Why custom PMP flashcards beat a printable PDF

PMP flashcards are most useful when they match the course or study guide you are actually working through. A generic printable covers common formulas, but it cannot reflect your instructor's terminology or the gaps that show up in your own practice questions.

  • Flashcards built from your own PMP prep PDF, not a generic template
  • Spaced repetition on the process groups, knowledge areas, and earned value formulas you keep missing
  • Photos of printed pages are read with text recognition, so you can start from a book page you already have
  • Free plan to start with no credit card, and Plus adds PDF export for a printable copy
Example PMP flashcards to study
What are the five process groups in the PMBOK Guide?Initiating, planning, executing, monitoring and controlling, and closing.
What does the cost performance index (CPI) measure?Cost efficiency: earned value divided by actual cost (EV/AC). A value below 1 means the project is over budget.
How is the schedule performance index (SPI) calculated?Earned value divided by planned value (EV/PV). A value below 1 means the project is behind schedule.
What is a RACI chart?A responsibility matrix that shows who is Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, and Informed for each task.
What is the difference between a risk and an issue?A risk is an uncertain future event, while an issue is a problem that has already occurred and needs a response now.

Your material, your deck

Upload PDFs, PPTX slides, DOCX files, notes, or photos of printed pages and get cards built from the content you are studying.

Spaced repetition

Cards resurface on a spacing schedule, so you review the terms you miss more often and spend less time on what you already know.

Quizzes and mind maps

Turn the same material into multiple choice, true/false, or short answer quizzes with explanations, plus mind maps of process groups and knowledge areas.

How it works

Upload your prep material

Add a PDF, slide deck, DOCX file, or photos of your course notes.

Review the generated cards

Check each question and answer, edit anything unclear, and remove cards you do not need.

Study on a schedule

Work through the deck in short daily sessions and let spaced repetition decide which cards come back next.

Upload your own PDF, slides, or notes and DeckOwl generates flashcards from that text. You can study in the browser on the free plan, and Plus adds PDF, DOCX, Anki, and CSV export if you want a printable copy of your custom deck.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for the PMP exam?

There is no fixed number that works for everyone. Focus on the terms and formulas you keep missing, starting with process groups, knowledge areas, and earned value calculations, then add cards from your own practice questions.

How should I study PMP formulas with flashcards?

Put the formula on the front and its plain-language meaning on the back, then practice working one example by hand. Review in short daily sessions so the formulas stick.

Can I export my PMP flashcards to PDF?

Yes, but PDF export is a paid feature. It is included with Plus at $99.90/year or $9.99/month, while the free plan lets you study in the browser without exports.

Does DeckOwl work with scanned notes or photos?

Yes. Photos of pages are read with text recognition, and PPTX, DOCX, and plain text files also work as inputs.
