also if anyone who has had their interview would they mind helping :frown::frown::frown: with interview questions, do they ask you about personal experience, or current issues. (i have applied for mental health) also i have seen from the previous years that the interview is scored out of 25, and to get a conditional offer scores need to be 20+ ! sooo if theres anyone on here happens to read this who is currently studying nursing PLEEEEASE could they mail me or help on this?? as to a good solid answer on the likes of the communication and literacy/numeracy questions!! also what else should i look into to help me be the best prepared for interview? or what is other people doing to prepare??

Hi Kay-dee26 if you research plenty you will do fine in your interview but please don't ask anyone about what questions have been asked this year. Queens have made it clear at the interview that what goes on in the interview is confidential and should not be discussed with other candidates as it is unfair to those that have already had the interview. If you break confidentiality as a nurse you could loose your registration so it is important when asked to keep something confidential you should adhere to it. You will be great at your interview if you just be yourself and if you gain a place it will be because you worked hard for it xx
does anybody know how many applicants get offered interviews, and how many places there are?

oh dear........ I sent mine off about a week after the applications came out!!! Although the references would have been a couple of weeks later.........

I wish you all the very best for Magee.


Thanks, any word yet? still nothing! :frown:

Glad to hear that interviews are being sent out depending on went your application was received as well as alphabetically. Mine was sent in at the last minute as I was waiting for references. Another straw to clutch on to!

I still haven't received a letter :frown: so disappointed, I rang Queen's today and they said I should have my letter in the next couple of days if I don't to ring them back, I really think I haven't got an interview now, I won't be around for the next few days either, does the envelope have the nursing and midwifery logo on it or the Queen's logo, so I'll know if it's at home waiting for me tomorrow or Friday?

Nope, nothing either! It doesnt look promising does it!:s-smilie:
catherine and tyrone are you both waiting on nursing letters because I know a girl with surname o and she hasnt heard yet either, there is no reason why she shouldn't get an interview so like hers I'm sure your interviews are on their way. From reading this last year some people waited a long time after the initial interviews were sent, I am sure you will hear soon xx :smile:

Thank you for your note........as a mature applicant I had put off applying until my children were older and I was able to committee to what I was signing up to 100% - with regard to placement hours. I just hope I havent put it off to long! I do hope you are right but my gut feeling is that it isnt good news. I sent my application away about a week after they came out and my surname starts with B. But I can only wait and see. Keep us informed about your friend.
