Hi there unfortunately I did not take life science in high school but I would love do nursing I have been struggling too find a life science bridging course ,can any one please help
I think you should start from higher certificate. Or check private colleges that may accept your results like Ukwazi nursing college I think
Hi, You need to go to a matric upgrading school some call it matric rewrite. you will write your exam Oct/Nov, then go to the department of education to add that subject to your matric certificate.

Your videos have helped me reach over $180,000 in trading by age 23! Thanks Nurse Sam. Keep the videos coming. 👍🏽
Congrats ! i made a lot during covid from my passive income .
I'm convinced that the big investors and analysts are trying to scare us to keep us poor and ignorant to the market.. because its steady doing good after all the jobless and market crash talks
Congrats and wishing you the best .

Hey this video helped me a lot because I really want to study as a nurse(bachelor's degree) and later specialise in midwifery. Thank you
Hey Jessica, I'm glad it helped, you're welcome❤❤
I've done a teaching degree and am interested in changing up to Nursing. My life sciences marks were low. Where and how do I start the transition?
I am upgrading my Mark's to apply for nursing
That's awesome, can't wait for you to join us !! All the best with upgrading your marks❤👏
@@nursesam_sosora thank you
Which subjects are you upgrading if you don’t mind sharing? Currently in grade 12 wanting to do nursing
@@shekinahwemba6887 math and life sciences
same
I want to like this a million times. Thank you.
You are amazing. Thank you ❤❤
How do I go about studying nursing if I did pure maths in matric but I got a level 3. I don't want to rewrite, but I'd rather do like a extra year as a bridging course. Is that possible and if so, how?
Rewrite!
Thanks a lot ma dear really appreciate it I will c u on the field
So it is not possible for me to study bachelor of Nursing because I don't have physical sciences but I have life sciences
Hi Ntando, you can have Life science OR Physics, you just need to double check the requirements of the institution you will be applying at. For example:
The minimum requirements to apply for a Bachelor of Nursing are:
1. Admission Point (AP) 30
2. Language of instruction 50%
3. ** Mathematics 40% or Mathematical Literacy 70%
4. ** Life Sciences 60% or Physical Sciences 50%
** Either Mathematics or Mathematical Literacy is required, as well as either Life Sciences or Physical Sciences.
OKAY...Thank you so much Nurse Sam🙏
Hy nurse😍😍, I'm inspired with your video😊 i would like to ask... "With a CNA qualification, what other step that one could take in order to become a nurse" ?
Is physical science compulsory? Cause some university requirements need life sciences, English and maths/maths lit
Enjoyed this Sam..thanks for the information 👏🏾❤️
Thank you👏❤
This was a very informative video, thank you ❤️❤️
Thank you friend ❤❤ You are my fighter for always commenting😭🤣❤❤❤❤❤👏👏

After finishing the Bachelors degree at UNISA, what is the next step? Do I apply for something or what?🙈what is all the steps after getting the degree? I want to become a pediatric nurse. Like should I get registered at SANC or do UNISA do it for you? And what about internship? Whats the steps on that and how to you do it?
Are you an International student?
Your university should send your documents to SANC to be registered.
@@nursesam_sosora Hi, no I am not an international student😌
Very helpful thank you❤
Hello Nurse Sam which school offers Othorpedic Nursing in RSA?Hoping to hear from you soon🙏
Am in grade 9 am going to grade 10 next year I want to be a nurse but I don't know which subject to choose in grade 10
Hi pls I’m a nurse already how can I work as a nurse in South Africa
I did Commerce in matric all my subjects are 60% and above I wanted to do nursing but I don't hv any science subject😭😭😭😭
Hey Talita❤ I am going to advise you to just apply and hear the outcome.
How is it going Talita?
Hey, is it a good idea to apply maybe in 3 different colleges at once incase one doesn't take you?
Hey Cynthia🙋♀️ Yes definitely why not! It is always a good a idea to keep all your options open.
They have abolished compulsory Life Science. . .now they say you either have Life Science or Physics
Thank you for the updated info👏
Hey Sam, what's the best institution to study nursing at?
Hey Catherine, College/University depending on your finances. Both institutions breed best nurses.
Watch this video where l compared the two, and you can make a decision on which you like/suits you best❤

