Before I even talk with the new student, I would check out his or her binder to see what the most recent lessons completed were. I would check for mistakes made and see if there are any lessons that need to be completed or that were missed altogether. I would also get a general idea of the kinds of hours they need and see if they need a lot more hood time, cross country time, etc.
I would ask the previous instructor about the student's strong points and weak points. I would also ask about the student's personality to see what I have to do to accommodate that particular personality.
When I first meet with the student, I would ask them what they feel their strongest and weakest points are in both ground and flying. I would then conduct a general ground session with them to see if the previous instructor's answers and the student's answers match up. I would also get my own understanding of the student's ground knowledge through this session.
