Revising Edexcel IGCSE physics with flashcards you generate

Printable IGCSE physics sets rarely match the order your teacher covers the course, so the most useful Edexcel IGCSE physics flashcards come from your own material. Upload a PDF of your textbook chapter, a DOCX of revision notes, a PPTX of lesson slides or photos of whiteboard worked examples, and the generator turns them into cards you can review.

  • Definitions and key terms from each topic
  • Equations with units and worked examples
  • Core practical methods and what each one measures
  • Cards built from slides, notes and photographed textbook pages
Example Edexcel IGCSE physics flashcards
What is the unit of electrical resistance?The ohm (Ω), because resistance equals voltage divided by current.
State the equation linking power, voltage and current.Power = voltage × current (P = VI), which gives power in watts when voltage is in volts and current is in amps.
What is the difference between scalar and vector quantities?Scalars have magnitude only, such as speed or mass; vectors have both magnitude and direction, such as velocity or force.
What does the specific heat capacity of a substance measure?The energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 kg of the substance by 1 °C.
What does the law of reflection state?The angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection, with both angles measured from the normal.

Cards from your own material

Upload PDFs, DOCX files, PPTX slides, plain notes or photos of pages, and get flashcards built from what your class actually covered.

Spaced repetition

Cards you find hard come back more often, so definitions, equations and units stick before the exam.

Study anywhere

Review your deck in the browser. Plus adds PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export if you want to study elsewhere.

How it works

Upload your physics material

Add a chapter PDF, revision notes, lesson slides or photos of worked examples.

Review the generated cards

Check the definitions, equations and units, and edit any card that needs a clearer answer.

Study in short sessions

Work through the deck regularly, and let spaced repetition bring back the cards you miss.

Physics cards work best when each one tests a single idea. Keep definitions, equations with their units, and the steps of core practicals such as investigating resistance on separate cards, and include the unit in every answer so you practice it each time. Spaced repetition then brings back the cards you find hardest more often, which helps with topics like forces and electricity that build on earlier ideas.

Review your deck in short sessions across the weeks before each paper rather than one long cram session. Re-read any card you got wrong, check it against your class notes, and add cards for new misconceptions as they appear.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for Edexcel IGCSE physics?

Focus on one idea per card rather than hitting a fixed total. Definitions, equations and units from a single chapter usually make up most of a useful deck.

What should IGCSE physics flashcards cover?

Cover key definitions, equations with their units, and the methods used in core practicals. Checking your cards against past paper command words like describe and explain can also help you match the answer style.

Can I export these flashcards to Anki?

Yes, but export is a paid feature. The free plan lets you study in the browser, while Plus includes PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export.

Is spaced repetition included in the free plan?

Spaced repetition is part of the Plus plan, which costs $39 per year or $7.99 per month. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study, and no credit card is needed to start.
