The Best Way to Make Effective Flashcards ~ Advice, Tips, Dos & Don'ts for Productive Revision ✨

[@UnJadedJade]

Heyy! I really hope this video helps you out in some way 😉 I also just thought I'd point out that there isn't really ever a "right" way to revise, and although these tips have been really useful for me and when helping others, they may not work for you! I think it's important to try out new things and ultimately use whatever works best for you. You can even make flashcards online or on an app if you prefer! Good luck with it all, and enjoy ✨ x

[@ruchi1764]

UnJaded Jade Thank you for making this video!! My year 10 mocks are coming up and I’m really scared. This will help me for history and science so much thanks!

[@Alan-dd2bn]

Ruchi LOL mate don't worry about your year 10 mocks which are in 2 months, my GCSEs are in 2 WEEKS! 😶

[@ruchi1764]

Alan Wali omg good luck, hope you do well! My mocks start on 10th may lol

[@Alan-dd2bn]

Ruchi Oh thanks! Oh I thought your mocks would be after the year 11 GCSE exams... Anyways my advice for you is to not revise heavily over the summer (maybe just 3-4 hours a week) but maybe go over the science content and revise one subject that you are the weakest at out of all your subjects as that will help you in year 11. Don't revise too much because you won't have any steam left to revise near to your real GCSEs, I promise! (I may be fed up with revision haha)

[@mollytaylor335]

Thanks, this is so so so so helpful. Have a good week!

[@jasmineamber6109]

- flashcards should never be rewritten class notes - the most effective flashcards are ones that make you engage with them and think - summarise information on them - replace words with symbols/pictures/abbreviations. - write questions on the flashcard and do the answers on the back - miss out words in quotes and on the back, fill them in - written prompts, themes/characters or diagram prompts - make it visual: use colour, highlighters. - remove unnecessary words, only include keywords​.

[@mariethavermeulen1714]

Thaanks for this amazing summary❤

[@mangakasaide2166]

the first, third and last points the same meaning

[@tolufaith_]

I saw this video was 10mins, so i came straight to the comments for this

[@bryanedward9597]

Too much text!

[@Max-bi3sx]

Thank you..!!

[@charlbay509]

Jade knows how to get her knowledge across , that’s why I love her vid. It’s all very well saying ‘I revise 9 hours a day’ to motivate someone but jade actually articulated how she revises!!!

[@poppyrendall847]

The way I do flashcards that got me through A-Levels and the uni so far is by using a traffic light method. I read the card and try and see how well I know the content (or how comfortable I am with it and that topic). If I know it off by heart and I can get full marks in a relative question then I highlight the front with a green line, then yellow is moderate knowledge and red is very little knowledge. I will do this with all of my flashcards and after two sessions of revising them I move all of the green cards to a separate pile (or I put them at the back) and I concentrate more on the red and yellow ones. If you do this for a few days/weeks I promise you will have committed more to memory than just passively reading the cards. I hope this helps someone!

[@bobbuilder7021]

ThanQ v much Poppy

[@mari-we3ct]

thank you so much! even tho im two years late haha

[@iftikharanis7662]

Thank you

[@annymus4502]

What if I want to change the colour?

[@jennyxx4_367]

i use to do this with faces in primary school when i had spelling tests and i would get full marks every single week so this 100% worked for me great advice

[@SherrySayss]

Extremely helpful because I was planning to start making flash cards because I’ve never really made flash cards

[@queenbrii98]

Sherry Says let's support eachother!

[@bitap4044]

SAME HERE!🤩💖

[@anerd6979]

So how did it go? 😅 Using flashcards I mean. If you ever did

[@noobyoutubers9417]

“I’m just a lil gal... trying my best” Same 😂

[@annanatasha6198]

You are like the big sister I never had 💕

[@bobbuilder7021]

That is such a beautiful comment.

[@MaheenKhan-m4v]

oh my god awwwww

[@rashakhan7693]

Soo true!

[@daddyjenkins8553]

I love the fact that she's always smiling and laughing in her videos! Watching her laugh or hearing her voice rise when she's about to laugh makes me laugh for some reason.

[@hindmehmood7497]

MyLittleForest yes, I know right!!!!

