How To Use Anki Like A Pro [Full Step-By-Step Walkthrough]

Рет қаралды 1,345,144

Күн бұрын

One of the most powerful study tools out there for med students is Anki. But how do you use it like the pros who get honors?
There is no such thing as the perfect study tech stack. Everyone will have their own note-taking, flashcard, calendaring and reminder apps. For flashcards in particular, there’s Quizlet, Brainscape and many others. But what I often caution my students is to be careful about using tools just because your friends or someone you read or watch recommends it. Not every flashcard app fits the way you study. In fact, the wrong one can take up so much valuable time for studying.
Anki is an awesome app that I’ve used in med school all the way to this very day as a medical resident. Yes, it is not for everyone, but for those who are gearing towards getting better grades, having less stress studying and improving retention, then Anki can most definitely help.
Yet, it's not enough to just learn how to use it; you should also learn how others used it to blend with their studying. The exact same way I used Anki to graduate with honors and to keep up with my M.D. journey as an internal medicine resident may not work for you. But there are pieces and ideas that you can steal and implement to level up your studying and be the best med student you can be.

How to adjust the settings under "options" which controls the steps in minutes, maximum reviews, what the easy bonus/modifiers do, as well as the lapses, etc. 2. How to sync your cards to your other devices like phone/iPad and how to reverse sync them without messing it up (download vs upload) 3. How to use the burying/suspending features 4. How to use a controller like a PS4 controller or something along those lines to make it easy/quick/fun to go through cards. I had to get a friend to help me with it but that was a while ago and forgot how to do it myself now. Thanks man, I appreciate your help!

I am a premed student and to be honest after one year at college i learned the hardway that making notes is a waste of time. first of all i would never go back to look at the notes i made. and if i did go back to look at i wouldn't even be able to understand. secondly i would end up rewriting what was on the lecture slide onto my notes. And i found that i would always end up going to the lecture slides to actually learn the content. lastly i would never assign equal prioty to all the different topics i would learn. instead i would find myself going back and forth between the same topics. to conclude i want to say that you are a LEGEND for showing us these techniques. especially the screenshot Lecture slide style anki notes. i feel like this particular anki technique was what i have been waiting for my whole life. it so unbelievably easy to do. THANK YOU SO MUCH. I HAVE SUBSCRIBED BTW. 😉

Quick note at 14:20: You can actually export all the slides to image files to save you the time of screenshotting every slide: * Go to 'File' > 'Save As' or 'Export.' * Choose the image format (e.g., JPEG). * Select the location and click 'Save' or 'Export.'"

About a year and a half ago I was desperately looking for someone to break down Anki like this for me so I could use it for MCAT studying but I could not find anything online and my med school friends were not good at explaining it to me lol. I gave up on using it but now I really need to figure it out. THANK YOU SO MUCH!! This was seriously so helpful. God bless you, brother. A couple things that I wish were also included in this that I think would be really helpful: 1. How to adjust the settings under "options" which controls the steps in minutes, maximum reviews, what the easy bonus/modifiers do, as well as the lapses, etc. 2. How to sync your cards to your other devices like phone/iPad and how to reverse sync them without messing it up (download vs upload) 3. How to use the burying/suspending features 4.

OMG this video is the best one on Anki how does it have only 3-4K views? Just a question do you recommend not taking notes on the USMLE videos on Microsoft then and just take notes on Anki? Thanks Boss!

@TheMDJourney 3 жыл бұрын

You surely can do either. I just find it efficient to take notes in Anki. But you lose the organization of your original notes since Anki will essentially randomize your lecture notes after your initial pass

Like all the other comments, I want to thank you for your very useful video. I am about to start using Anki to further my studies of Spanish and I can see how useful this will be. This is the first comment I have ever written in response to a KZfaq video.

For ppts you can just copy the slide cntrl+C (or right click on slide and click copy) and then just paste it onto the anki with cntrl+v without screen snipping, also there is shortcut for windows screen snipping, which is: windows_key + shift + s.

Bonus tip: If you're a language learner, I recommend that make flashcards with the language that you want to learn to a simple picture of it. Don't learn the english version, because you have already know the english version. If you study with the translations rather than pictures, you will think always in english way to speak your desired language.

@cindylloyd306 Жыл бұрын

I think I understand what you're saying. So let's say the front is the English word and the back is an image of the foreign word equivalent. Use only images in the foreign language and without any English words in the image. Is that right? I did have a problem with that back in college when I was learning Spanish. I would have to translate it in my head and so I was very slow. I still do that and so I never mastered Spanish. I would also recommend that language learners use images that represent the English word on the front, instead of the English word. For example, an image of an apple on the front and on the back apfel (German).

Thank you. I'm just starting to add my cards, and haven't started studying with it yet, but the level of control and organization here is amazing. Honestly, it seemed like it would not be very user-friendly, but that doesn't seem to be the case after playing with it a bit. It's also more robust than it looks at first glance, and you can use it for much more than simple flash cards. I'm looking forward to importing the rest of my physical notes and implementing my ideas and begin studying with Anki. I hope it will be a great tool to add to my arsenal.
