say im doing a question and i get it wrong, I go to anki and browse for associated card. How should i review them? Not reschedule b/c that deletes all the review history.
I am new anki user , I figure out to upgrade to v12 ,what fields should I protect so I dont miss any resourse?
I downloaded AnKing (paid subscription) as well as the Amboss Anki addon. I’m using Bootcamp as my primary resource to study for my current block which just started, heme/onc and renal.
I’m slowly unsuspending cards from each Bootcamp video as I go through, I’m not even halfway through all the videos I’d need to watch, and my unsuspended card count is already at 795. I was just wondering if that’s normal or reasonable? I originally had my Anki set to 30 new cards a day but I’m quickly seeing I will need to ramp that up. I just also don’t want to do overkill or overwhelm myself with Anki as I also want time for practice q’s from Amboss
My block is about 6 weeks long, not including finals week
Should I change to 100 new cards a day? Is that too much?
P/F exams. We have an in house one and an nbme one, though in house is weighted heavier
I'm 3 months into M1 and we are in our foundations blocks (anatomy/biochem/genetics those kinds of things). I go to a school with annoying in-house exams and H/P/F with internal ranking. I was therefore doing just in house material, using our lecture slides, using a mix of upperclassman anki decks and self made ones to get material down really well for our exams then just move on to the next block and abandon those decks.
I know it's later than ideal but I decided I want to commit to Anking. I'm not sure where to start though... should I just start fresh and unsuspend Anking cards that correspond to my current lectures moving forward and get back to the stuff I missed later? Should I try and go back and unsuspend cards little by little from the past 3 months of foundations stuff?
I am not new to anki and have dabbled in a couple topics in Anking before just to look at it but nothing sustained. Any advice is much appreciated.
I study from first aid with the help of b&b videos and Anking using the first aid tag.
I heard there are really important and useful resources for step 1 like sketchy for micro and pharma. If I decide to use sketchy for them should I also unsuspend their tags from the anki deck or is the first aid tag enough?
Also, what other resources would you say are most useful and would make it easier to study?
I am appearing for FCPS part 01 exam, can someone guide me from where can I get anki cards for studying?
I will be extremely grateful 🙏🏽
Im using Nintendo Joy-Con as a gamepad and I’ve been searching for a way to ease the “toggle all” hustle on me as i don’t feel it’s convenient to click it on each card while im already using a Joy-Con
I recently subscribed to ankihub and i kept using v12 deck without noticing that the images were gone, i thought it might be subscription based but when i opened the 100 concepts deck i knew something was off. So i checked the media base and a lot of the files were missing. Where do i find them? and ankihub support should provide me those images without sending me through maze of links. And ps don't blame it on anki. Just give me the images.
Hello:
When I open anki it keeps giving me this message. I have hit "yes" three times now and opened anki to the same message each time. It also keeps asking me if I wanted to download notes from ankihub or upload notes to ankihub. I also believe I have lost all the fine tuning personal edits I have made to the cards. If anyone knows how to fix this and how I can get those edits back. Thank you so much!
I just started anking and the deck I’m doing has about 80 cards but whenever I do each card it just disappears and doesn’t appear as the red number at the bottom
What does this mean? Is this a good thing? And how do I make it return?
Every night after reviewing my current module's content I do a large set of review cards from previous courses to keep my mind fresh up until I take STEP later this school year. I'm getting ready to do my review cards for today and anki is saying I didn't do the ones from last night. I've never had this problem before. I did them on my desktop and now my desktop and other devices has yesterday's cards as due. Any ideas on how to fix this? I don't want to use a backup from last night because I did another set of cards earlier today and do not want to do them again.
Hello Anking users I want to hear your thoughts on behavioral science Anking cards. Do they cover the topic enough? How should I approach them?
I wanted to subscribe to the monthly plan of ankihub, but it's only letting me subscribe to the lifetime plan
My friend set up my anki for step 1 to do all of the nbme related cards. I need to create a similar deck for step 2. How do I do it?
