Do you ever pinch yourself like- oh sweet I’m in medical school and I’m doing really well both in it and on KZbin?? I know the grass is always greener, but what you have is what I want and i just want to see your perspective. Thanks for reading!! 😁

[@adhdlivingyourdreams9515]

She is always surprising her self, she talks pretty openly about it. This is her style its unique to her, you can get your dreams too. I wouldnt focus to much on what she has more then how she stays true to her self and her commitments, these are the excellent ways in which she navigates her world and accomplishes her dreams. I agree though with your holy shit mentality it would be so awesome to get to that point in one dreams, a surreal experience for sure. :)

[@briannag.1122]

Currently binging your videos (not necessarily in succession) and I have two thoughts: the first, I’m not in the medical field or have plans to pursue it but your videos and work ethic is super fun and motivating to watch. My second, is that I can tell that you’re giving some very valuable perspective by having this channel. Medical students obv but even those who are in similarly rigorous programs. I watched an earlier vid about how you really didn’t have much esteem for your academics in younger years and I can definitely relate. I didn’t try for anything bc I didn’t think I could achieve anything and I’m only just now starting the process of doing something. I like the perspective you give and can’t wait for all the rest of your vids. Much love from VA!

[@RachelSouthard]

Anki is NOT free on mobile devices. It is $25 there. HOWEVER, you do NOT need Anki for your mobile device. It is a luxury for doing cards. You NEED Anki on your laptop/desktop computer. That is where you will make cards!

[@GlorWolf]

Is it? I just downloaded it for free on the android store

Lol.. Me too

Which one do you have on your phone ? There are a few options - Anki Flashcard Maker , AnkiApp , AnkiApp Flashcard .. just want to make sure I'd be getting the proper one ! Thank you

[@TheMostChilled]

There is a complete set of open source tools out there (including Android, sadly not iPhone) and a commercial set of tools which takes advantage of the same ecosystem but sells it. xD Devastating. See www.reddit.com/r/Anki/comments/71bhyy/ankiapp_is_not_part_of_the_anki_ecosystem/ Open Source stuff is available here: apps.ankiweb.net/ "AnkiApp" is the one which is commercial (and has way less features)

[@conniewilliamson973]

@@yez955 the way Anki works is it shows you the cards that you're about to forget instead of you picking what to review. It has an algorithm that spreads out review so that you can learn new information but at the same time not forget the old information (this is called a spaced repetition system)

[@yez955]

really really late answer, but those random numbers beside the cloze means that she imported a premade deck, the numbers are created for a note type downloaded from pre made deck. You can use the normal cloze one or search in reddit for another note types that you like, it doesn't really affect it

I really hope you see this, I've watched a bunch of your videos and noticed that you have a really different setup for review/viewing your lectures. What program are you able to use that allows you to view both the powerpoints for lecture and the actual lecture video at the same time? Is this something you've made or is it something your professor's post for you. I am in nursing school and plan to pursue NP and I would love to get my hands on whatever program you have! Best wishes, thanks for your videos- they are extremely motivational and insightful.

[@ahStarwok]

How do I set it so that I can review the deck cards as many times as I want in a single day? Once I complete the deck it says "Congratualtions you're done for now" and won't let me redo it for some time.

What’s the difference in clicking a button for the cloze deletion answer to pop up or clicking the button for the answer to pop up without the cloze deletion? I guess what I’m trying to say is no matter which style you choose, when you click, the answer is revealed in the same manner right ??

How long does it take you to make your cards? I want to start using it, but Im scared its going to take a lot of time to make them. Its one of the reasons why i dont make quizlets.

[@ariannamakenna4611]

Can anyone give me a comparison on using this compared to using quizlet? I definitely see that this has a lot more functions than quizlet, but it also seems a lot less user friendly. If anyone has any insights, let me know!!