How much are nursing monthly in south africa
Hi Nurse Sam. Pls what are the process for overseas registered midwife from Nigeria to work in SA as a midwife. Thanks
Please mam am a registered nurse in Nigeria,what's the duration of the(ADN)RN to BSN and how much does it cost
Hi Lawrence, here we don't really use the terms "ADN" so l am not sure of the correct response to give. However for the BSN we also take 4 years to complete. Costs vary, it is more for international students though.
Hy hy . How are you. Am a nursing assistant with experience i want to do a degree in south africa. Where can i apply
Hey hun love the video 💗💗quick question how does one become a DNP in South Africa and where can I get this degree ?
Hi Stella you can do your DNP at any University in South Africa that offers the qualification. For example at the University where l am these are the requirements :
Candidates must
Hold a Masters Degree in Nursing, from an approved/accredited higher education institution, at NQF/HEQSF level 9 that is relevant to the discipline/field of study in which they want to do their PhD.
Be registered with the South African Nursing Council or relevant professional body, as a nurse.
Are you in South Africa? Or you are international?
@@nursesam_sosora thank you so much 💗💗I am from South Africa port Elizabeth and I’m currently doing matric , another question is what is the work attire and how long will it take to study this degree and get the DNP ?
@@stelladave4965 Okay great! For Bachelor of Nursing Degree it is 4 years, Masters 1/2 years depending on if you are doing it full time or part time then for the DNP it is another 2 full years.
@@nursesam_sosora one last question 😭😭what nursing degree are you studying and how long will it take to just become a nurse practitioner?
@@stelladave4965 I am studying a BCur Nursing Science Degree. Qualifies me for General Nursing Science, Community Nursing Science, Midwifery and Psychiatric Nursing.
To become a Nurse practitioner :
Become a Registered Nurse. The first step to a career as a nurse practitioner is earning your credentials as a registered nurse (RN).
Earn a Bachelor's Degree.
Gain Experience.
Obtain State License and Certification.
Pursue Further Specialization.
I have history,math lit ,life science ....is it possible to b a nurse
Yes it is 👏
How can someone become a Neonatal intensive care unit nurse in SA? Im in grade 11
Hi, please advise what's all about Netcare nursing colleges Pre assessment test
which affordable universities would you recommend to self sponsored international students?
Honestly university for Internationals will always be expensive. But probably the ones in smaller provinces are more affordable.
I think maby UNISA
What would be the next step to take after completing a diploma in registered/auxiliary nursing if your end goal is to be a Trauma Nurse in the emergency room? Is it just gaining experience for a certain amount of time in the emergency room, should there be further studies, or how is this achieved?
Hi Chadash, as a registered nurse you are qualified to work in an trauma unit, however you can do postgrad trauma unit courses to better your skills. And yes l think the more you work in the trauma unit, the more experience you gain.
Hie sam I am also a foreigner and I want to study nursing in south africa. I already have a matric certificate but would like to know how I will get the other documents like the SANC permit letter. I was also hoping to apply for my study permit after I get admission if it is possible. Please help me .
Hi Nikita, you will get registered with SANC at the beginning of your first year, for me the University did that for us, they just submitted our documents. So I'd say apply at the University/College using your matric certificate, once they accept you then you start applying for your visa, because you need an acceptance letter from school for your visa application, you don't need SANC documents for that.
Thank you for your reply I would also want to know if I will need to apply for a work visa after I finish my course, I do will it be difficult. I just want to know whether I will be making the right decision studying as a foreigner here.
@@nikitanyatondo8206 You will apply for a critical skills visa after you finish
Hi, can I do nursing even though I failed maths in high school but I've done my N1
Hi, yes you can! They might make you write an aptitude test depending on which university you are applying to.
Hi, when you have a higher certificate in auxillary nursing is it possible for you to study Diploma in registered enrolled nurse
Hi, yes it is possible.

Hi dear I want to write matric this year, currently am an enrolled nurse l want to be a registered nurse what subjects can I take your help would be greatly helpful
Hi Happiness, the subjects to do are:

How do i become a pediatric registered nurse if i study a Bachelors of Nursing?
Yes it's very much possible.
@@nursesam_sosora do I only have to study the 4 years for the Bachelor's of nursing or do I have to study further to specialise in pediatrics?

