Omg that is expensive! :eek: Would you say DMU is nicer than anglia ruskin? Hahaha the other day I got myself some new gym stuff (I'm trying to get really fit haha!) and then I got home and realised I had no money left! :colondollar: Definitely, looking good is all that matters :wink: Oh you don't live too far from me then!! :smile: I'm from Derby xx


It was ridiculous and the accommodation wasn't even that nice! The uni is very modern but also very small, I didn't like it at all! Wasn't welcoming and they weren't during the interview day either! Oh that's so something id do haha! We must have similar shopping habits:wink: I'm 'getting fit' as well, and on slimming world:') that's not far at all! I'm glad I'm not reallyyyyy far from home! You don't support derby football team do you?:wink: xx

Posted from TSR Mobile I'm hearing great things about DMU by everyone, the bad thing about being interved on Skype is that you don't really get a sense of what the uni itself is like :rolleyes:..I just think I was not as prepared as I should have been and it was a little obvious! Since you firmed DMU were you able to apply for accommodation ?? :smile::smile:

don't worry too much and be yourself, they make you feel so at ease and are all really lovely! Mine was for ld nursing so I don't know if it might be different to yours! It's basically just an individual interview where they ask you general questions about why you want to do nursing etc:smile: you also get a scenario but they are all different for each interview set so I can't help you very much, just read around the topic and don't panic too much haha:smile: hopefully that has helped in some way:') xx

I had my interview on skype but I'm sure that they would ask similar things. I was asked if I knew of any current health care related issues as well.. They left it up to me to chose which one I wanted to speak about, work experience etc. mine was also for LD nursing though :rolleyes:

ALso it might be a good idea to have a few questions prepared to ask them as it shows them you are interested!

thank you for the advice, I'm so nervous, I just hope I remember everything I've been reading and practicing answering questions, I went to pot at my last interview.
