Why generate your own Rancho set

Downloadable Rancho flashcards PDF sets are generic, but your course uses its own wording, examples, and emphasis on each level. A card made from your own material tests exactly what you were taught.

  • Cards come from the lecture slides, handout, or notes you upload.
  • Spaced repetition brings back the cards you struggle with most.
  • Images of pages are read with text recognition, so a photo works.
  • PDF, DOCX, Anki, and CSV exports are available on the Plus plan.
Example Rancho Los Amigos flashcards
Rancho Level INo Response: no observable response to stimuli, though the level is scored by repeated observation over time.
Rancho Level IIGeneralized Response: inconsistent, nonpurposeful responses that do not depend on the specific stimulus.
Rancho Level IIILocalized Response: specific but inconsistent, delayed responses to stimuli, such as turning toward a familiar voice.
Rancho Level IVConfused-Agitated: heightened activity and agitation with confusion and disorientation, which can be unsafe without supervision.
Rancho Level VIConfused-Appropriate: follows simple directions and shows goal-directed behavior with cues, though memory and awareness remain impaired.

Built from your material

Upload PDFs, DOCX or PPTX files, plain notes, or photos of pages. Cards follow the wording your course uses.

Spaced repetition

Cards you miss come back sooner, so the Rancho levels stick before your exam or clinical rotation.

How it works

Upload your notes

Add a PDF, slide deck, text file, or a photo of your handout.

Review the generated cards

Check the terms and answers against your lecture and edit anything that does not match.

Study or export

Study in the browser with spaced repetition, or export a PDF on Plus.

The Rancho Los Amigos scale describes recovery in eight levels, from no response to purposeful, appropriate behavior. Learning the defining behaviors and the differences between neighboring levels is what most exam questions target.

Start by uploading the slides or notes you already have. Then check each generated card against the source and add cards for any cues or examples your instructor stressed.

Frequently asked questions

What are the Rancho Los Amigos levels of cognitive functioning?

They are an eight-level scale, from Level I (No Response) to Level VIII (Purposeful, Appropriate), used to describe a person's cognitive recovery after brain injury. Your course materials will define each level in more detail.

How many flashcards should I make for the Rancho levels?

Start with one card per level plus one card for each defining behavior your instructor lists. Add more cards for the differences between neighboring levels, since those are often where questions get tricky.

Can I download my flashcards as a PDF?

Yes, PDF export is included on the Plus plan, which costs $39/year or $7.99/month. The free plan lets you study in the browser but does not include exports.

Is there a free plan?

Yes, the free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study. No credit card is needed to start, and students can get 40% off with a school email.
