Have to agree with Timelapse here.
I had about 9 months before I started college after passing the assessments and read MATS1 and found it very dry and confusing. Graham Duke's book is good and swatting up on a/c recognition and stats would be useful. The Trevor Thom PPL book on Meteorology is also very good.
Just realised I presumed you were applying to NATS???
As above, feel free to PM with any questions
