You may get asked :-
1) why do you want to be a nurse
2) why have you chosen this particular university
3) learn about the 6 c's of nursing as might get asked something on this
4) how would you describe a typically day as a nurse
5) what do you think that will be most challenging part of this course
6) described the role of the nursing & midwifery council ( NMC )
7) any specific area in nursing you are interested in nursing and if so why is this
8) what if any experience in nursing do you have.
9) nursing can be so stressful at times, how would you cope with this
10) if a patient recieved bad news about there condition how would you support them
11) how would you deal with a angry & abusive patient
12) if you had a good relationship with a patient throughout your placement and they passed away while you on shift, how would you deal with this news.

Hope some of these will help you with things to study on prior to your upcoming interview as a adult nurse.

Hey! Any mental health nursing applicants here? I applied to Abertay, UHI, Stirling, GCU and UWS on the 3rd. Just wondering how long it normally takes from applying to receiving an interview invite?
