Stay calm! This is exciting, you're almost in!

While I did not have to read a passage (not sure why you would be doing that...) I did have to answer questions about my study habits and family/work life.

It was less about judging me and more about how they could help me once classes started.

Good luck!

I will add this, the one question that tripped a lot of people up was simply, why do you want to be a nurse?

Best wishes!

Breathe. Stay calm. Stay positive.

Not sure about reading a passage?

Hmmmm. Are they checking for literacy? Seeing how you react under pressure? Will they ask you to interpret or react to what you read?

You will do fine. Just be yourself and stay relaxed.

Best of luck to you. Welcome to nursing!
