they're going to teach you proper use/handling/identification/storage of firearms according to law, hunter etiquette and ethics, hunting safety practices and laws, and animal identification. They'll test you on all of it. But don't worry, the tests aren't that had. There is a reason that there are 12 year old kids in the class....because they're more than capable of learning the material and passing the tests too. That's not to say that you shouldn't study and know the material and make sure you learn as much as possible.
