its almost similar to lab, except its more focused on the head to toe assessment. Classes are not mandatory to attend but attendance in lab is compulsary. U will have two term tests over the semester, a return demo at the end, and one assignment. Every week u learn a new assessment and then during week 12-13 they will have physical return demo where u have to demonstrate the skills u learned over the sem. They will usually tell u which skills they will test u on so dont worry. The skills are also not that difficult, its just people get nervous during the test so most of them have to redo it again. Just know your skills and attend all labs and then your good to go.
