Things to brush up on for transition program?

I am starting an LPN to RN program in May and I was wondering what things I should brush myself up on. I am currently working in a correctional setting which is nice because I see the whole spectrum of diseases and their processess as well as tons of medications.

But when you get down to the nitty gritty what are some things I should reaquaint myself with?

Any help would be much appreciated.

    I have the same question. I'm starting a bridge program next fall & I've been out of school for awhile. I want to kick butt in class & not feel so behind. :p

    What do you mean by advanced med/surg?

    Thanks Commuter for the information. Working as a CNA for fiver years in Psych I suppose is a good thing. Also, one of my duties is doing head-to-toe body check with the RN for any surgical scars, tattoos, wounds, etc for admission.
