Turn your own IM residency notes into an Anki deck
Pre-made decks rarely match your program's conferences, rotations or board focus. Upload what you are actually studying and get flashcards with spaced repetition that you can take into Anki.
Why build your own deck
Residents often start with a shared Anki deck for internal medicine residency, and a shared deck is a fine place to begin for the classics. It will not reflect your program's noon conference slides, the attending who always asks about fluid management, or the topics your last in-training exam exposed.
- Cards come from your rotation notes, conference slides and reading, not a generic list.
- Spaced repetition schedules reviews so you revisit weak areas before they fade.
- Anki export on Plus lets you keep one deck across residency and board prep.
- Students get 40% off with a school email.
Built from your sources
Upload PDFs, PPTX slides, DOCX files, plain notes or photos of pages. Text recognition reads images, so handwritten-to-print pages and scanned handouts work too.
Spaced repetition in the browser
Cards are scheduled for review so the hardest facts come back more often. Free accounts can study right in the browser.
Export to Anki on Plus
Plus includes PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export, so your residency deck can live in Anki alongside your other decks.
How it works
Upload your material
Add the lectures, case conference slides, chapter PDFs or notes you use on service.

Making cards from your own material keeps review tied to what you will actually be tested on. Upload a PDF, a set of slides or photos of handwritten notes, and DeckOwl generates flashcards with spaced repetition. You can start on the free plan with 3 generations per month and no credit card.

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should I make for internal medicine boards review?
There is no fixed number that works for everyone. Generate cards chapter by chapter or lecture by lecture, and focus on the high-yield topics you keep missing so each deck stays manageable.
What should I prioritize when studying for internal medicine residency?
Most residents concentrate on acute care, electrolyte disorders, cardiology and infectious disease, since these come up often on wards and boards. Turning your own case notes and conference material into cards keeps that review tied to real patients.
Can I export my DeckOwl deck to Anki?
Yes, Anki export is included in the Plus plan at $39/year or $7.99/month. The free plan lets you study in the browser but does not include exports.
Is there a free way to try it before paying?
Yes, the free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study, and no credit card is needed to start. Students get 40% off with a school email.
