my journey to university.

For nursing, some unis require you to take a literacy and numeracy test. Manchester, for example. But that’s only if you pass the interview process. Luckily some unis don’t care.

My first interview is on the 12th of feb I received 4/5 interviews not including Manchester. I know I’m gonna get offers anyway. I’ve done so much care experience so it should go well tbh.

I see. Lots of time to prep then. gl with that 👍🏾

So there are 3 sections to my course
Developmental - which is just about literacy, numeracy, applying to university, how to do essays well. (This topic is ungraded) and ill hopefully be finished by the 16th.
The second one is Psychology (graded)
And the third is issues in health and social care (graded)
The entry requirements for mental health nursing is 60 credits. 15 ungraded 45 graded. I am hoping to get a distinction in most of my assessments. And I am perfectly capable of getting it because I believe in myself and I am interested in my course see how productive I am when I am INTERESTED.

I was planning on finishing the literacy assessment today but my uncle came in my room and started bussing jokes. There are 6 questions and I completed one and a half today. I have work today at 7 so I’m going off to sleep now and I will hopefully finish the assessment today. It isn’t hard... i was just very distracted. The deadline for this literacy assessment + the essay of euthanasia that I haven’t even started is 7th January. The essay is only 1000 words and is ungraded so even if I get a merit, it won’t count towards anything because it’s just to see how the criteria I was set works and bla bla.

I have finished developmental. Took me a long time cause it had maths involved and I hate maths with a passion.

my assessments will be graded soon.

I will be given another tutor for the psychology section. Can’t wait to start the psychology

Actually I don’t know if I’ll be starting with issues in health and social fare

i will be very proud of myself when I complete this access course. 5 months of doing it all Is an achievement

So today I’ve been given a new tutor for issues in health and social care.

There are 7 sections to this:
1)Introduction to health and social care (ungraded)
2) Health and social Care provision (there’s also a 45 min exam and this section is graded)
3) Mental health and well-being (graded) and very useful for when I do mental health nursing
4) mental health issues (graded)
5) social care and the older person (graded)
6) principles of safeguarding in health and social care (graded)
7) learning disabilities (graded)

So it means I have to work extra hard for the graded ones cause they take everything into account. Like grammar and I’m terrible at that lol. Punctuation and I have to have perf English. And put so much detail.

Right now, I’m gonna begin the first one. There are so much I have to get through. This is much longer than the developmental one and more difficult. But let’s do this 💪🏾 Doing this for when I make 70k at 30.

How have I not seen this

Best of luck

With introduction to health and social care, there are two parts. One is called a self assessment questionnaire (SAQ) which I have just successfully completed and submitted. And the other one is TAQ and it’s an assessment. The second one is obviously more difficult.


I have submitted the SAQ and emailed my teacher that I’ve done so. And just waiting for her to send me the TAQ.

They all have two parts. A SAQ and a TAQ. All of ‘em. I think I did the SAQ exceptionally well (too bad it’s ungraded lol) but can’t wait for my tutors feedback. It makes me happy when I do something well.

So I have permanently withdrawn from Manchester because they’re acting too prestige for me. My other choices are wonderful and easier to get into. Let’s get this bag 💰
