hello! i have been using MileDown for the last couple months and am testing 2/18 (added test date bc of registration issues). is it worth it to add aidan's deck at this point? should i just add specific sections? or none at all? sorry i know this question has been asked so many times lol im just getting lost in all the posts :(
FYI Anki 24.11 is out now and includes an FSRS simulator on the deck settings.
If I am short on time which deck should I use? I have Anking but should I switch to milesdown? I have been using Anking mainly for their behavioral.
I currently have Anking but wanted to add milesdown just because I am on a time crunch to get through cards faster. Everytime I try to add milesdown it doesn't integrate into the my deck, is this because the cards are duplicate or mirroring the Anking deck? My approach was to use Anking mainly for the behavioral section and the rest of my anki review through Milesdown.
Ik this is heavily debated but I'm torn apart bw using jacksparrow or aiden anki for a april exam alongside kaplan books. I wanna start asap to give myself a good 5-6 months
is the new ankihub deck good or the aiden deck the best? also what are the best settings to use on anki for the ankihub or aiden deck
Can I do jack sparrow in one month if all I do is Anki and the section off UEarth questions on lighter days or do Uearth after the one month of Anki (and continue Anki alongside uearth)? Followed by AAMC after Uworld?
Mods can take this down if this isn’t allowed but trying to start a thread for noticed errors in the Aidan deck. I’ll start with the Maslow’s hierarchy card of love and belonging and self esteem being the 2 psychological* not physiological needs
Did anyone out there tabulate any errors they found while studying Aiden MCAT Anki deck?

Hi there does someone has the aidans deck for download?
Can anyone show me how I can lower the interval for Good and Easy cards? My test is in January so id like to see these cards again before test day.
I’ve tried Google and some YouTube videos but they didn’t really work :/
i downloaded the ankipro app and searched up milesdown it has 2.8k cards. is it legit? and is it enough to study or do i need the full milesdown deck if so how do i download it? thanks
What is the most comprehensive and useful Anki deck for the MCAT? I have the Miles Down Anki deck, but for some reason, mine is not comprehensive, quite short, and misses a lot of concepts. Is there an Anki deck that is more comprehensive and aligns well with the Kaplan book? If so, could you please provide the link?
Hi all,
I've been using the UWorld books for my content review and the MileDown deck for maintenance. I know of MileDown versions organized by Kaplan chapter or Khan Academy topic, but is there one organized by UWorld chapter? Thanks!
For those who used jack sparrow how many new, review and total cards did you have per day. And how long did anki take you everyday to complete. Thanks
Hey guys! I set my new cards limit to 25 when I started studying, using the MD deck. However, each section that I un-suspend contains more than 25 cards. My reviews are set to 9999, but it feels like I am unlocking cards too slow. It seems like my Anki is revealing new cards sequentially as I’ve unlocked them. For example, I am a couple days removed from studying Memory and Cognition, but the only new cards that I am getting are still from memory and cognition. I am starting to increase my new card limit to 50-100.
I would rather have it that Anki gives me new cards in random order so that I don’t go thru stretches where I am studying the same content because Anki is giving me the cards in the order that I unlocked it. Is the solution to increase my new card limit or is there a better way?

Hi guys! I'm thinking about writing my dissertation on the different resources students use to prepare for the MCAT and their effectiveness. I can't find specific numbers on how many students use the Anking deck, so you'd do me the biggest favor by filling out this quick poll. Thanks so much!!!
Sou novo no Anki, e gostaria de saber como melhorar a experiência. Tem alguma coisa que vocês recomendam? Tem algo que vocês não gostam?
Was reviewing this card and it was confusing in the sense that I thought PTH was mainly controlling phosphate (via PCT) and calcium levels, not really potassium. Can anyone shed light on this? I tried searching it up but there wasn't really a clear answer.
I didn't see it in the MileDown correction thread either unless I'm blind.
If I get a knock-off joy con from amazon will it work with Anki? Has anyone tried that?
Hey everyone!
Does anyone who currently uses the Aidan deck know if it coincides with the Kaplan books?
I’m on the fence about whether to get the Kaplan/U world books, but I definitely would consider getting the Kaplan books if the Aidan deck has cards of content in chapters that go along with the content in the book.
Thanks guys!
I am trying to download Aidan’s Anki deck on my iPad Anki app and every time I try to import it says the file size is too big. I looked in their library and it isn’t there either. Is it possible to find subdecks for Aidan’s deck or do I just need to use a computer?
Quick question. If you have some Anki cards left over to do at night, is there any harm in letting them roll over into the next day's session, or should I review ahead and always get them done that same night?
Sorry if this doesn't make sense lol