Hello, I'm a Year 1 student. I was researching about ways to incorporate the AnKing deck into my daily routine when I encountered the Wildcard Workflow in the sidebar.
In the individual daily workflow, the 4th step is to annotate qbank questions into anki:
"Annotate the said questions into Anki (1-2 per question or more if absolutely necessary). Add any cards to re-reviews that you have already seen before doing the questions to review again."
Can someone explain what this means? Do I make new cards based on the questions? Do I add a screenshot of the question in the extra field of existing cards?
Thanks for the help.
I have two decks: one for my current rotation (0.87) and another for my previous rotations (0.85). At the end of the day, I have too many cards—700. Please help me reduce them with any advice.
Hello! My school tells us to download v11 anki, protect the First Aid cards (since v12 doesn't have pictures) and then upgrade to v12. My problem is, I can't figure out how to "protect" cards. I've seen other posts that say to use AnkiHub to protect cards, but my v11 deck is not through ankihub...I would need to protect them within anki on my desktop. Any pointers on what I can do?
I deleted a sub deck because I just wanted to have one main deck and it turns out if you do that you just delete all the cards inside lol.
Thankfully I've only been using anki for a day so I didn't lose much but I want to know how to keep consistently updating backups, where these backups are stored and how to restore these backups into anki.
Hi all,
I'm trying to log-in into Ankihub on my Anki and it says there's an error, tried to go to their website and it says 502 bad gateway.
Ankihub is down for maintenance? Just wanna make sure I'm not the only one facing this issue.
EDIT: All good now.
My understanding is dead space is supposed to be ventilation without perfusion, such as in the trachea where there is lots of oxygen but no blood flow to carry it away.
Isn't poor ventilation receiving blood flow supposed to be shunting?
The answer to this card should be shunting instead of dead space isn't it? Or I am tripping?

I only had ~250 reviews per day on FSRS. I only have step 2 V12 tag unsuspended + bugs and drugs subdecks from the step 1 deck. I suspended the rest of Step 1 v11/v12 and step 2 v11 tags. It seems most of the review cards are step 1 stuff that I did before taking that test and then suspended (except bugs and drugs) when I started studying for step 2. Am I doing something wrong or does v12 just add a ton of step 1 stuff into the step 2 tag?
I'm a radiology resident and create my own cards. Last week I learnt about FSRS and switched over from SM2 (I chose to reschedule my cards). I noticed that my workload is probably 1/2 of what it used to be, and some cards are getting big intervals, is this normal? Can I trust the algorithm?
been using FSRS since day 1, so I think the key stat is to look at stability? or is it retrievability?
Basically I want to gather all cards that I'm about to forget before an exam and review them again, though I'm not sure if that's even best practice.
Hi guys, can I get some help finding the best deck for MRCS and which resources to use along with it (with QBank if possible)?
I would appreciate suggestions for both paid and free resources.
Thanks in advance.

I have 24k unsuspended from anking. The daily card burden is not decreasing and staying around 500-600 and its honestly getting exhausting doing this and other decks from school stuff. Whats happening, I think I did some fucky things with the intervals but I stopped doing that at end of summer and put a new set date after summer and it doesn't consider review history before that (my understanding of it). Anything I can do? Retention is set at 90%. Or do I just suffer through it. Just getting really exhausting and getting tired of seeing the same amount of cards each day. The heatmap shows my card amount decreasaing over time but its not happening, I just want a realistic simulation of what I can expect for future
Hi! I have been using V11. I edited some cards in the Text area (font, rewording) and sometimes added images in the Extra part too. I’ve also created new cards and just tagged them under a missed UWorld tag (they’re not in a separate deck or subdeck I guess?). Just got the Ankihub subscription.
What happens when I update to V12? Will I lose my new cards and/or the changes made to existing ones? What’s the best way? Also, do I lose the FA pictures?
I tried searching but couldn’t find exactly what I was looking for/am still confused. Any help is much appreciated thank you!
