One card may have a question (expression) and an answer (pronunciation, meaning).īy keeping the separate cards linked to the same fact, spelling mistakes can be adjusted against all cards at the same time, and Anki can ensure that related cards are not shown in too short a spacing.Ī special note type allows generation of cloze deletion cards (in Anki 1.2.x, those were ordinary cards with cloze markup added using a tool in the fact editor).Īnki supports synchronization with a free (but proprietary) online service called AnkiWeb. The user can design cards that test the information contained in each note. This example illustrates what some programs call a three-sided flashcard, but Anki's model is more general and allows any number of fields to be combined in various cards.

The name comes from the Japanese word for "memorization" ( 暗記). But should not be your sole source of studying.Anki ( /ˈɒŋkiː/ Japanese: ) is a free and open-source flashcard program using spaced repetition, a technique from cognitive science for memorization. Cards should be short and sweet with the close deletion only on testable facts so that you can fly through these cards and not waste time trying to figure out what is going on.

If you do use Anki, 100% upgrade to the AnKing Close Deletion card type and use close deletions. AnKing cards may be in greater detail when it comes to histology, biochem, embryology etc than what is presented in PA school IIRC back to PA school.

There's plenty of videos on how to do this. AnKing deck is huge, so search by tags like PAtoMD said to find topics. That being said, each person has their own style of decks and many group members ended up leaving and started just using the " AnKing Decks" as the cards have been continuously updated and improved by AnKi staff and med students along the way. My school started an "Anki Group" where a group of us take turns to sign up making decks for lectures and then post them to a spreadsheet and distribute to the class. I did this my first semester of med school and it was a lot of work. It can be cumbersome to make your own decks for every lecture. It will improve your exam and board scores if you do it right. 100% support using Anki if you become proficient at it and are able to use it efficiently.
