In my 2010 version of First Aid it's toward end of the Behavorial Science section. Though I haven't taken step 1 yet, I have to believe what's in First Aid is sufficient. I wish there was an easy way to memorize it b/c I always get mixed up or seem to forget it. I hate that stupid topic and I plan on cramming it the day before and writing it on the whiteboard.
First Aid behavioral section towards the end. High Yield Behavioral Sciences covers this point pretty well too. It's mostly a crammable topic, but some mnemonics in FA help a lot.
You are going to get ONE question about milestones. Its going to be a kid with thirteen assessments. Then you have to decide if they are early, on par, or ahead for each of the 5 categories. I personally found it a waste of time to learn all of that nonsense only to not remember if its 20 words or 300 words at 3.5 years old to STILL make the question 50/50. I just guessed randomly on those. Payoff not worth the effort.
