Nursing interviews for University!

hi :-)....i have a 'selection day' at leeds university on the 9th of december...and i was wondering if anyone could tell me what this entails...i recieved a programe of the day and it seemed really informal...the only things which seemed to test the applicants is an online quiz, and a maths test....any advice or knowledge on a selection day would be great!...i also have a interview at northumbria which seems alot more difficult! ...i have to do a literacy test, a group interview and an individual interview...but im worried about the literacy test...has anyone done one of these?

I have an selection day event at leeds university on the 9th of December too! I'm not quite sure what the online quiz is though

Ok just got back and it was really good. They were very friendly and really put you at ease. No worries about any test just a group activity. All that you need to do is contribute during the discussion and I think they like you they just want to meet you really. Hope you get in. Goodluck hope this helps x

Thanks! Glad it went well, I'm sure you'll get a place .
I'm one of the quiet ones so I'm hoping that the group activity won't be too bad lol.
I also didn't get into Brighton and I only appled to 3 unis (2 for southampton) soo will have to use up my 5th in extras if it comes to it!
How did you get there btw? I'm getting there by train, is the uni easy to find?

8 days to go eeeek. So need to do some research!

Ive got one for Leeds uni on the 3rd. Do we have an actual interview or is it just the tests?

Is that the University of Leeds or is it Leeds Met?
I applied to Leeds Met on the 30th September and i have heard back from all my other choices and i havnt had anything back from them yet - but when i rang them about a week ago, she said it was being considered - surely thats a long time to wait when everyone else has already given me interviews?

Am also quite but you have to try. just make sure you listen carefully during the case study and try to concentrate on what they asked you to do and just answer. I applied for southampton as well when is your interview mine is in december

Sorry for the late reply.
Case study? Eek. I don't have an interview for Southampton, just Bournemouth at the mo. Good luck for it! Did Bournemouth get back to you?

I haven't even done my home work apart from look on the NMC, been so busy with work! I'm a care worker so I'm hoping they don't ask me tooo much on that lol.
