The FAA's wording
Additional aerodynamic devices, including vortex generators, wing fences, and stall strips.
What it means
AM.I.J.K11 is a knowledge element in the Physics for Aviation subject of the A&P General test. A knowledge element is something the FAA expects you to know, and the written test asks questions on it.

Seeing it on your score report
Your Airman Knowledge Test Report lists an ACS code for each question you missed. Seeing AM.I.J.K11 there means at least one of your wrong answers was on this element. The examiner retests every code on your report during the oral part of the practical test, so study it before then.
Sources: Aviation Mechanic ACS Companion Guide, FAA-G-ACS-1 (Change 2), ch. 2, p. 11 and ch. 5, p. 19; FAA-S-ACS-1, Appendix 1, p. A-1.
The examiner will ask about the codes you missed
"All deficient knowledge areas, as indicated by the ACS codes on the AKTRs, are retested during the oral portion of the test."
Your oral test is 4 random questions plus one for every code on your report, closed book. Our A&P Oral & Practical course builds a mock oral from the codes you tick, with a model answer and FAA source for every question, and a guide for every practical project. $49.
See Oral & PracticalTry a sample question on AM.I.J.K11
A jet that cruises at high subsonic speed has rows of small airfoils, arranged in pairs, on the upper surface of each wing. What do these vortex generators do?
