This is a pretty general question that I'm sure "depends" a lot on how individual professors write their exams, but I thought I'd at least see what people had to say.
I'm wondering to what extent professors expect you to understand rules/applications that aren't covered in assigned readings and class discussions. I'm asking because it seems like any time you are covering a topic, say unilateral contracts, you may read only about acceptance and notice of acceptance...and never discuss anything else. Obviously there are a ton of layers to each assigned topic that can be pulled back for hours and hours.
My question is do most professors just implicitly expect you to fill in those gaps in the syllabus on your own? Is it expected that rules not contained in assigned reading will show up on exams?
