Medical School Terminology: Anki

Anki - virtual flashcards; saves time; saves trees; and great for identifying pictures.

Almost all the students use this program and is a big help to them when studying. Instead of spending money on thousands and thousands of notecards for each test, having them scattered around the house, trying to keep track of them all, and spending your precious time making each of them, you can essentially make them on the computer. It is useful for when they can copy and paste a picture or slide on to the flashcard and can identify images. You can keep track of which ones you are still unsure of and it will appear again at the end. You can save all of the flashcards and reuse them to study for the board exam.

Something the students can't live without!
