Why custom MCAT cards can beat shared decks

Many MCAT students look for MCAT Anki flashcards on Reddit, but a shared deck rarely matches the gaps in your own review. Someone else's deck may skip the topics your practice exams keep missing or repeat sections you already know well.

Use your own review book or lecture PDFs so the cards match what you will be tested on.
Edit AI drafts to remove anything wrong, vague or outside the MCAT scope.
Keep a single deck per section (biology, chemistry, physics, psychology) so review stays focused.
Export to Anki on the Plus plan if you want to continue in Anki.

Example MCAT flashcards for biochemistry and chemistry

Which amino acid is achiral because its side chain is a hydrogen atom?Glycine, since its alpha carbon is not a stereocenter.

What does the Michaelis constant (Km) represent?The substrate concentration at which the reaction rate is half of Vmax.

Which sign of delta G indicates a spontaneous reaction under constant temperature and pressure?Negative, meaning the reaction can proceed without outside energy input under those conditions.

What is the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation?pH = pKa + log([A-]/[HA]), relating pH, pKa and the ratio of conjugate base to weak acid.

What are the main products of one turn of the citric acid cycle per acetyl-CoA?Three NADH, one FADH2, one GTP and two CO2.

Cards from your own material

Upload PDFs, DOCX or PPTX files, plain notes, or photos of textbook pages. Text recognition reads the images so your cards match your course and your sources.

Spaced repetition built in

Cards are scheduled so you review the ones you are about to forget. You can study in the browser on the free plan.

Export to Anki on Plus

Plus includes Anki, PDF, DOCX and CSV export, so you can keep using Anki on your own schedule if you already prefer it.

How it works

Upload your MCAT material

Add a PDF, slide deck, notes file or photos of pages from your review books or lectures.

Generate and check your flashcards

Get flashcards, quiz questions and mind maps built from the content. Edit anything that does not match what your prep needs.

Study with spaced repetition

Review cards on the schedule the app builds for you, then export to Anki when you want to switch tools.

Making your own cards from the sources you study forces active recall on the exact wording in your materials. Turning a chapter on acid-base equilibria or enzyme kinetics into question-and-answer cards is a useful review step in itself.

DeckOwl reads your PDFs, slides, notes and photos, then drafts flashcards you can edit before you study. Spaced repetition keeps older topics in rotation so they do not fade before test day.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for MCAT biochemistry?

There is no fixed number, but a focused set of cards for each chapter is easier to review than one huge deck. Start with the terms, pathways and equations you keep missing on practice questions.

Should I use shared Reddit decks or make my own MCAT cards?

Shared decks can help as a starting point, but cards made from your own materials usually match your gaps better. Many students use both: a shared deck for ideas and custom cards for what they are reviewing now.

Can I export my flashcards to Anki?

Yes, Anki export is included on the Plus plan at $39/year or $7.99/month. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, but no exports.

Is there a free plan to try this?

Yes, the free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study, and no credit card is needed to start. Students with a school email get 40% off paid plans.
