How to Get the Most Out of Digital MCAT Flashcards
Using digital MCAT flashcards that pair spaced-repetition technology with industry-leading answer explanations is an excellent way to learn and reinforce difficult MCAT information. 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. Set daily, weekly, and monthly study goals based on your needs and schedule. Consider the activities and other obligations you have planned, as well as the amount of time you realistically have available to study. Be sure to incorporate flashcard review into your plan.
Revisit new concepts
When you come across new content in our QBank, make a point to create a flashcard and revisit the topic. Spaced repetition is a great tool that exposes you to the flashcards you struggle with more often, but you should also monitor the content areas you’re weaker in through our flashcard analytics interface.
Study with your flashcards frequently
Frequently reviewing your flashcards is an excellent way to keep MCAT material as the priority in your mind. Although many of your study sessions will involve practice questions and answer explanations, it is still beneficial to spend time reviewing flashcards. This review will help you recall and retain concepts you’ve been tested on in practice questions.
Prepare on the go
Perhaps the greatest strength of our digital MCAT flashcards is their ability to be reviewed from anywhere. This 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 (in addition to your other study efforts) 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."
