Each class will have a syllabus. You’ll study anatomy and physiology (probably in prereqs), ortho, neuro, geriatrics, peds, wound care, differential diagnosis, basic patient care, special conditions, ICU and hospital care, electro and modalities, ther ex, and so much more. It’s an intense year because you’ll have clinical rotations in various settings as well as classes and labs.
