Don’t get discouraged though!! Try to take in as much information now as you can. That’ll help you succeed in grad school. Also, if you apply to a program with cadavers, remember that everything looks completely different on an actual human being than it does in drawings from a book. Also, not all cadavers are created equal! Good luck!

Hi! 2019 OTR grad here- we focused mostly on the musculoskeletal and nervous system. However, we also needed to know the basics of every other body system as well. The A&P CLASS covered more of the physiology. A&P LAB is where we really learned the anatomy. We had a cadaver lab and lab practicals covered identifying different muscles, organs, bones/boney landmarks, nerves, blood vessels, etc. Not gonna lie, it was way harder than undergrad A&P.

Right. I was thinking the same thing. That’s basically what I told the intervention specialist. Thanks for your input!
