Taxonomy on DAT

Hello everyone,
I was wondering how much taxonomy was on the actual test.

I was reading the Kaplan book from class and it's not enough, so I pulled out my Bio Schaum's outlines (2nd edition) and the information from there vs Kaplan doesn't seem to match up. 👎

I am wondering what source would be a good source to study taxonomy with.
Please help!
Thanks

My test didn't have a lot of ultra-specific taxonomy questions like some of the Topscore bio sections. I just used Kaplan and Schaum's for taxonomy (focusing more on the latter, since it has a more extensive section on the subject if I recall correctly), and those seemed sufficient for me. Also, we had studied taxonomy a bit in a bio class I finished the term before my exam -- perhaps going over the taxonomy sections in your old biology textbook could help?

Which edition of Schaum's did u use? I have the second edition but some things seem different from Kaplan 😕
