A picture atlas with actual photographs is about the only text you should consider, Moores is a fantastic book, but you can get bogged down in it when you are really wanting to time manage, by the way, does anyone want my Moore's?...its free you pay the shipping and its yours, one less book to ship to orlando. I also have a netters (which is good, but not as good i think as a photograph based book)...
best thing to do is study the first three weeks of material before you arrive...do it over two or three months, (just get used to the terminology, the layout of the major muscle groups and the big nerve and artery layout (arteries are named for where they are) work up from the periphery, dont get bogged down in silly stuff like the brachial plexus.
a lot of folks say don't study at all before coming, but that is very misguided, its ok to study a little bit but just focus on the first three weeks of material...then when you get here you have a bit less culture shock and the terminology and layout come to you a bit more freely.
Rather than running to buy a classroom text, its far better just to use the class handouts if your school provides them....Nova does, but i cant speak for other schools.
