What to know before you pick an MCAT flashcards app

Many MCAT students look for a Kaplan MCAT flashcards app because a deck they can review in short sessions keeps content fresh across months of prep. DeckOwl does not include Kaplan's decks or content, but it can turn your own review material into a deck you control.

  • Works with the textbook chapters, lecture slides and practice explanations you already have
  • Cards can be reviewed in the browser on the free plan with no export
  • Plus adds unlimited generations and exports to Anki and CSV for other study tools
  • Pro adds a stronger AI model and bulk upload for large prep libraries
Example MCAT biochemistry flashcards
Which amino acids are the branched-chain amino acids?Leucine, isoleucine and valine. They are metabolized mainly in muscle rather than the liver.
What does the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation state?pH = pKa + log([A-]/[HA]). It relates the pH of a buffer to the pKa of a weak acid and the ratio of conjugate base to acid.
What is the difference between Km and Vmax in enzyme kinetics?Km is the substrate concentration at half of Vmax. Vmax is the maximum reaction rate when the enzyme is saturated with substrate.
Which cranial nerve controls the lateral rectus muscle?Cranial nerve VI, the abducens nerve, which moves the eye outward.
Where does the Krebs cycle take place in aerobic respiration?In the mitochondrial matrix. It oxidizes acetyl-CoA to CO2 and produces NADH, FADH2 and GTP per turn.

Upload what you study

Add PDFs, DOCX files, PPTX slides, plain notes or photos of pages. Images are read with text recognition.

Cards built from your material

Each generated flashcard comes from your own sources, so biochemistry pathways, organic reactions and psychology terms match your course.

Spaced repetition built in

Cards you miss return sooner and cards you know are spaced further apart, so review time goes to the facts you are still missing.

How it works

Upload your MCAT material

Drop in a PDF, slide deck, notes file or a photo of a textbook page.

Review the generated cards

Check the flashcards, edit any that need changes, and remove the ones you do not need.

Study on a schedule

Use the browser study mode on the free plan. Plus adds exports to Anki, CSV, PDF and DOCX.

The most useful MCAT cards are short, specific and tied to one fact. A card that asks for the full Krebs cycle is hard to grade honestly, while separate cards for each enzyme step are easier to review. Start with the topics your practice exams show you are weakest in, then add cards as new material comes in.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for MCAT biochemistry?

There is no fixed number. Make one card per distinct fact, such as one enzyme, one reaction or one formula, and split long passages into several cards.

How often should I review MCAT flashcards?

Spaced repetition schedules each card based on how well you recalled it, so difficult cards return sooner. Review daily in short sessions to keep the schedule working.

Does DeckOwl include official Kaplan flashcards?

No. DeckOwl creates flashcards from the files you upload, such as your notes, PDFs, slides or photos of pages.

Can I export my MCAT flashcards?

Yes, on the Plus plan at $39 per year or $7.99 per month, which includes PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export. The free plan studies in the browser with 3 generations per month.
