Why build your own GRE deck

Official ETS practice tests show you the real question style, but working through them once does not lock the content in. A GRE ETS flashcards deck made from your own annotated PDFs and notes keeps the facts you missed in front of you until they stick.

Flashcards generated from your own ETS prep PDFs, slides and notes
Spaced repetition that prioritizes the cards you miss
Quizzes with explanations to test yourself before test day
Free plan with 3 generations per month and browser study

Example GRE Quant and Verbal flashcards

What is the probability of rolling a sum of 7 with two fair six-sided dice?1/6, because 6 of the 36 equally likely outcomes sum to 7.

Formula for the area of a circleA = πr², where r is the radius.

Which measure of center is less affected by an extreme outlier, the mean or the median?The median, because one extreme value can shift the mean a lot but barely moves the middle value.

What does the Pythagorean theorem state for a right triangle?a² + b² = c², where c is the hypotenuse, the side opposite the right angle.

What does the word "corroborate" mean?To confirm or support a claim with evidence, which is why it often appears in reading passages about evidence.

Cards built from your material

Each flashcard comes from the passages and explanations in your own files, so your deck reflects the topics you actually need to review.

Reviews scheduled for you

Spaced repetition brings back the cards you miss more often and spaces out the ones you know well.

How it works

Upload your prep files

Add the ETS practice PDFs, notes or photos you are working from.

Generate your flashcards

DeckOwl creates a deck of question and answer cards from the text.

Study in the browser

Review cards on a spaced schedule. Paid plans add exports to PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV.

Because the cards come from your files, you can focus on weak areas such as data interpretation, sentence equivalence or specific algebra rules. You can also make a new deck after each practice test to track what changed.

Spaced repetition handles the scheduling, so you spend less time deciding what to review and more time answering questions.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for the GRE?

There is no fixed number that fits everyone. Many students start with one deck per practice test or per content area, and add cards for the questions they missed.

Which GRE topics work best as flashcards?

Short, factual items work well, such as formulas, vocabulary meanings and rules for quantitative comparison. Longer reasoning tasks are better practiced with full practice questions.

Can I use my ETS practice materials?

Yes, you can upload PDFs and other files you have access to for your own study. DeckOwl uses the text in those files to generate flashcards.

Do I need to pay to export my flashcards?

Yes. The free plan lets you study in the browser, while Plus and Pro include exports such as PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV. Students get 40% off with a school email.
