I start nursing school May 14 and I proposed the same questions to a few of my future nursing instructors. Everyone said to not worry about opening the books until I begin. However, they did recommend perhaps getting a subscription a nursing journal and begin reading journals. They said that reading nursing journals help immensely in a nursing program.

I start school May 23, and I subscribed to Nursing 2007 and Nursing Made Easy. They are great to read, even if you have no prior nursing exposure (which I don't). I figure they will also come in handy when writing research papers. When I do come across terminology I don't understand, I look it up. This has kept me busy!

Good Luck!

I third this idea. Nursing2007 is a great one for this sort of thing.