How can I apply bringing corse
Hie darling.so from compliting higher certificate(auxiliary nursing).how long does it take to become a regestered nurse in south africa.n if yu dont mind in terms of the process.thnkx in advance
Hi Nhlanhla, I think you will do a bridging course for 3 more years to become a RN. Here is a link with everything you need to know in terms of the process and requirements of becoming a RN. www.sanc.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/bachelors-degree-in-nursing-and-midwifery-2014-07-23.pdf
I want to study the diploma in nursing but I have Cambridge not matric what can I do
You can still apply...You will have to send your results to SAQA for evaluation.
Wat does it require for someone outside SA to work as a nurse, registered nurse.
IELTS , OET, PASSPORT
Which varsity are you attending
Sam i want a diploma in midwifery, i am 27 currently, my mathematics is the only thing that was bad, do i need to upgrade my maths cos i hated it😭😬
Hi Rotondwa, no I'd say just apply with the marks that you have. Honestly we don't even do maths in nursing lol, just basic basic calculations. So just apply and hear the response.❤
Hello.
I would like to know atleast what average should we get to get conditionally accepted? (Bnurs) Sorry if i am invading your privacy but what average did you get when you were gr11 and 12?
Hey Deon, I would say make your average above 60s to be safe. I don't really remember my average but it was not below 65.
What if I want to do the bachelor degree and I do maths core but I don't do physical sciences 😣
Hey Palesa, you can still apply without Physics, you just need to look at the requirements of the institutions you will be applying at.
Hi, if I study a Bachelor of nursing science or a Bachelor of nursing practice,Do I need to complete my degree or can I transfer in between my degree
*Into medicine
Hi, I am not quite understanding the question. Transferring to another university before completing your degree? Is that what you are asking?
@@healthfamilyfitnessworld5043 Oh you can just transfer, you don't need to complete the degree. But if you do complete then depending on the institution you might get exempted for some modules.
Is life orientation and physical science compulsory
No
Hie nurse Sam I'm a foreigner from malawi and interested to apply for nursing school in South Africa please help my question is I have a diploma in hospitality management so can I use this course's transcript to apply for nursing school? Or not? Please reply xx
Hi reign..I don't think you can use it since it's a totally different field of study. You will have to use your high school results to apply.
@@nursesam_sosora you're a darling thanks xx
Hi there so do u have to do life science and bio
Hi Saadiya yes you have to.
Hi Sam.bi am 47 and want to study the 1 yr nursing diploma. Is there a age restriction
Hi Serina❤️ There is no age restriction! Go for it please ❤️👏
Sam what questions can I expect in the assessment test?
Hey Catherine❤
Which assessment test?
Uhm if I'm doing math's literacy cnt I do nursing
Yes you can, I was thinking of applying too but I didn't have Life science in high school, so if you have math literacy and life science you can definitely apply
If I do a diploma in nursing will I get an exemption for some subjects if I want to do a degree
Hi, so after your diploma, you will do what is called a bridging course for 1 year to 'top-up' the qualification to a degree level. So yes because you are not starting from scratch.
@@nursesam_sosora so you mean after doing that 1 year bridging course I have the degree
@@mandytaziva3750 Yes
Hey Nurse sam
How do one apply for a bridging course?
Hey Siyanda, I am not sure exactly but here is a link that explains better for the requirements of a bridging course nursing.ukzn.ac.za/schoolofnursingdecentralizedprogrammescertifi/

Is there nursing night school in South Africa
I am not sure.
What if I never did science 🥴 and got Diploma
Hey is there any bridging course for nursing?
My friend got a higher certificate in grade 12
Obviously her marks were too low so
She applied at khanyisa Nursing College ... she was admitted she did the basic of nursing
Now shes currently doing her higher certificate of nursing
Probably by next year she will be doing a diploma in nursing
Hy is it always necessary to have physical science
Hey Octavia, no it's not.
Hy nurse can I qualify to study with NQFL4

I want to become a pediatric nurse. But I want to do my 4 years and the zuma year. Then keep specializing in as much as I can. But I want to work in paediatrics. My school only overs life science and maths lit. Not physical. Wil I be OK?
Hey Mieke, yes depending on which institution you will be applying at.

@@miekekotze3050 This is what they say on their site.
The minimum requirements to apply for a Bachelor of Nursing are:

3. ** Mathematics 40% or Mathematical Literacy 70%
4. ** Life Sciences 60% or Physical Sciences 50%
** Either Mathematics or Mathematical Literacy is required, as well as either Life Sciences or Physical Sciences.
