Turn your MCAT notes into a high-yield Anki deck

Pre-made decks rarely match the review material you are actually using. Upload your MCAT notes, slides, or practice PDFs and get flashcards built from them, scheduled with spaced repetition.

Why build a high-yield MCAT deck yourself

Most shared high-yield lists cover content from someone else's prep path, so they can skip topics your practice tests show you need. A high-yield MCAT Anki deck works best when it is built from the materials you are already reviewing, such as your course notes and practice question explanations.

  • Start with the topics where your practice scores are lowest.
  • Write or generate one concept per card so each review is quick.
  • Add new cards in small batches so daily reviews stay manageable.
  • Keep explanations on the back short enough to recall under time pressure.
Example high-yield MCAT flashcards
What does the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation relate?It relates buffer pH to pKa and the ratio of conjugate base to weak acid: pH = pKa + log([A-]/[HA]).
What does the Michaelis-Menten equation describe?Reaction velocity as a function of substrate concentration, v = Vmax[S]/(Km + [S]). Km is the substrate concentration at half of Vmax.
Which hormone promotes water reabsorption in the kidney collecting duct?Antidiuretic hormone (vasopressin), which increases aquaporin-2 insertion in collecting duct cells.
What is the net yield of one turn of the citric acid cycle?3 NADH, 1 FADH2, 1 GTP (or ATP), and 2 CO2 per acetyl-CoA.
What does Boyle's law state?At constant temperature, the pressure and volume of a fixed amount of gas are inversely proportional.

Built from your sources

Upload PDFs, DOCX or PPTX files, plain notes, or photos of pages. The flashcards reflect the content you already study.

Spaced repetition included

Cards you miss come back sooner, and cards you know are spaced further apart, so review time goes to what needs it.

Anki export on paid plans

Plus and Pro users can export to Anki, CSV, or PDF. The free plan lets you study in the browser.

How it works

Upload your MCAT material

Add a PDF of your review book chapter, lecture slides, your own notes, or a photo of a page. No credit card is needed to start.

Check the generated cards

Read through the flashcards, remove any that are not useful, and keep the ones that cover the concepts you tend to miss.

Study and export

Review in the browser with spaced repetition, then export to Anki on a Plus or Pro plan if you prefer that app.

High-yield content usually means concepts that recur across sections, such as acid-base equilibria, enzyme kinetics, and respiratory physiology. Your own practice scores should decide which of those to study first, and a custom deck lets you turn that list into cards quickly.

Frequently asked questions

Which MCAT topics are usually considered high yield?

Concepts that recur across several sections, such as acid-base chemistry, enzyme kinetics, and gas laws, are generally treated as high yield. Your own practice test results should set your priorities, since they show where you lose points.

How should I review MCAT flashcards each day?

Keep sessions short and focus on the cards you miss most often. Add new cards gradually so the daily review load stays manageable.

Can I export my flashcards 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.

Do I need a credit card to start?

No, you can start without a credit card. Students can also get 40% off with a school email.
