Example A-Level sociology flashcards on social stratification
What is social stratification?The structured ranking of groups in society by factors such as class, gender or ethnicity, which gives them unequal access to resources.
What does Bourdieu mean by cultural capital?Knowledge, tastes and skills linked to social class that can help some groups succeed in education, because they match what schools reward.
What is Durkheim's concept of anomie?A state of normlessness that occurs when social norms break down, often during rapid social change, leading to uncertainty and deviance.
What is a self-fulfilling prophecy in labelling theory?When a label, such as low ability, shapes how people treat someone so that they begin to behave in line with that label.

Built from your material

Flashcards come from the PDFs, slides, Word files or photos you upload, so they cover the topics your teacher actually taught.

Spaced repetition

Cards you struggle with return more often, which helps key terms and theorists stick before exams.

Study anywhere

Practise in the browser on the free plan, or export to Anki, PDF or CSV on Plus.

How it works

Upload your notes

Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text file or a photo of a page.

Review the cards

Check the generated flashcards and delete any that do not match your specification.

Study on a schedule

Spaced repetition shows each card again at the right time, so you revise what you are about to forget.

Upload a PDF, PowerPoint slides, a Word document, typed notes or a photo of a printed page. The text is read and turned into flashcards, and spaced repetition schedules reviews so concepts like social stratification or labelling theory come back before you forget them.

Sociology rewards precise definitions and named theorists, so check each card against your course text before exam day and remove anything that does not match your specification.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for A-Level sociology?

Aim for roughly 10 to 15 cards per topic, such as families or education, so each card tests one idea. Smaller sets are easier to review daily and keep the spaced repetition schedule useful.

What makes a good sociology flashcard?

Put one term, theorist or concept on the front and a short definition with an example on the back. Avoid cards that test several ideas at once, because they are harder to mark yourself against.

Can I export my flashcards to Anki?

Yes, exports to Anki, PDF, DOCX and CSV are part of the Plus plan at $99.90/year or $9.99/month. The free plan lets you study the cards in the browser without exports.

Is there a free plan, and do students get a discount?

The free plan includes 3 generations per month and no credit card is needed to start. Students get 40% off with a school email address.
