Skymoore has replied to your questions You don’t write IBMS bro, you complete a portfolio in an accredited lab. May I ask which course you did in your undergraduate and if you have any previous significant laboratory experience from Nigeria. Capitalbase: Good morning my People. I have been following since day 1 and I wanted to be certain of things before I ask. I have been admitted to study "Biomedical Science" in "Chester University" and "Sheffield Hallam University". I am really tempted to go for Chester as they also offer top up courses to enable me write IBMS and get licensed. Now my questions.
1) Is That University a good one?
2) How is Chester in terms of student Job and life generally?
3) I have been asked to make a deposit of 3kp but I intend to make 6kp out of the total 9450p, How does this move help me?
4) Do I need a car, or should I just forget about it?
5) Can I do small buying and send down to Nigeria for sale?
6) Since it's my first time traveling, will I have issues with a virgin passport?
7) How Marketable is this course in UK?.
Please I have some other questions as I intend to start paying school fees this week, but kindly put me through on this ones first. Thanks all the gurus in the house. I am expecting your responses.
Cc Justwise, etc.
Best Regards |

Oh interesting, never knew you could start from band 7 thought it’s either 5 or 6. Notwithstanding band 7 hourly rate is still £19.89/hr Although, you can get more with private organisations or agencies but job security is very important. Example is with this covid-19 era most private companies have laid off their staff and agency staff have been forced to terminate their contracts. Mindlog: Thanks for the insight. Upon graduation, I intend to practice as a Play therapist and the attached is guiding me. |

I understand you said “personally” but be mindful that even NHS band 5 (graduate entry) is at £12.74/hr only rises with experience up to £15/hr Mindlog: Shuddering at the thought of getting paid 8-11 p/hr work after graduation, after all the investment! Personally, after graduation anything less than £25/hr as a starting wage will make no sense to me. |

I have thought of this too, it’s a nice idea, but the time to start reading through the pages to point out the FAQ is the issue. Will be nice for anyone that’s just joined and reading through the pages to help us make notes. mamacajah: @ justwise, can't this thread have a link to the pages with normal FAQs like "preparing for interview", " how to check your status", etc like you did for the US and Canada study threads on the front page? It would really help...just my thinking. Thanks for still doing a great job all these years.. it's not an easy one.... |

Another option is West Midlands, Birmingham 3 bedroom large house with private parking in very good area is about 600-650 monthly Personally, I will rather have a £10/hr job outside London than £13/hr in London. popegirl: Ahh okay then......

May God forgive him his sins and grant u the fortitude to bear the loss. Firstly I will advice u to take some days off ALL uni activities (leave of absence/extenuating circumstance) that will give u enough time to travel and apply with the kids. I don’t think ur MIL can be granted visa as a dependant (I stand to be corrected) but it’s worth seeking legal advice or better still ask admission/visa unit of ur uni. I genuinely think u have a strong case and as it’s covid-19 related I’m sure something positive will come out of it even if it’s under human rights law. All the best and please take heart, he’s in a better place dupylola: Good day house, please, I need advice. I came to the Uk Jan this year to study a 2 Years program. I am a married woman with kids so my husband and I planned that he would apply for dependant visa with the kids by March. Unfortunately due to the lock down, they couldn’t get the biometrics done and the worst happened,����my hubby died from covid 19 related disease last week.My life shattered but I have to keep moving���
I am planing to return to Nigeria to get the kids for biometrics but my heart bleeds for my husband after all his sacrifices . I am considering applying for his mum so she can help with the kids while I run around. Please, how can I go about this?? There’s enough fund to cover her maintenance fee.

The bolded can not be over emphasised LaaJiblik: Pretty1986: I see that @Tobexin has done remarkably well in sorting you out.
I have a suggestion for you. Don’t be lazy. Do not expect to be spoon-fed.
You asked for clues. You were directed to Omopapa’s posts. You went through his post, saw 5C’s etc. The expectation would be for you to visit google and search for the 5Cs. Then after finding it, you may become a resource person to help others on this thread. Rather, you went back, quoted Omopapa and asked him to explain the 5Cs. What will you do next? Ask Omopapa to write a 200-word summary and send to your email?
There is a lot of stuff on this thread, and on Nairaland but it’s not exhaustive.
Use this thread to point you the right direction, then do your own search.
Google is your friend. |

I have outlined the 5C’s already all u need to do is to be able to explain each one with an example. One of the major qualities of a nurse is caring. You need to give examples of how you have shown care to people e.g u looked after ur grandparent. Notice I keep mentioning examples. You need to backup anything you say with examples, this is very important as it shows that you understand what you are saying and have in-depth knowledge of the topic. You shld read briefly about nursing in the uk, the accreditation body (NMC) and the uni you are attending. Read about confidentiality. They might ask about it in scenario based format. Key thing to rmba is never discuss patient’s results or diagnosis with unauthorised person even if it’s their family member (except when the patient has given their consent) pretty1986: . Good evening sir,pls I will be very happy if you can explain further about this 5 C's of Nursing and other questions to expect. am going for Adult nursing undergraduate. pls I really need your help on this,because I want to start studying everything about the interview.

She needs to knw about the 5 C’s of nursing; commitment, conscience, competence, compassion and confidence and be able to give example how she will apply each C in her career as a nurse. She should mention that she’s caring and give examples to back it up. She shld be able to link psychology with nursing explaining the similarities. Scenario based questions: They might tell her little story and ask questions about it.

Skymoore1004: It will be better if you can do nursing in Nigeria , get certified & go to the U.K. under tier2 visa because they’re always in need of nurses for their NHS.
This would have been ur best option as it’s way cheaper in Nigeria but ur not guaranteed to finish in 4 years except u attend a private uni
Another option is to try foundation program, approach universities and make enquiry to see if they can take you on
Otherwise, do another IETLS and write a befitting personal statement to improve ur chances
All the best and please don’t give up
