Hi yah :) I'm 17 and I recently got accepted into my dream nursing school in Surrey, England and I had 5 interview stages to pass and I thought some were easy and some were hard. But this year in England, the universities had to raise the bar, because they had so many applicants, so interviewing applicants was their only way to pick people. ~ Tips: Don't be nervous! just relax and be yourself When you answer the questions think them through first and answer slowly and at your own pace. You don't have to rush Go to bed early the night before your interview. Having a clear head and a good's night sleep will help Dont think about the interview too much and don't get worried. Just relax and everything will be fine Questions they asked me. I still rememeber lol (: oh and btw, I'm studying Child Nursing. Questions: 1. Why have you chosen to study nursing? 2. Why have you chosen to study child nursing instead of adult nursing, mental nursing and disabilty nursing? 3. What qualities those a nurse need to have? 4. What is the role of the nurse? 5. How would you deal with rude patient? 6. How would you deal with rude staff who are being mean to you? Scenarios I got asked: 1. You are project manager and looking after nursing students. They have a project to do and one person in the group never comes to class and never does the work, but still expects to pass. Everyone else in the group is annoyed and says he should pass. What would you do? and how would you handle the suitation? 2. Who would you give the job to?[i had to pick out of 3 candidates and say why I would pick them and why not] 3. Who would you give the organ to? [i had to pick out of 3 patients and say whhich person I would give it to and why] 4. What route and plan would you take? [i had to pick out of 3 travel options and say why] Role play: In my interview I had to do drama and I am so shy and I thought I would crumble, but everything went good and I passed. Anyways, I had to do drama with one of the lecturers. Him and his children went on holiday and I was supposed to look after their rabbit but it went missing and now he's back and his children want to see their rabbit. What do I say and what did I do? It was like a mini conversation and I just said what happened, what I tried to do, I'm still looking for the rabbits and I will tell your kids, ect! it was just a role play but the most important one. Anyways, I passed all of the 5 stages and the exams (: whoo-hoo! I was nervous and there was no need, everything went fine. Good luck with your interview! *hugs*

Hi (: I'm 17, currently living in London and I am going to study Child Nursing at university this September and I think the points you have written are very good. I hope to get 1st Class Honors in my Bachelor's of Science Degree and my Child Nursing degree [as you can see I am aiming for the stars]. I want to become a Neonatal Nurse in the future, because I love babies and I love helping other people. As a nurse you are helping other people and that's always a wonderful thing. As a nurse you can also travel the world and work in many different countries and places, which is really amazing. Also, when you do nursing you have a lot of career oppurtinities and nursing opens many doors for new oppurtinities, like you can become head nurse or you can work in management or in other places of the health care system. Nursing is amazing, because you have some many choices and can do much. And ultimately you can go home after a long day at work and know you've done a wondeful job that's helped other people and that's always an amazing feeling

CONGRATS xD *hugs* well done! *clap clap* I'm new here but I'm 17 and I recently got accepted into my dream university to study Child Nursing and after 3 rejections I thought I would never get anywhere, but I got accepted and I am so happy. I was worried and stressed too, because I had to pass 2 exams and pass 5 interview stages, but it was all worth it. Good luck and congratulations again and you're going to do great

Aaaaw, I'm sorry *hugs* But don't worry everything will be fine and you must never give up hope. I applied for 5 universities in Engalnd to study Child Nursing and I got 3 rejections :/ I was at the point where I thought I wouldn't get in anywhere and then I got accepted to one nursing school in England and that raised my spirits up and then I got a letter saying I got accepted into my dream university (: I was over the moon, because I had to pass 2 exams and 5 interview stages. Don't give up faith and keep smiling. Everything will turn out fine and I am sorry, and 7 points away is extremely close. You're very smart and never give up. Keep applying and you'll get there. Good luck! xoxo

Hi Elle I'm new here to this community too. I just started today, so I'm just finding my feet. I'm 17 and I'm going to start university to study for my Child Nursing Degree and Bachelor's of Science Degree. I hope to get 2 1st Class Honours in my 2 degrees; the highest grades. As you can see I am aiming for the stars (: Have fun and Good Luck! xoxo

Hi! I'm 17 and I am starting nursing school/ university this September and I understand what you're going through. I was really scared and nervous, I thought I would fail and that nobody would like me, but I went to an induction day on Friday to meet the students on my course and we had a little training event and it was all great (: it turnt out to easy squeezy. I think they're just nerves and once you get used to everything, you'll be fine. Just remember, you are smart and you're going to do great. I live in England, so I'm not too sure about GPA's but I think your GPA is very impressive :)

Good luck with everything (: I'm just having a rest and relaxing before university. I have some university induction days that I have to attend and I have to do some research on first aid - but that's a piece of cake for me, because I took a first aid in school. I'm just so exicted for uni!

CONGRATS xD I'm 17 and I applied to study Child Nursing at university and I got 3 rejections. When I got all my 3 rejections, I thought to myself "that's it. No more uni place for me" but then I got 1 place at a good uni and 1 place at one of the best nursing school's in the UK (: this has been a blessing in disguise and taught me a very important lesson. Never to give up and never to loose faith.

Hi I'm new to this site and I didn't really know how to phrase this question properly, so I am sorry if my title didn't make sense. I wanted to write more but I couldn't :/ Anyways, I'm 17 and I LOVE Hello Kitty and all my uni supplies like books, folders, pens ect are Hello Kitty and Disney. I know it might be babyish, but I think it's super cute. Will the nurses and doctors laugh at me for this? I asked this question on another site, but I was just wondering what nurses would think Thank you and I'll be 18 when I start btw Thanks (:

I'm 17 and as soon as I turn 18 in August I am going to become an organ donor (: it's something I have always wanted to do and I think it is a very good thing.