[@livcoleman3692]

Tell me I’m not the only one who would pay MONEYY for her biology and chemistry flash cards to revise from lol

[@hgriffithshlg]

This is the best video you’ve EVER made! I’m an aural learner and I find it difficult to revise effectively without dragging someone round with me to test me 😂 I get bored of writing flashcards out but the symbol thing is such a good idea - dankeschönnn x

[@xTerpsichore]

Hannah Griffiths oh have you tried quizlet,if you learn well by testing then I think you will love it. Still have to make the flashcard though :p but better :D

[@hgriffithshlg]

xTerpsichore Yeah I use Quizlet, but I find I just learn the first couple of words and learn how to match them up, rather than learning the actual content

[@xTerpsichore]

Oh yes I understand, our brains are lazy that way haha but there is an option where you have to write it out fully, no? :)

[@hgriffithshlg]

xTerpsichore Yes, but in sociology for example, I need to learn the study and the person that carried it out. I only end up remembering one of them because whichever I’m writing out is what I remember

[@xTerpsichore]

hmmm yes flaw in the system...

[@LianaHaines]

I was just going to make some flash cards for biology tonight, this video couldn’t have been more perfectly timed!! 💗

[@neles.1365]

Liana Haines oh gosh same... biology tonight it is🙊🤗

[@anmolvirdee7119]

This girl is amazing and soo relatable

[@queenbrii98]

Anmol Virdee right !!??

[@roopachebolu9678]

Hey Jade ❤️ it's a very random comment but i really wanted to tell you that i found your channel some days ago and now I'm obsessed (in a good way) i just love love love your channel, your video content and the way you motivate us all. You're so beautiful Jade and you have a very pretty smile! Never let that go away. I'm currently having my cies and you've inspired me so much to work hard.

[@charliewilliamson8360]

[@polinavelkova848]

I was literally just making some flashcards for chemistry and i was so happy when i got a notification for your video😍 this really helped me out. Thank you Jadeeee xxxxx

[@sananaz3878]

I love the writing note at the end! Jade it's so motivating love u

[@jodielc1031]

You seem like such a happy person, you’re constantly smiling throughout your videos and I can tell you enjoy this so much which is refreshing x

[@connie5562]

Oh my gosh Jade! Your videos are always SO perfectly timed ❤️ I’m about to do some flash cards for English language AS aghhhh thank you so much I love you and your soul and your kindheartedness and just YOU!

[@UnJadedJade]

This is the SWEETEST comment, thank you so much! ☺️ I really hope it helped in some way (& good luck with the English language flashcards!) x

[@connie5562]

UnJaded Jade you’re honestly such an inspiring woman. Thank you for your help. Also the video on the law of attraction has changed my life so much. I can’t thank you enough, you’re incredible ☺️ I so wish I could meet you in person, I feel like we would get on well x

[@karencanispeaktothemanager5340]

Your energy is so contagious. You’ve helped me a lot, I’ve recently chosen Bio and Chem as higher levels in my IB. Thank you so much❤️

[@chloemcconachie7203]

Anyone agree that watching her videos makes you motivated and excited to revise?

[@mariamshah338]

Flash cards are my best friend! They’re fun and engaging for me and they encourage me to keep reviewing the material.

[@teealbazi1451]

The life saver of A-levels herself ^

[@brianwalker2201]

This girl is a legend! So helpful. Just started 3 A-levels and she is a godsend.

[@emaanm3555]

you are such an inspiration and positive role model thank you

[@solaramazin3704]

This was so helpful thank you❤ what I like about your videos that you always explain something in your own style with your own experience, you do not just say do this or don't do that and leave us to be.

[@michellekaren2090]

I never used to really use flashcards in my revision and seeing everyone using them I thought that it'd be useful but it just wasn't for me. But seeing this video I thought I'd add in a new revision technique and flashcards could really be useful to me now!!

[@simrankaur8281]

Hi Jade, I'm in year 9 at school and I got back an English essay today. I used your structure and I got a 7 which is a huge improvement from last time!! Thank you so much!!

[@esthergreenwood7644]

I’m in year 9 and already stressing about GCSE’s. I have 3 next year and then the other 8 in year 11. Your videos help me so much! I really want to get the best grades I can and I think your channel will help me achieve that. Your tips are always so useful and you’re so inspiring. Lots of love x

[@steppenwolf9296]

I don’t know how I’ve only JUST found out about your channel. You are literally so inspiring and gorgeous and your tips actually sound legitimate instead of just sounding overly generalised. I actually wanted to give Minerva a go as well (I’m not too positive about what the results will be but I certainly will try hard!) and you are such a big help. Love you so much Jade and really appreciate your channel!

