Feeling Good

I really need to update about my interview. After having anxiety for the entire week before, I am finally feeling good about this whole process. The morning of I got up at 5:30 (I definitely was not used to that) and made sure I was prepared for the day along with doing a devotion. When I got to Concordia, an ease actually came over me knowing I was in a familiar place. I can only imagine how other people felt just being in an unfamiliar place.
There were 6 groups of 6 of the prospective students, and we made rotations to 6 different interview panals. Lets hope the number 6's have nothing to do with it, haha. It did take the entire 4 hours, but went by pretty quickly. Everyone was very friendly and I walked out of there saying everything I wanted to say. So i'd say the interview went really well...in my eyes at least. Some questions they asked were
"Why do you want to be a nurse?"
"What would be your biggest challenge in the program?"
"What are some of your weaknesses and strengths?"
"How do you handle stress?"
"What are some skills you have that will carry into the program?"

I thought those were some pretty standard questions and everyone had something different to say. So it will be interesting to see what kind of nursing student they are looking for. Now I just have to wait for the final decision. I will hopefully hear the first week of August.
Until then.....
