Study med school material with flashcards you generate yourself

Med school packs a lot of facts into a short window, so a med school flashcard maker pays off when it turns your own lecture slides and notes into cards in minutes. Start with the material your professors assigned rather than a generic deck.

Upload lecture slides, PDF readings and DOCX handouts.
Photograph whiteboard diagrams or printed pages for text recognition.
Study in the browser on the free plan, with 3 generations per month.
Export to Anki or CSV on Plus when you want to keep reviewing elsewhere.

Generate the full set

Upload what you already have

PDFs, DOCX files, PPTX slides, plain notes and photos of pages all work as input.

Spaced repetition built in

Cards return at the intervals you need, so high-yield facts stay in memory before exams.

Quizzes and mind maps too

Multiple choice, true/false and short answer quizzes come with explanations, and mind maps help you map organ systems.

How it works

Add your material

Upload lecture slides, a textbook chapter PDF or photos of handwritten notes.

Generate and review

Get flashcards in one pass, then trim or edit any card that does not match your course.

Study on a schedule

Spaced repetition brings cards back at the right time, so your minutes go to what you forgot.

Good medical flashcards ask one thing at a time: a mechanism, a lab value, a sign or an adverse effect. Keep the front to a single question and the back to a short, checkable answer so repetition builds recall instead of recognition.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for a pathology exam?

Aim for one card per testable fact, such as a mechanism, a classic finding or a diagnostic criterion. Most students find that a few hundred focused cards cover a unit well, and you can add more as your course adds material.

Should med students study flashcards daily or in long sessions?

Short daily sessions work better than occasional marathons because spaced repetition depends on frequent reviews. Twenty to forty minutes a day is a common starting point, adjusted to your course load.

Can I export med school flashcards to Anki?

Yes, Anki export is available on the Plus plan at $39/year or $7.99/month, along with PDF, DOCX and CSV export. The free plan lets you study in the browser but does not include exports.

Does it work with photos of textbook pages?

Yes, images such as photos of pages are read with text recognition and turned into flashcards. Each image upload counts toward your generations, so the free plan includes 3 per month.