[@lifeisbeatiful3657]

I mainly use flashcards for learning definitions (for economics) and learning German vocab. I then use a system where you take all of the flashcards, place them in three piles: first pile is the ones you haven't learnt yet, the second is for those that you've looked over but aren't 100% sure that you know and the third is for the flashcards that you know off by heart. The aim of this is to get all of them into the third pile, then the process starts again, until all of the information is stored properly. I hope this helps some people.

[@alyaaathirajasmine8716]

IVE LITERALLY STARTED USING FLASHCARDS YESTERDAY AND THIS IS SOOO SO HELPFUL! this channel is just a 💎

[@sophia.3023]

oh my goodness. this video is a life changer, Thanks so much, i got so used to using big words and writing massive paragraphs and this video helped me to understand making it bold and clear and just short words.

[@kaitlyngamezz46]

Thank you so much for this video!! I've never understood how to revise from flashcards, this video explained a lot! Thank you, and it was very well needed!

[@finnpieters7113]

Wow, this is so helpful. Thank you! I've seen lots of people saying USE FLASHCARDS, but I've never actually been sure how to make them. Now I do!

[@jamesshek4441]

She smiles in every video.... what makes me like her

[@syzhnnnn]

I'm gonna start studying back as a uni student few weeks ahead! I'm so excited since lots of studyoutubers keep updating about revision! Thanks Jade!!!

[@exterart9269]

When she said summarise It reminded me of my mom WHEN I SAY TAKE OUT THE TRASH I MEAN TAKE OUT THE TRASH

[@danijane2819]

underrated comment 😂 😂 😂

[@user-rb2ih9rr7m]

WOW IM SO EARLY I LOVE YOU JADE YOU ARE SO AMAZING AHHH I FEEL LIKE EVERYONE JUST NEEDED THIS VIDEO WITH END OF YEARS COMING UP!

[@daisysemma]

[@anmolvirdee7119]

Jade I absolutely love you u are the perfect person and who I aspire to be

[@ana13800]

You would make a really good teacher!! You are really motivating and helpful!! 😊💙

[@shahmeenawan4788]

Jade you are the most helpful person on KZbin!

[@TarlokSimonBoytonSingh]

I learned quite a few things. But more importantly I was moved by you intelligence and enthusiasm. x

[@erikoono]

1. Flashcards should not be rewritten class notes 2. Making flashcards is not revision . Make them first to revise in the future. 3. Make as early as u can, straight away make a flashcard after coming home 4. SUMMARISE ******* 5. Start of flashcard can be summary of whole chapter - keypoints 6. Flashcard peak - replace commonly use words with symbols, pictures 7. Little text as possible 8. Empty space 9. engage with the content more 10 abbreviate common/Long words - difficult : diff. 11. Question to test yourself 12. Use questions you gotten wrong 13. Miss out words in quotes 14. Written prompts 15. make it VISUAL 16. Diagrams and visual prompts to answer Qs 17. Remove unnecessary words, cut down as much words as possible

[@supirinc179]

Up until now I’ve just passively written all my flashcards. There wouldn’t be any point of me remaking them but next year I’m all sorted thank you jadexxxx

[@beautyful113]

thank you jade , i've been copy paste my notes into my flashcard and yes my brain was ready to explode until you upload this video,thank you so much !

[@charlottegibbs2965]

This video was so helpful as I have just bought a pack of 500 flashcards for GCSE Science and I have to admit that I was going to copy out my class notes. After watching this video I understand that it is all about summarising. Thank you! Xx

[@maybemaybemaybe333]

This has got to be one of your best videos yet. Love you Jade! You make me so motivated and have the best advice

[@bintzubair]

Seriously never been so early!! I'd been waiting for you to make this video since forver!!! Finally it's here!! Love you Jade! You're a true motivation whenever I don't feel like learning. Keep it up! ❤❤

[@UnJadedJade]

Awhh Zainab! 🙈 thank you so much for the kind words! I really hope everything's going well for you at the moment! Lots of love x

[@bintzubair]

[@phoebeh4250]

This is SUCH a brilliant video!! I am definitely guilty of copying out my notes onto a card then hoping for the best! Quite glad I now know how to do these in an effective way to learn all those geography processes :) Thanks Jade!! x

[@katy3901]

Wow, uploads are coming fast! Thank's for this- I use quizlet a lot for flashcard style revision, but normal paper flashcards are so much easier to work with!

