Why custom CGP maths flashcards beat ready-made decks

Ready-made sets rarely line up with what your teacher covered, so CGP maths flashcards work best when they come from the pages you are actually revising. A card on the quadratic formula is far more useful when it follows your own worked examples.

  • Upload chapter PDFs, slides, notes or photos of pages and get cards from your own material.
  • Review with spaced repetition so weak topics come back before a test.
  • Check and edit every card before studying so the wording matches your method.
  • Export to Anki, PDF or CSV on Plus if you want cards outside the browser.
Example GCSE maths flashcards
Solve 3x + 7 = 22.x = 5. Subtract 7 from both sides to get 3x = 15, then divide both sides by 3.
What is the formula for the area of a trapezium?½(a + b) × h, where a and b are the parallel sides and h is the perpendicular height, because the shape is half a parallelogram.
Expand and simplify (x + 4)(x − 2).x² + 2x − 8. Multiply each term in the first bracket by each term in the second, then collect like terms.
What is the gradient of the line through (1, 2) and (3, 8)?3. The change in y is 6 and the change in x is 2, so 6 ÷ 2 = 3.
Write 0.00047 in standard form.4.7 × 10⁻⁴. Moving the decimal point four places to the right gives 4.7, so the power of ten is −4.

Built from your pages

Upload a PDF, slides, a Word file, plain notes or photos of a revision guide. Text recognition reads the pages so the cards cover what your class actually studies.

Spaced repetition

Cards you find hard come back sooner, and easy ones come back later. Reviews are scheduled automatically, so you spend time on the topics that need it.

Quizzes and mind maps too

Turn the same material into multiple choice, true or false and short answer quizzes with explanations, or a mind map of how topics connect.

How it works

Upload your material

Add the pages you are revising, such as a chapter PDF, a slide deck or photos of worked examples.

Generate your flashcards

DeckOwl creates question and answer cards from the content. Check them and edit anything that needs changing.

Review on a schedule

Study in the browser on the free plan, or export to Anki, PDF or CSV on Plus, and let spaced repetition set your review days.

Good maths cards ask you to do something, not just recall a label. Write the front as a short problem or a step to complete, then try the working before you flip the card. Over several sessions, spaced repetition brings back the methods you keep missing.

Start with one chapter. Generate the cards, remove any that repeat each other, and add your own cards for tricky methods. Then review a little most days rather than cramming the night before a test.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for GCSE maths?

Make one card for each formula, method step or definition in a topic. A single topic such as algebra often needs a few dozen cards, and you can add more as you cover new material.

How do I use flashcards to revise maths rather than just memorise facts?

Write the front as a problem, such as 'Solve 3x + 7 = 22', rather than a definition. Try the working out on paper before flipping the card, and mark whether you got the method right.

Can I export my flashcards to Anki or PDF?

Yes, but exporting to Anki, PDF, DOCX and CSV is a Plus feature at $39/year or $7.99/month. The free plan gives 3 generations per month with studying in the browser.

Do I need a credit card to try DeckOwl?

No, you can start on the free plan without a credit card. Students get 40% off with a school email.
