Spaced repetition

Cards you miss come back sooner, and the ones you know fade into longer review gaps.

Study anywhere

How it works

Upload your prep material

Add your course notes, the licensing outline or slides from class. Photos of printed pages work too.

Review the generated cards

Check the terms and definitions, then remove or edit any card that does not match your course.

Study in short sessions

Work through the deck daily, and let spaced repetition bring back the cards you find hardest.

Good cards hold one fact each. Agency duties, easements, contract requirements and the roles of the state licensing agency are good starting points, because they show up in many forms on the test. Write the question on the front and the answer on the back, then keep a separate list of anything you get wrong so you can review it more often.

A short daily session of 15 to 20 minutes usually works better than one long cram session before the exam. Spaced repetition handles the scheduling, so you spend your time on the cards you have not yet learned.
