Nursing School Interview

[studentdan]

I'm due to sit my interview for my nursing course next month and I was just wondering if anyone had any tips (questions they could ask, possible answers etc.) on nursing interviews?

I'm really nervous incase I don't get accepted.

We will be accepted on basis of this interview.

Make sure you have an answer for the "Why do you want to be a nurse?" question. Also, why did you choose this school, program? What attributes do you have that would make you a good nurse? Describe a situation where you encountered an angry co-worker, etc. How did you handle it? Standard interview questions, but geared toward nursing, healthcare, your emotional stability under fire, your work or volunteer experience in health care. That type of stuff.

they are looking for you to say or exhibit maturity, commitment and people skills. All these are essential if you want to do more than be admitted - like getting thru nursing school for instance.
