Why build your own best SAT flashcards

Most SAT students end up comparing ready-made decks, but the best SAT flashcards are usually the ones built from the material you are actually studying. A card about a passage you missed on a practice test does more for your score than a generic word list.

  • Use cards for vocabulary, formulas, and grammar rules such as comma and semicolon use.
  • Add cards for each question type you miss on practice tests, not just facts you already know.
  • Keep cards short, with one fact on the front and one answer on the back.
  • Review weak cards more often than the ones you already recall easily.
Example SAT vocabulary and math flashcards
What does 'ephemeral' mean?Lasting for a very short time.
What does the Pythagorean theorem state for a right triangle?a squared plus b squared equals c squared, where c is the hypotenuse.
What is the slope of a line through (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?(y2 minus y1) divided by (x2 minus x1), the rise over the run.
What joins two independent clauses without a conjunction?A semicolon. A comma alone creates a comma splice.
What is the area of a circle with radius r?pi times r squared.

Built from your material

Upload PDFs, PPTX slides, DOCX files, plain notes or photos of pages, and get flashcards drawn from what you are studying.

Spaced repetition

Cards return at the intervals your memory needs, so SAT vocabulary, formulas and grammar rules stick over time.

More than flashcards

Turn the same notes into practice quizzes with explanations for each answer, or into a mind map of a reading passage.

How it works

Upload your prep material

Add a PDF, slides, notes or a photo of a page from your SAT prep book.

Review the generated cards

Check the flashcards and edit anything that needs fixing before you start studying.

Study on a schedule

Spaced repetition brings weak cards back more often until they stick.

Start by collecting the sources you already use: a prep book chapter, a teacher's slides, or your own notes from practice sections. Upload them and review the cards, keeping the ones that match your weak areas and deleting the rest.

Spaced repetition then does the scheduling, so vocabulary, math formulas and grammar rules come back right before you would forget them.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for SAT vocabulary?

Start with the words you missed on practice tests, then add a small batch each week so review stays manageable. Adding too many at once tends to slow down how much you retain.

Which SAT topics work best as flashcards?

Vocabulary, math formulas, grammar rules and reading question types all suit flashcards well. For math, pair each formula with a worked example so the card shows when to use it.

Can I export my SAT flashcards?

Exports are a paid feature. Plus includes PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export, and the free plan lets you study flashcards in the browser.

Is there a free plan?

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.
