Why build your own PMP flashcard set

Many PMP candidates look for Mometrix PMP flashcards when they want a ready-made deck, but a pre-made set cannot reflect the exact terms in your course or the topics you keep missing. DeckOwl does not include Mometrix content or printable decks. It builds a custom set from material you already have.

  • Flashcards generated from your own PMP notes, slides or PDFs
  • Spaced repetition that brings back the cards you miss
  • Quizzes with explanations to test scenario reasoning
  • Anki, PDF, DOCX and CSV export on the Plus plan
Example PMP flashcards on project management basics
What are the three constraints of the triple constraint model?Scope, schedule and cost. A change to one usually affects the others, and quality is often treated as a fourth constraint.
What is a project charter?A document issued by the sponsor that formally authorizes a project and gives the project manager authority to apply organizational resources.
What is the difference between a risk and an issue?A risk is an uncertain event that may happen in the future, while an issue is a known problem that is already affecting the project.
What does a RACI chart show?The Responsible, Accountable, Consulted and Informed role for each deliverable or activity, so everyone knows who does the work and who signs off.
What does earned value management measure?Project performance by comparing planned value, earned value and actual cost, which is used to calculate schedule and cost variance and forecast outcomes.
Generate the full set

Works from your material

Upload PDFs, DOCX or PPTX files, plain notes, or photos of pages. Text recognition reads the images so you can study from what you already have.

Spaced repetition built in

Cards come back on a schedule that favors the ones you find hard, so review time goes to the terms you are most likely to forget.

Export when you need it

Free plan users study in the browser. Plus adds PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export for studying on other tools or printing a set.

How it works

Upload your PMP material

Add a PDF, slides, a DOCX file, typed notes or a photo of a page. Only use files you have the right to use.

Generate and review the cards

DeckOwl creates flashcards from the content. Read through them and remove or edit any that do not match your course.

Study on a spaced schedule

Review each day and let the schedule bring back the cards you miss. Add quizzes or mind maps when you want a different view.

A personal deck tends to be more useful because you choose the source. Start with the chapters or process group notes you are working through, generate cards, and then cut any card that repeats or misses the point. Smaller, accurate sets are easier to review every day than a large deck you did not write.

Spaced repetition keeps the material in rotation after you first learn it. Pair the flashcards with practice quizzes that include explanations so you can check reasoning as well as recall.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I study for the PMP exam?

There is no fixed number, but a deck of a few hundred cards covering process groups, knowledge areas and formulas is a practical size. Spend more review time on the cards you miss than on the ones you already know.

What PMP topics work best as flashcards?

Short, testable items work best, such as definitions like project charter, formulas like earned value, and process inputs and outputs. Keep long scenario questions for practice quizzes instead.

Can I use DeckOwl for free?

Yes. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, but exports are paid features.

Can I export my PMP flashcards to Anki?

Yes, export to Anki is included in the Plus plan at $39/year or $7.99/month, along with PDF, DOCX and CSV export.
