how I studied my first year of medical school (block exams, anatomy, and DOCS)

[@michelleannaaao]

I feel like ive heard you talk about making anki cards while watching lecture 100x... but I was too stubborn/lazy to actually do it. Until now & already game changer. thank you for sharing!!

yaay glad it helped!!

[@francescac7946]

I’m not in med school but I’m in a genetic counseling grad program and this video is really helpful! Just started using anki because of your videos and so far I’m liking it!

[@itslifebymaggie]

That’s awesome to hear, so glad it was helpful!!

hi!! maybe you can show us how you make your flashcards (like show us actual flashcard samples hehe). i’m having a hard time doing anki cards and listening lectures both at the same time cos there’s just too much to take note of that before i can even finish creating one card, the professor is already jumping onto the next presentation slide. hope you can respond to this! thank you!!

[@GhettoGirl694]

That's exactly what I do w/lecture and anki cards

[@itslifebymaggie]

Nice!!

[@asiapetitte6059]

how many anki cards do you average per lecture? I feel like I always make too many!!

[@vezzaz2051]

Hi 👋 Love your page. What quantity of questions do you have your Anki deck set for? I feel like I’m drowning in questions I don’t have time to get through but I don’t know how to adjust it. Thanks in advance !

[@marianaolono348]

Thank you for the video! You’re the definition of “study smarter not harder!” So you do anki cards and watch sketchy videos (sometimes), what about books, do you read med books? I just started implementing anki in my daily life and since I'm a premed, i was wondering if you recommend to make decks for each unit within a semester (in Bio for example) or make them all together?

[@itslifebymaggie]

I definitely prefer to make all the cards in one deck, not separated! And I would occasionally skim First Aid for helpful mnemonics but I never read any chapters to study in med school!

Amazing video! You remind me of the lady from the “Sailing Uma” youtube channel! I feel like you both share a resemblance! Lmk what you think!

[@younisakram6424]

awesome video

[@angelinafuryes5249]

Hi, when completing Anki cards from the premade decks for the sketchy videos you watch, what premade deck are you using? Please let me know, thank you!

[@abbierieder5807]

How do you keep up with Anki reviews without doing them on the weekend?

[@Ryan-bv9uu]

Do you usually get the lecture slides after class? Also, do you get to use your notes on a test if you did make notes?
