Most SE issues are too highlevel to be captured by a checklist. This should
make such lists almost useless for this purposes. Checklists are usegul as a
SE tool, when used for code reviews etc. but they don't help with issues of
design.
So I wouldn't put to much effort into finding such a checklist, it won't
help much (I know: I wrote the exam).
However making a list of the important concepts and insights we talked about
(like information hiding, modularization etc. etc.) should be very helpful
as part of preparing for the exam.