[@Mark-xg1if]

I’ve really needed a flash cards video. Thanks jade

[@senthilkumarvaishali7767]

this makes making flashcards so much fun! thank you xx

[@meetalipalekar3168]

I was really in need of thz video abt flashcards. After I watched it I realised that I just copied the notes n nothing else, thanx jade for the video 😘❤

[@MySecretLife]

Honestly the end of this video made me cry! Jade you are SO beautiful and kind and this is JUST the video I needed (after a very long day of Chem A-Level!). I love you

[@vmcnamara2391]

Jade. Good luck with your exams. Beastly things but they open doors to your future an set you off on the next exciting journey. Take time to decide on what you want to do and don't beat yourself up if you don't have fixed plans. Follow both your heart and your head and accept that sometimes it takes a while to really decide what you want to do next. Have fun making your choices.

[@moongonemadmode1067]

Never stop smiling girl😁☺️👍🏼

[@Chihiro99685]

I can also relate to what all you say in your videos which just helps me a lot. sorry i can't write as much as iwant to atm because im going to have my first maths ig tomorrow i need to prepare for it. It would be a greater help for me if you could give some tips for my igs that I am going to do this year. Once again tysm for all the hard work you have done for us so far.

[@shreyavenkateshwar]

[@aino8958]

here i am watching this type of video while i'm on holidays.. no but honestly i had to leave a comment on this one as this is definitely one of the best revision related videos i've come across to. i love the way you explained everything in a simple but detailed way. i found this very helpful, thank you! i'm very new to your channel but every video i've seen so far has been so well done. i'm not exaggerating, you truly are amazing.

[@UnJadedJade]

Wow. I can't thank you enough for this; it means more than you know! x

[@suraiyababuloishi4544]

Most wanted video.....thanks jade...I have seen you revising using flash cards many time.....xo xo

[@Maria-vo2es]

Thank youu! What I like to do is print out the spec and type it all out and cover the “students should know...” stuff in detail, and I cover every inch of it because they can’t ask anything not in it. Then I print it out and use you blurting method for each topic and subtopic to make sure that I remember it. Xxxx

[@adverspace]

Thanks , I’ve been thinking what to write and what not to on my flash cards. Great video!!

[@emmakeery8319]

I was revising for exams with your two hour study with me in the background when you uploaded this. SO HELPFUL AND MOTIVATING TO KEEP GOING!! Great timing with this video cause I just bought a new pack of flash cards. :) XX

[@gehadkhaled6113]

that is very useful for me jade , specifically for someone like me who is a visual learner , so thank u so much , love u 💕

[@Atoshi531]

Just lived through the exam season which was stretched over two long months. I must admit that your revision techniques helped me so much, especially the one that you call "blurting". But ahhh watching this video while knowing that I am done with school now and don't have to make flashcards for the time being makes me soooooo happyyy. ALSO ALSO ALSO, that is a very pretty leaf wow!

[@moongonemadmode1067]

My mum: Are you revising? Me: Yeet - shows mum evidence flashcards- Mum: Thats a waste of paper! Me: - shows mum video- think again Mum: *shook*

[@savannahsmith6096]

This was so useful as I’m about to start making my gcse flash cards

[@jiminsforehead8570]

If you are seeing this I recommend you use the app anki for your flashcards. It uses spaced repetition and does it all for you. You wont regret it

[@elliecowna7549]

Omg love this, I use flashcards for everything and I think it will help a lot, thank you so much Jade xx

[@alicecd2702]

Hi Jade - I just wanted to say thank you for this video, you have such good flash card advice! I'm currently sitting my veterinary finals 😱😥 but this has helped me focus my revision tonight for my equine paper tomorrow 🐎 if only I'd known about the power of drawing little cartoons sooner!

[@UnJadedJade]

Awhh Alice! Thank you so much ☺️ wow, so much respect for you! Wishing you all the luck for your equine paper (so cool!) and I hope the cartoons can help in future haha! lots of love x

[@emilyformstone4898]

Love your idea of the question flashcards with diagrams as prompts! I'm a fan of jam packed flashcards as I do them for physics so there's lots of graphs and equations etc x

[@sajini3156]

This was so helpful. I have only realised that I have been using flashcards in a completely wrong way. I have loads of test coming up and this is going to help me a lot! Thank you soooo much ♥️♥️♥️♥️

I literally planned out my revision to specifically do flash cards after this video!! Thank you so much! X

[@jasmineabdy5237]

Love this video! I would love to see more videos like "how I revise (insert subject here) " and "how I make class notes" or something xx

[@stellaforde8378]

A fun technique I discovered is using the origami chatterboxes I made in primary school. I put questions as well as answers on them. Then I can test my friends on them and I eventually learn the answers! Thanks Jade! x
