Child Nursing September 2015 SHU

Hi!
I've just been offered an unconditional place at Sheffield Hallam University for Child Nursing, starting in September!!! Over the moon! Just wondered if any one else is starting the course then, to get to know people? :smile:

Aw, that's great then! Where are you moving from? Well, I revised everything like 6c's of nursing, NHS Values and Constitution, the Liverpool Care Pathway, Mid Staffs incident etc... And I just completely forgot everything! haha, it was a lot simpler than I thought though. I was massively shocked that I was accepted as I thought I had messed it up. How did you find it?

Huddersfield, wanted to stay close to home but not close enough so that I had to live there, kinda scared though because my friends are studying different branches in london and liverpool, so I won't know anybody:/ and same! I felt a little uncomfortable though because the individual interviews were in the same room as others, and I hated the grouo interview! I could hardly get in a word D: and same here tbh! I feel so lucky though.

That's great though as you will be able to meet new friends, there will be a lot of people in same position as you, and just think you will have some where to stay on nights out in London and Liverpool :wink: Yeah, I know what you mean, I thought that the individual interviews would be in separate rooms. Do we need to do a maths and English test at some point do you know?

Hopefully! Scary to think about though :') I'm so glad there was only one interviewer. I don't think so, didn't think we had too:/ hope not because I failed my maths test at UWE :frown:

I don't think there is either, as I'm sure they would have mentioned it. Other unis have the tests as part of the selection event too. I think we just have to attend the pre-course day to have security and health checks!

Do you know anyone else who is on the course? :smile:
Do you know when the pre-visit will be? And no I don't know anyone taking it at all, do you?:smile:
Got an interview for children's nursing on 14th February! Hopefully will see you there! What sort of questions were asked please at interview?
i've been given a place too!! :smile: they ask question like "what do you think you will find hard with the course", "how can you link your experience", kinda general ones like that :smile: are we able to choose from all the accommodation on offer??
Wooo! Are you going to firm it?
still have Salford and Chester to reply! but i think Sheffield is my first choice so soon i shall!! :smile:

Hey, sorry for late reply! I don't know exactly when to be honest, I got an email earlier saying they will be in touch in next few months :smile: I don't know anyone, no! Unless I recognise anyone from interview.

Congrats on getting an interview!! :smile: You will be fine, quite simple questions, the generic ones like 'Why do you want to be a nurse?', 'How would a child describe a good nurse?' and nursing/NHS in the media.

Good luck!! :smile:

Well done! It's great that we will know someone in September! I don't know about accommodation, but I hope you get it sorted :smile:
