University of Surrey nursing numeracy and literacy test

Hi,

I absolutely want to go to Surrey to study adult nursing but could I please have some ideas and info on the layout and content of the maths and English tests? Is it difficult? or at GCSE level? What would be the best way to revise for these tests?

Thank you 😊 xx

Hi! I have a conditional offer for adult nursing to start sept. Why are you taking the test so late?

The maths test is really easy! You have a calculator so its literally inputing the numbers and signs into the calculator. There as simple as 36 ÷ 4 ect! The english is also easy. I had to write a short essay on where i would like to go on holiday.

Thank you so much for your reply! 😊 and congratulations for the offer!! Oh it's because I'm going through clearing as I unfortunately don't have any offers😔 but fingers crossed I will get a place! Really?! I thought the tests were going to be more difficult! 😮 how long is it? Does it include topics like fractions?

Hi,

Did you receive an email or phone call or a text message from them about the details of the date and time of the interview? I applied through clearing as well and they just told me they'll let us know later.

Thank you 😊

Yeah same! I talked to them on the phone yesterday and said I have an interview on Monday or Tuesday but haven't emailed me at all. I called them up and they said the UCAS system is down.

oh is it? well I will be going in on monday then. will you be as well?
I don't know if it's on a Monday or a Tuesday because I told them either way is fine. So have they sent you the email yet? I just called them up now and said its because they're really busy; they said they're waiting for clearing close today so they can get in touch with the bulk of the applicants applying to Surrey.
