Are you nervous about the cadavers? I took gross anatomy with a cadaver lab during my undergrad (and i'll be taking it again this summer during OT school). Don't be too nervous! I think you get used to it quickly, but I was also nervous my first time in the lab. I would recommend eating beforehand because the chemicals used to preserve the cadavers release fumes that in my case made me nauseous / lightheaded on an empty stomach (your lab should have vents that suck the majority of these fumes out btw so it's not overwhelming). When you took anatomy / physiology did you dissect cats / animal organs? If so, once you pull back the skin it all looks the same. If it's not an ick factor and more so you're nervous about being around a once living human I think we can take comfort in knowing they volunteered to donate their body for science. It's a unique experience. Haha I don't know if I'm helping.
Also, in my case the head/face (and genitals) were covered until we began that section.
