Nursing 2015 Offers!

I got an unconditional offer the next day after the interview. Excited and scared! Anyone else accepted the uwe offer?

Congrats I didn't know they gave unconditional offers, well done I'm thinking of firming UWE depending on how my Swansea interview goes next month, how about you?

Can someone give me an idea of what to expect at the interview, e.g. what were the group activities, and what questions did they ask in the individual?

Hello!

I have an interview for Children Nursing at Southampton University this Friday (21st). I have also been offered an interview at UWE on the 16th.

I am struggling to prepare. Any ideas on what I can do?

Could anyone give me any advice on the group interview stage at Southampton?

Thanks

Hey! Well done about your interview. I have an interview for child nursing in UWE on the 18th Feb. What kind of questions did they ask and how did the group task go? Im also struggling with what to wear aha

Hey Basically on the day you first go into the canteen hall and you get split into your groups, so you'll be with those people throughout the day. You then go for your maths and English test, which is extremely similar to the practice paper you are given. Afterwards we had a tour of the campus and the Glenside halls before returning back for the group interview. You'll watch a video clip on a topic and then you'll have questions that the group need to look into and talk about. You have paper to write on so we all sat on the floor and did mind maps for each question which worked well. I found the group interview was lovely, had a good group where people didn't try to over talk others and everyone had their fair input. Afterwards we went back to the canteen to have lunch and that's where we waited until we were called for interview. (In your group interview at the end of the task they ask your group to write down in order the who's going first-last in the interviews which helps in case people need to be out at a certain time). The individual interview there were 2 interviewers, really lovely, they asked me 2 scenario questions and asked what I could bring to nursing (they told me they were looking for the 6 C's in particular) so make sure you base your answers on that. Also on the day everyone turned up in smart wear, I wore a blouse underneath a jumper, black smart work trousers and flat shoes

Good Luck!!

Hi,
UWE doesn't have an individual interview
Mine started with time to meet my group then an hour long maths and english test (10 maths questions and an essay). Then they give you a tour, followed by a group interview. At mine, they split our group into two, and asked us to explain the role of nurses in a given situation.
Hope that gave you an idea of what to expect, everyone was really nice there
