Broon stick, I have recently started out here at Jerez, and if i were in your shoes I would be going over basic maths and physics, make sure you know how to do the simple things like trig off pat, so as you are not adding to your learning when you arrive. I had beed out of full time education for 2 years but had done no Maths or physics since school and its amazing how much you forget. As for recommended reading I would get in touch with the company you will be training with and ask them there opinion.
I would also get into study habits, knowing what works for you may not quite be the same as the next man/woman, sounds simple but again a place I tripped up just re-reading notes doesn´t work for me but It does for others. So know whats good for you, not what others tell you is good for you.
Finally I would get some sleep because this candle burning can get a bit knackering.
If I can be of anymore assistance give me a shout.
