Why build your own A&P deck instead of downloading one

A premade set can cover the basics, but an Anki deck for anatomy and physiology built from your own lectures matches what your instructor actually tests.

  • Cards cover the structures and terms in your own syllabus
  • Spaced repetition schedules reviews of the cards you tend to miss
  • Quizzes with explanations test the same material in a different format
  • Export to Anki on the Plus plan once the deck is ready
Example anatomy and physiology cards for an Anki deck
Which heart chamber pumps oxygenated blood to the body?The left ventricle, which has the thickest muscular wall of the four chambers.
What is the functional unit of the kidney?The nephron, made of a renal corpuscle and a renal tubule that filter and process blood.
Which bone is the longest and strongest in the human body?The femur, the thigh bone.
What does pulmonary surfactant do?It reduces surface tension in the alveoli so they do not collapse during exhalation.
Where does gas exchange occur in the lungs?In the alveoli, where oxygen diffuses into capillary blood and carbon dioxide diffuses out.

Your own course material

Upload PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, text notes or photos of pages, and get cards from the chapters your instructor actually uses.

Spaced repetition

Cards you miss come back sooner, so structures, pathways and terms stick before the exam.

Anki export

On Plus, export to Anki along with PDF, DOCX and CSV, so the deck works in the app you already study with.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a PDF, slide deck, notes file or a photo of a textbook page.

Frequently asked questions

How many cards should an anatomy and physiology deck have?

There is no fixed number. Most students do better with one card per distinct fact, such as a structure and its function, than with long cards covering a whole chapter. Start with one lecture or unit so the deck stays manageable.

What is the best way to study A and P flashcards?

Study in short daily sessions and say the answer out loud before flipping the card. Spaced repetition brings back the cards you miss more often, which helps with long lists of structures and pathways.

Can I export the deck to Anki?

Yes, on the Plus plan at $99.90 per year or $9.99 per month, which also includes PDF, DOCX and CSV export. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, but no exports.

Do I need a credit card to start?

No. You can start on the free plan without a credit card, and students get 40% off with a school email.
