Love your videos I start my degree in September so nervous as I haven’t been in education for over 10 years! Thanks for all your advice hun it’s so useful ❤️

[@elliesjourneytomidwifery6142]

Aww thank you! Good luck for September - you’ll be amazing! It must be scary going back into education after a while out, but so many people on my course did the same and they seemed to get back into the swing of things fairly quickly, so I imagine you’d do the same 😊if you’re struggling the university usually offers lots of academic support so just let them know if they can help you in any way x

Can you do a video on what your scheduele be like? xx

[@elliesjourneytomidwifery6142]

My schedule can vary so much so it's quite difficult to get an average. When it's theory blocks we are doing lectures/guided study 10:00-16:00 Monday to Friday. But placement could be any day and any shift patterns so it's difficult to pinpoint placement schedule, but it's roughly 37.5hrs a week x

@@elliesjourneytomidwifery6142 hi I’m going into Kingston in September for midwifery, I thought Wednesday was half day?

[@coolkidscorner724]

Hey, I'm going to Kingston in sept do you know when placement starts?

[@elliesjourneytomidwifery6142]

Normally you have 2 weeks of observational placement in October hun, and then placement starts properly in December xx

Hi due to start midwifery in September 2022 at kingston uni, can you tell me whats the time table like?

[@elliesjourneytomidwifery6142]

Hi I’m so sorry I’ve only just seen your comment! Our timetable will differ slightly with days we are there and it might be different with how much face to face and online lectures we have, but our timetable for theory weeks are Mon, Thu, Fri face to face 10-4pm, Tues online 10-4, Wed online 10-12:30 x

[@Hjan4566]

I have test in the next week exam for entering the university so plz tell some tips can I success the exam plz🙄

[@elliesjourneytomidwifery6142]

If its a maths exam, then make sure you know how to calculate basic things such as fractions, percentages, times and dividing, ratios etc. With the english exams they are harder to prep for, but make sure you know the difference between verbs, adverbs, adjectives, nouns, pronouns etc. I'm sure you'll do great! Good luck hun xx
