Possible Pre-Nursing Interview Questions?

Published

Hello all,

I will be applying to my undergraduate school's nursing program within the next couple of months. I was wondering if anyone had some advice on typical interview questions? Maybe some ideas for impressive answers as well?

I want to prepare as best I can! There are both group and individual interviews. All tips are appreciated!

Thank you for any help in advance. :)

Well, my only experience was at an interview at a vocational school for my LPN. But I'm sure they'll ask you the standard questions like, "Why you want to become a nurse" and "What are your strengths and weaknesses." The person who interviewed me asked me if I had reliable transportation and if I had a backup plan. The reason is because in my area it snows and the roads can get dangerous. However this doesn't always mean they will cancel the clinical hours.

I'm sure there are plenty of other sites and resources that can help you out. Perhaps youtube? You could try recording your answers and playing them back. See where you stumble and where you feel confident. However, I've also heard that you don't want to sound too reheorificed. If you do stumble while talking, take a breath and continue. Don't dwell on it.
