Stuff to study before you start Nursing School

[deiseldawg]

I am at Athens Tech. Currently I need to finish A&P 2 to have all my prerequisites for the ADN program.

Unfortunately I could not get it all completed by the deadline to start fall 2010 and have to Wait until Fall 2011 to start the program.

Would anyone have any suggestions on things I could study on my own to make things easier for me when I do start the program?

Thank you all for your input. I begin RN school in a few months and wanted some ideas of what to review, and you've all helped me taper down my topic list to the following: Dosage calculations, fluids & electrolytes; acid-base balance; med terminology; review my nutrition, physiology (focusing on the nervous, digestive/metabolism, endocrine, immune/lymphatic, cardiovascular and respiratory systems) and pathophysiology notes. I also have two great books on breath and heart sounds. Oh, and lastly, review some medical Spanish (I live in Houston, TX). Thanks again!