[@alyssavictoria7645]

I think both are good for different reasons. I use Quizlet for easier classes and when I just need to memorize terms without putting too much thought into them (for my non-nursing classes lol). Quizlet is nice because it will autofill terms for you if it has a record of it which can save you time. For my nursing classes, I use Anki because I love the way it tests you by having terms reappear at later dates as she explained here, and there is way more you can do in terms of editing your cards. Quizlet interface is def prettier to look at and way more user-friendly for beginners, but once you start playing around with Anki and getting the hang of it, its a game-changer. Anki also has add-ons which are a huge bonus. You can even import your Quizlet terms into there if you want.

[@Recommendable]

Rachel, once I have created my deck (Basic and reversed card) in the following manner - front TARGET LANGUAGE and back ENGLISH, Can I Flip/swap the language order of the cards in an easy and fast way (one button change/click - like it was in Quizlet) before I practice them in my daily sessions? Thank you in advance.

Don't understand something. If I got it right, do I pick the red (again) option or green (good) option or the blue (easy) option

[@hcm9999]

The biggest problem is why use flashcards in the first place. I have never used flashcards. I don't understand them. I don't know why anyone would want to use them. First, it takes a long time to write them. Second, it may take a long time to read them and get the answers correctly. Third, they look boring, tiring, tedious and time-consuming. Why not just read a book? In the same time you create and read flashcards you could just read a book. Or, if you are studying something like Physics or Mathematics, you should just solve a bunch of exercises from a textbook. Most textbooks have plenty of exercises for you to practice. All you have to do is solve them. The book author already prepared all the exercises for you, you don't need to write them, unlike flashcards. If you are learning a foreign language you should read as much as possible. Reading is the best way to acquire vocabulary. You consult the dictionary for the words necessary to understand the text. Reading is much more fun, entertaining and engaging than using flashcards. By reading you always see the word in context. Flashcards on the other hand take the words out of context. It is much harder to memorize and understand them. Flashcards are completely inefficient compared to just reading.

[@Lyfewithlysha]

Hilarious I was looking up how to use anki and you came up first 😊 I’ve been watching you since you started lol

[@lizmosorio]

What tips do you have for organic chemistry? Would you recommend Anki?

[@lanafuller4949]

i would. Or Quizlet. And i am really good at O Chem.

[@lanafuller4949]

For reactions, put your starting molecule on the left, reagents on the arrow that is pointing to the product molecule, and the product molecule to the right of the arrow. That's your answer on 3 cards. For each card, the question is a question mark in place of the starting molecule but showing the reagents on the arrow as well as the product molecule or molecules, another card is a question mark in place of the reagents on the arrow but showing the starting molecule and the product molecule(s), and the third card is a question mark in place of the product molecule but showing the starting molecule structure and the reagents on the arrow. Draw your answers on a small whiteboard with dry erase markers, compare to the actual answer after you draw your answer. This is also an excellent way to learn Glycolysis and the Citric Acid Cycle, just fyi. For naming, just have the molecule structure, obviously. Draw the molecule on your whiteboard, and number your carbons and substituents, find your parent chain, etc, and then write the entire name of the molecule out. Compare what you wrote to the correct name on the card you made.

[@emilyreeves7854]

Hi Liz! I recommend checking out the Organic Chem as a Second Language book. Read the first 2 chapters and do the exercises before you start your first semester of OCHEM I. Also, watch some videos online to gain familiarity with line bond structures (the Organic Chem Tutor on youtube is great!). I did this, and I felt prepared going into my first class:) Keep up with your work--do practice problems and watch videos online. Your lectures will NOT give you all the information you need. Utilize your textbook, online resources, etc. A lot of people like Chad's Prep videos for OCHEM, so that's another resource. And lastly, DON'T BE SCARED! People like to talk about how hard OCHEM is, but it's not impossible. It just requires a lot of time. I'm from a non-science background, and I'm going back to school to pursue a health career. And I'm making an A:) So it's possible!
