So I have a question. I will be starting nursing school in the fall and I was wondering what I can do now to prepare. Like what things should I study and know before I start my classes? I have taken all of my pre-reqs except anatomy and Phys, microbiology, chem, and nutrition. I know thats a lot. But I woulod love to know what would b beneficial for me to study before I start. Thanks for your help!

I got the syllabus from a girl who started this last fall and I bought the two primary books and started reading them. And I haven't even applied yet! I am just anxious to get started. Have you gotten in touch with anybody who is currently in the program you will start? Somebody at the school may give you your reading assignment early if you ask.

I second the pp. The school i'll be starting next spring (why is that so far away!?!) has their syllabus online along w/ the texts they recommend. I'm going to have a light course load in the fall so I plan on getting that book and getting started on a bit of reading.
With those classes you listed I think you can't go wrong learning the basics like names of the bones, homeostasis, basic chemistry like structure of the cell, the basic organelles and things like that.
