The maths test was very basic, similar to the sample questions sent with the invite and the English test was writing about a scenario they give you. You have 20 minutes for each. They don't expect you to get full marks on the maths, it is an indication of you being able to do the maths required when it comes to drug calculations. The 1:1 interview was really friendly, asking values based questions and finding out a bit about why you want to become a nurse and again a scenario based question. They will check your photo ID and qualifications before the interview too.

I was very nervous but was made to feel at ease by the selection team.

Good Luck!

The maths test was just basic arithmatic and the English test was a scenario based question. I found the maths test was very similar to example ones that can be found online.

The interview was ok I found. Some questions about why you want to do the course, examples of how you've had to deal with stressful situations and I think another scenario based question. It seemed quite informal and friendly so not to nerve wracking!

The lecturers made it a lot more comfortable and less stressful as possible in my view.

Did Salford few weeks ago and most say Uclan lectures seemed more student friendly.

Am sure u will be fine! Hard, think depends on the individual. Go into it with a clear mindset and fingers crossed we'll all get a positive outcome :smile:
