They like to change it on you. Some places might be dissection and change to prosection as soon as you enroll, so don't hold too much stock in it.
 
If you dick around during lab and let the rest of your group do all the work, it is like prosection.

LOL. That's kinda why I want to go to a school with prosection because I took a Gross Anatomy class in college with dissection and I found myself doing a lot of it, no one wanted to participate because it was "icky" then again, no one was a medical student.
 
You won't have those issues in medical school as a general rule.

particularly if you get a surgeon or two in your anatomy group. I had no one in my group who wanted to be a surgeon yet we all took turns doing it. It works out because everyone knows its part of medical school
