Bournemouth, Bradford, Hull. Sheffield, Southhampton, West London and Aberdeen. Those are my choices.
Or rather the ones that offer Nursing Diploma.
I am in the process of sorting it all out again, UCAS is a pain in the arse. That means selling myself with the Personal Statement. I wish I still had my old one, but alas Computer Reboot lost me that.
I hate trying to sort out this side of it. I don't think that I can sell myself very well at all really. So that is just beginning to get started again.
I am also in need of picking up some practical experience somewhere, this has led to talking to the hospitals and my GP surgery to see if I can get some form of Work Exp so that I can prove that I have an interest in care work etc.
Mind both the Woman who is in charge of Student Support from Wigan College and my youth worker have given me good advice. The woman from college said that I should apply for Mental Health Nursing, as I have life experience in that area. My youth worker said the opposite that I should do Adult nursing instead, as untill my personal issues are settled, I may have difficulties dealing with other people with Mental Health issues.
Me I can see both of their points and have taken them on board. I am still undecided at present.
On the choice of the Unis mind, I am drawn to Sheffield if I am honest. The others I may go to the Open Days for etc and have a look at them, other than Aberdeen, because no way in hell am I going back to Scotland, let alone living on the North Sea Coast!
I think I will just work out what I want to go for as I do my personal Statement, I have till the end of the month I think, at least.
