Preparation for college

I have recently found out that I have been successful at interview, and am expecting to start at the college in June or October next year (hopefully!).

I wanted to ask for advice how best to prepare beforehand, for example what I could learn in advance of the course. I thought that perhaps such things as learning aircraft recognition and characteristics, or an overview of meteorology would help. Obviousely I already know a bit about ATC from a layman's perspective from books and visits/work experience and I suppose I don't want to learn things which are wrong, but I don't want to waste my time before I start doing nothing if I'll be really pushed to manage the workload at the time! If there is anything which people feel isn't taught as much as is ideal at the college then this could be something worthwhile to swat up on.

Thanks in advance.
