Preparation for year 2

Hey,
Just wanting some advice from individuals who are in year 3 or above of their pharmacy degree.

In preparation for year 2 is there anything that you guys actually did before you started?

I mean I was thinking it might be useful to read through lecture notes of year one before I go back? But then again, don't you do completely different modules in year 2? Apart from a few such as pharmacy practice, forumlation: dosage and design... I mean I did microbiology and organic chemistry lectures in year 1, but in year 2 I have lectures which are slightly different such as medicial chemistry, and medicinal microbiology.. similar but different.

Just wondering whether any of you pharmacy students did any preparation before year 2? And whether reading through lecture notes from year 1 is the best prep you can really do?

Thanks.

Hello.
I didn't do any prep. 'cos I knew the stuff we'd be covering would be totally new. I just had a good ole summer holiday and went back refreshed!
