How to build a PMP deck from your own notes

Good PMP prep flashcards start with the material you already study from, such as your PMBOK chapters, course slides or a handout from a training class. DeckOwl reads those files, including photos of pages, and turns key terms, formulas and process inputs into cards you can review on a spacing schedule.

  • Earned value formulas such as CPI and SPI, with the meaning of each result
  • Inputs, tools and outputs for key processes in each process group
  • Situational terms like stakeholder engagement, servant leadership and change requests
  • Differences between easily confused items such as a risk register and an issue log
Example PMP prep flashcards
What is the difference between a risk register and an issue log?A risk register tracks potential future events, while an issue log tracks problems that have already occurred and need action.
What does the CPI measure in earned value management?Cost performance index, calculated as earned value divided by actual cost. A value below 1.0 means the project is over budget so far.
Which process group contains the Develop Project Charter process?Initiating, the first process group, where the project is formally authorized and the project manager is named.
What is the best long-term approach to most conflicts on a project?Collaborating, because it addresses the underlying issue and keeps the needs of all parties in view.
What is a change request in the PMP context?A formal proposal to modify a project, which must go through integrated change control before any approved change is made.

Built from your sources

Upload PDFs, PPTX slides, DOCX files, plain notes or photos of pages. Each card comes from the material in front of you.

Spaced repetition

Cards return on a schedule that shifts with how well you recall them, so time goes to the terms that still need work.

Study anywhere

Review in your browser on the free plan. Paid plans add PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export for printing or moving decks.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a PMBOK chapter, course slides, a boot camp handout or photos of your notes.

Generate the deck

DeckOwl pulls out key terms, process inputs and outputs, and formulas into flashcards.

Review on schedule

Study the cards in the browser and let spaced repetition bring back the ones you miss.

The exam tests application as well as recall, so the strongest cards ask you to pick the right response in a situation rather than repeat a definition. Keep the deck tied to each domain so gaps in people, process or business environment show up early.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for PMP prep?

There is no fixed number that works for everyone, so build a set for each exam domain and let the length of your material decide the size. You can edit or delete cards after DeckOwl generates them.

What should PMP flashcards cover?

Focus on formulas, process inputs and outputs, and terms you must recognize in scenario questions. Cards work best when the question asks you to apply a concept, not only define it.

Can I export PMP flashcards to Anki?

Yes, but Anki export is a paid feature. It is included in the Plus plan at $99.90/year or $9.99/month, along with PDF, DOCX and CSV export.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, and you do not need a credit card to start.
