Between 7th and 10th grade, I dissected a cow eye, countless earthworms, a fetal pig, a mink, a cat, a few fish, and a handful of frogs. Amazingly enough, even though I am a biology major in college, our only real dissection has been of a crayfish (we needed to test neural responses on the body cavity so we alternated soaking the ablated thorax in different concentrations of atropine and caffeine and whatnot).
Most of our actual biology lab work has been with plants, fruit flies, and proteins, though, supposedly, pre-professional majors in the same course get to do pig dissections in place of the plant work.

I wish that held true in college too!
