Hi there! Do you have any videos showing how in depth you should go in research methods as a unit for SL vs HL?

Hello Mr. Dixon, I'm a student taking the May 2021 exam and I have a question about the 'additional terms' (for example, neural pruning) that you mentioned in your earlier videos as well as your blog post. I'm unsure if questions about "how neural pruning takes place" would come out since it isn't on the ib textbook or the websites that I use. Could you please clarify if all the italicized terms could come out on the exam? Thank you so much!
