Hello,

So I'm currently studying for the DAT:

I have started using anki ferralis (for biology) notes which are around 2400 cards. I changed the setting to allow 60 new cards a day. Today is my first true day studying and I only studied those flash cards for Bio, so I'm looking for some advice..

For the people who have used anki/ferralis notecards:

-how many did you do per day?
-did you study other subjects while doing it?


All DAT feedback is appreciated. I want to give myself 3 months to study...!

I didn't use the cards but as far as my notes went I tried to hit 5-10 pages per day (depending on how well I knew the subject I sometimes did a lot less and sometimes did a bit more) when I was in my final review phase. If it was my first time ever going through the notes I would expect my pace to be a lot slower and on par with the pace of the related chapter in Cliff's notes. I always studied other subjects while studying biology - I think you should always try to practice QR/PAT/RC every day (not a lot every day but enough to stay sharp), and general + organic chemistry both benefit from regular review and practice.
