For some, the transition between school and university is not an
easy one. Unfamiliar and familiar subjects alike are treated with
new approaches. The pace of learning escalates, the volume of
written work increases and deadlines accelerate. And then there are
the exams.
This series of books aims to bridge the gap by
* Introducing subjects as they are taught at university
* Providing time management strategies
* Suggesting how to get the most out of lectures and
tutorials
* Showing how to write an essay that is on par with university
standards
* While taking some of the agony out of exams
"Essential for anyone thinking of a career in nursing."
-professor Roger Watson, school of nursing, University of Hull

skills are outlined for the nurse and the patient. "Get Set for
Nursing" provides the student with a clear and accessible guide to

education and nurse registration. The final sections provide a
guide to the nursing and study skills required at university.
