Need something to study..idea's and tips pleaase

[mom2maddynsky27]

I have done all the pre req's and my name is on the list for an LPN program to start in August. I plan to bridge from LPN to Rn right after the LPN program is done. I am at home and not going to school and am bored out of my mind. I need something to do, to study while waiting for class to start. For those of you in school or who already have degrees...what do you wish you had studied before starting school? What would have been easier for you had you known something about before hand? Such as drugs, medical terms, etc? Any ideas, tips, and recommendtions are welcome. Any book recommendtions?

It's always a good idea to go over med. term. but i wouldn't spend too much time on it. I know in our program there are people who are struggling over dosage calc. Some schools require a class for it some don't. So it's a good idea to have the upper hand on that as well. I bought my books early online and just started reading. If you can't or don't want to do that then i would get some straight A's for fundamentals, or which ever classes you'll be taking and start reading through thoes. They will give you the basics of what you'll be going over. Some advice that everyone gave me........Relax and enjoy your time away from school. I couldn't do it but I wish I would have because now......no time for anything. I feel guilty for spending 15 min with my hunny, while eating, when i have an exam comming up. It gets stressful, so it's nice to have some time off. Use it to visit friends, family, garden, what ever you like to do....now is the time to do it.
