Hello!

I have my anki settings as 1 10, easy 2 days, graduating at 3 days. This seemed to work fine for OMS-1, but OMS-2 is a new beast and I feel like I’m not remembering anything with my anki cards. Are there better settings to avoid card fatigue?? I am doing cards ALL day with a pretty low retention rate.

Thank you for any help!!

How many news a day do you aim to do?
Depends on what I am doing;

For boards, 100 a day.
For class, we have different decks for each class broken down into each test. So, for example, if its Tuesday and I have a test on Friday that has 250 cards, I do 125 new cards tuesday and Wednesday, then review all of them on Thursday. (I know each school is different on exam schedules, but that's how mine work)
 
@Rogue42 has the exact same settings I do. 3 15 - currently just an OMS-1 so just for class I like these settings.
 
How many news a day do you aim to do?
For class, I have my new cards set up as 9999 so then I see the cards I made that day. For Anking Board Prep, I have it set to 50 and I review 150, so I do 200 cards a day for the boards. Think that’s good?
 
I’m actually not a fan of seeing my cards more than once the first day.
