How into detail do nursing studies go?

Will I be expected to learn all 206 bones? Every muscle?

There's no where clear on the internet that actually explains what we will be taught in classes. It's always vague so I've got nothing to go off, can someone explain it alittle? For example, when learning about drawing blood etc I assume you are taught all about veins, arteries etc

When I did A&P, the instructor gave me a syllabus. On the syllabus, was the course objectives I'd need to know for the class. My instructor pretty much followed the syllabus all the way through the class. Everything was broken up into chapters and units in my book. The chapters went over the body systems in great detail. I was required to know exactly what my instructor wanted from the powerpoints and book. My instructor mostly tested my class on what was said in lecture and off the powerpoint notes. Lab class was an entirely different thing.

I know this vague, and I'm sorry. But, you won't exactly know what is required until you're in class because every school is different. You will go over so much information and all the body systems. Whether you are required to know all 206 bones or not, is up to the instructor. I sure had to know alot of them, muscles too. At first glance, yes, it can be very intimidating because you do wonder...how am I going to know all of this stuff? You can get through it.
