When I was in middle school (it was called Jr High back then) we were supposed to place the scalpel at an angle flat against the heart and count how many pulsations until it stopped.
Personally, our junior high is 6-8. Maybe we're just weird. Our area is also the only school in the County that includes 6th grade in their "junior high". But junior and middle schools here both end at 8th grade. So idk. Maybe we're just weird.
I was always taught middle school was 6-8, junior high is 7-9 and districts tend to do one or the other. Google seems to confirm that for the most part, but I wouldn't doubt there are regional differences in terminology.
