Attn: Mears and Leese! Can you reveal some student midwifery selection secrets?

[ScummyMummy]

Hi there Mears, Leese, any other midwives and/or other experts! My sister is attending a "Selection Day" in a couple of days in the hope of being picked to study midwifery. Any pointers on what will help/hinder her and what the day will involve? She mentioned a group interview but seems a bit unclear as to how they go about the selection process. Very grateful for any info/advice. I promised to post on her behalf and have talked you guys up as the experts of experts, for such I believe you to be.

s'aright alibubbles, none taken. I met a fab midwife at Guy's hospital a few years back who rejoices in the name of Comfort Momoh, who works with the many women affected by (eek) female circumcision. one of her main problems was trying to communicate when she knew the husbands weren't translating properly!
