Has anyone seen any questions where the options are the names of the clotting factors like Hageman factor, proconvertin, etc? I've seen the names in parentheses after the number as options on NBMEs and was wondering if I should learn the names too.

I never felt the need to have had them memorized in any NBME or UWorld. But stuff like thrombin, fibrinogen, hagemen you learn anyway.

They're not mentioned in Kaplan bank and the 1/3 of Rx I've done so far either. I don't want to waste time learning them unless it's question worthy.
