How to Get the Most Out of MCAT Flashcards
Using digital MCAT flashcards that pair spaced-repetition technology with industry-leading content is an excellent way to learn and reinforce key MCAT concepts. Here’s how to get the most out of your experience:
Use flashcards in your study plan
Revisit new concepts
Study with your flashcards frequently
Prepare on the go
Use flashcards in your study plan
Your first step in your MCAT exam prep should be to create a study plan. Use our MCAT study planner to set daily, weekly, and monthly study goals based on your needs and schedule. Be sure to incorporate flashcard review into your plan.
Revisit new concepts
When you come across content you’re unfamiliar with in our UBooks and QBank, create a flashcard and study using our spaced repetition feature. Spaced repetition is a powerful tool that exposes you to the flashcards you struggle with more often so you master the concepts faster.
Study with your flashcards frequently
Frequently reviewing your flashcards is an excellent way to improve recall and keep MCAT material as the priority in your mind. Although many of your study sessions will involve content review and practice questions, it is still beneficial to spend time reviewing flashcards.
Prepare on the go
Our mobile app allows you to study multiple times per day, regardless of how full your schedule is. Even if it’s as little as flipping through flashcards during lunch, this consistent preparation will pay off in the long run.
MCAT Student Success Stories
UWorld has been instrumental in my content review. They have amazing explanations for each question. Their website's interface is easy to use with multiple functionalities that you can use at your disposal - the flashcard feature and notebook feature helps me organize the questions I would like to review over again."
— Jeremiah
I like how UWorld Qbank lets you simultaneously LEARN while you PRACTICE through detailed answer explanations that go deeper than the Question and Answers itself and thoroughly connect back to concepts to review. Also, features like 'notebook' and 'flashcards' enhance this active learning and practice."
— Nicole
The explanations are the best of any question bank I've used. They're detailed without being overdone. The notebook and flashcard features are very handy. The options for test making are flexible so you can really tailor the question blocks to your needs. 10/10 times I'd choose UWorld for studying for any big exam. There's no comparison."

MCAT Flashcards FAQs
