought I deffo won't get a place but I did yet derby would be my firm choice for definite if I got in. Congratulations on getting in! I really hope I do as well what sort of topic of discussion was it in the group interview/discussion? Wow 15 people is a lot lol. Also, do they provide the calculator? Would that reflect negatively do you think? I'm going to practice today. Is there anything specific I can practice on? I know you have to know how to covert from ml-l and vice versa as well as g-kg and vice versa but anything else? Sorry for the late reply, I've had 2 interviews this week lol and derby is my last interview and the most important xD thank you again!!! xxx
