How to Use Anki Effectively - Flash Card Basics for Pre-Med and Med Students Part 1 Flashcards, specifically Anki, are a great study resource for premed students and medical students. In my first ever video I explained the benefits of using Anki flashcards in your study routine. Here I go over how to efficiently and effectively use Anki as a tool to help you ace your tests. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7K2StK7e3ww&list=PL2ADAFpTg5aYuGojjD_O0mU1uml7Plw 2Q
Anki isn't a tool for memorizing simple facts. It's a tool for understanding almost anything
Do ANKI everyday - ANKI works only if used everyday
13 Steps for a better ANKI
Keep decks simple - One deck per one subject
First understand, then memorize
Lay the foundations first - Pareto principle Ankify only high yield information)
Follow minimum information principle - Do not make complex cards which are difficult to recall
Cloze deletions - Best type of cards
Use images, photos and figures
Use your own mnemonics

Rule 1 - “Every time you learn something new create a question and answer flashcard and add this card to Anki.”
Rule 2 - The second rule encourages a commitment to daily learning:
“You must use Anki every single day - including weekends and holidays - and commit to doing so indefinitely.”
Rule 3 - The third rule keeps you focused on what is important in the moment: “Learn in context. Pick a project, and learn only what you need to get it done.”
