google, entry exam examples enrolled nursing or B of nursing.. You will get an idea.
I want to do enrolled nursing, I'm mature age student and primary carer of my 92 yr mum, I'm time poor. But really worried about my future when she's gone.
I from looking at example exams I'd do ok for enrolled nursing entry but would need help with my math for B of nursing entry.
I'm thinking about getting a private math tutor, I'm looking into things.
I may just go do my cert 111 aged care, and use the math support at tafe,, at least if so,etching happens to mum, I'd be employable with cert 111.. As it is I'm not. It's hard as a mature age person, loads of life experience, worked in care industry for years before one needed to have cert 111 for jobs. the doctor treating my mother in hospital over the pst weeks assumed I was a RN cause I knew the lingo, and she could see the experience I have, when I told her I was un qualified and un employable. Cause I choose to care for my dying father nursed him t home and also turned into mums primary carer hence, left work force,, now 7 yrs later, at 53"" I've gotta rebuild my life as a care worker,, the pay is dreadful. Plus, I've so much experience, my resume is extensive.
All of us have our stories, all of us on these forums have a love for caring for people in need.
Look at example tests, don't get to distressed, I don't know your age or what city etc your in,,
but there will be a way forward. Follow your heart, and I'm sure one day you will look back and maybe be sending a email like this to someone starting out and worried about entrance exams.
Best of luck. PATRICIA-KIM
