Hello,

I'm using the TBR, and EK for Bio (EK for content, TBR for passages), and was wondering if TBR covers the eye and ear. EK covers them both, but if TBR doesn't, the topics don't strike me as important. What is your advice. Cover them or not? Thanks.
 
TBR covers the ear in the physics books, but as far as I recall there is no eye. I would go over them in your EK bio book as that was what I did. I don't think you need to know much besides basic anatomy for those though.
 
Yeah. So I did a few of TBR's end of chapter passages for section 1, where they had a passage on everything that the content portion of the section was missing when compared to EK Bio. They had a passage on the eye, detailing its anatomy in the passage, and one on the skeletal system. There may have been a couple of other ones as well...
