I'm a retaker, and I noticed on my first take that I barely used detailed knowledge on the biology section. Most of the necessary knowledge was provided by the passages, except for the discrete and pseudodiscrete questions which required some background knowledge. However, I didn't encounter questions similar to those you find at the end of chapters in your prep books.
Therefore, in my preparation for the retake, as I'm going through the content review, I'm not doing much effort in memorizing details. I'm familiarizing myself with the concepts and mastering the main ideas. For example, I know how DNA replication works, but I won't be able to exactly know what do each polymerase do. Even if I try to memorize such details, most likely, I'm going to end up forgetting it anyways.
Is it safe to assume that such detailed information are provided on the test?
