Based on my experience, I’d prepare by reviewing my nursing fundamentals, reflecting on real-life situations that shaped my passion for healthcare, and practicing clear, confident answers to common interview questions.

Hi Maddy,
It's great to hear your applying for nursing. I’m a third-year Nursing student at the University of Southampton, and honestly the best way to prepare is to make sure you understand the 6Cs properly and can link them to real examples from your own experience. They ask about values a lot, so don’t just memorise them, think about times you’ve shown them (school, work, volunteering, caring for family etc).
Also make sure you have a solid understanding of:
•
why you want to be a nurse
•
what the role actually involves
•
some basic awareness of the NHS and the challenges nurses face
•
the NMC and professionalism (just the basics)
•
“Why nursing?”
•
“Tell us about a time you showed compassion/teamwork/communication.”
•
“What are the 6Cs and why are they important?”
•
A simple scenario like how you’d handle a distressed patient or a mistake.
I hope that was useful and feel free to ask any more questions.😄
Kind regards
Student Ambassador
Maya
