Usually, I am one of the people that does NOT use flash cards when I study. The reason is because I am a last minute studier, and I usually don't have to face studying for a long period of time. I am just wondering, do you think flash cards will help? Or would it be a waste of time? I am crunching on time right now, as in I am taking my exam at the end of July. I am only done with half of organic, and did most of chemistry during winter break. Except that I am planning to watch chemistry videos again, but this time just write some extra notes that I am missing. It is more of a review, and for biology section I am going to start on Evolution chapter soon. For the PAT, QR, and Reading those might be a little hard to study for or practice just because I am crunching on time. Please let me know if I should use flash cards, because I do not want to waste a week just making flash cards! Thanks!

P.S. If anyone made Anki flash cards for Cliff's & Chad's videos + Q's, then please attach them under this forum. As they say, it will help make flash cards, but I am really planning to add from what flash cards I have to save me time. Thanks !
 
Hmm, I would say the answer is up to you. Everyone studies differently. Personally I don't really use flashcards but I like to re-read sections of notes and then watch short videos/animations on topics I'd studied already. On the other hand some people LOVE flashcards/anki. I think if you use the "search" option in Anki, you should be able to find relevant decks. Also if you aren't a big flashcard person, you could only make flashcards on the things you have trouble remembering and not on every little thing. Find whats best for you, sorry I couldn't be of much help. Good luck! 🙂
