Take it you're from Northern Ireland haha? Same! Did you need to go to an interview for Surrey? Either Manchester or Queen's is my first choice and I'm predicted A*AA so hopefully it'll counterbalance my lack of experience haha! x

I am from Northern Ireland yes :biggrin:

Yep, I think its standard for all Nursing courses to have interviews - apparently Surrey and QUB have the same interview format (MMI style, which was stressful lol!) so I'm hoping that my success at Surrey will put me at an advantage. A*AA is amazing, what subjects do you do? I'm predicted ABB in biology, chemistry and French :smile:

You can ask for feedbsck and they will tell you why. But I think you have to do it quick because when i rang for feedback one time they said they only held the information for 2 weeks and no longer had mines x

Yeah, this was after interview, but even if they refuse you an interview they still give you a reason as to why your application was rejected x

I've got my adult nursing interviews for Swansea and Southampton coming up! I'm so nervous! Id be grateful for any advice as to how to prepare for them?😬

sorry to reply so late, i was just nosing through the thread. have you had your swansea interview yet? i have mine last week, i'll be honest i didn't like the uni that much. the interview was okay though. it was a group interview, followed by a role-play with a service user and then a 1:1 interviewer. it lasted la ing time but the questions weren't particularly difficult.
