How important is Ecology and Behaviour on the OAT?

It's a listed topic, but for those of you that have taken it, did you find it a really important part of the OAT? I'm finding Eco/Behaviour and plants seem to come up often in the practice books but plants aren't even on the list of topics to study (they just seem to indicate to study the relationship between the different taxa). Thanks!

The problem with Bio is that it is such a broad topic. I would be safe and be familiar with it. You may not get a question on it, but you may get three. You may spend a lot of time studying endocrinology and not get a single question on test day. It is such a crap shoot. I wish there was a better answer for you, but from my experience everything is fair game when it comes to the bio section.

I wish there was too! The amount of information is ridiculous. I'm fortunate in that I know some things quite well, but a lot of the topics I haven't covered in years. Thanks for the response. 🙂

There will definitely be a couple of question on the topic, but it's nowhere near as important as say the Anatomy/Physiology "portion" of Biology.
