:crown: AnKing MCAT Deck Update #18 (March 10th - April 11th)


Springtime comes and another testing season blooms before us :blossom:



:white_check_mark: Deck Updates

The MCAT keeps coming, and we keep going :saluting_face:

:tada: 70,000+ note updates!

:woman_health_worker: :man_health_worker: 32,375 total subscribers!


Still going strong as the only MCAT deck being updated constantly, and averaging numerous updates per day for multiple years now and ever onward. The better the deck gets, the more medschool-hopefuls become medschool-actuals (and future doctors), and many hands they make light work :flexed_biceps:


And, without further ado:


:construction: Projects



:firefighter: Overview:

The team pushed pretty hard over the last couple of years to bring a lot of big updates, and listing here a quick recap some of the Greatest Hits over the last many months:

  • More than 70,000+ total updates (and counting)!
  • We added a bunch of new cards to make a great deck even more greater, and to help push more of those 520-hopefuls onward into medical school (many of them to better overlap with the UWorld textbooks specifically):stethoscope:
  • Tagging via UWorld question bank and UWorld textbooks (the only deck to have both!). :books:
  • Tagging via AAMC content outlines (more info below). :x_ray:
  • Tagging via Informing Future Doctors High-Yield tags (https://www.informingfuturedoctors.com/). :lab_coat:
  • Lots and lots of new images (a smattering of examples below) to make your studying even better. :camera_with_flash:

:art: Illustration Projects

Weโ€™ve added more illustrations, diagrams, and annotated images than you can shake 24-57 sticks at!!

Thanks to @ahmedafifi, @Sameem, @beejumm others.

If youโ€™re interested in helping make great illustrations or diagrams or annotated images for the MCAT deck (like the ones you see below), please send an email to brian@ankihub.net.

We neeeeeeed new images, and all help is welcome :mending_heart:




:crown: Unsuspend cards based on UWorld QIDโ€™s:

You can unsuspend cards in the deck based on questions as you go along. Using the UWorld to Anki search add-on you can bring up cards related to specific questions youโ€™ve done, making your studying that much more efficient and effective.

(as an aside: this feature alone is worth its weight in gold and played a large part in more than one of our maintainers going 520+ :flexed_biceps:)



:crown: AnkiHub Premium Updates & New Features

We have various AnkiHub premium updates and new features that can help you get more out of your study sessions, and pump up those scores


:robot: AnkiHub SmartSearch:

Using a resource that isnโ€™t tagged in the MCAT deck? Trying to follow along with overlapping material from a course or tutoring?

SmartSearch allows you to find material in the deck that corresponds with your powerpoints, PDFโ€™s, even plain text. Give it a whirl, and see if it lends a little momentum to your MCAT preparations: AI Smart Search - Find Flashcards with Your Files


:robot: New AnkiHub Chatbot Prompts (Generate a Question & Explain Like Iโ€™m Five)

Generate a Practice Question:

  • Ever wanted to test yourself on a concept and havenโ€™t felt ready to test the waters on UWorld or use up your AAMC questions? Well boy do we have the thing for you! You can ask the AnkiHub AI bot questions to get your reps in and get warmed up, and even to generate questions based on anything under the Sun!

Give it a whirl and please let us know how handy you find it; excited to hear what yโ€™all think. :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:


You can see a demo of what it looks like live, here: AnkiHub AI Bot โ€” Screen Studio



:crown: Suggest a Change to AnkiHub

See a detail you think can be improved? Find something you think could be better-phrased, or have an idea for a way to contribute? All AnkiHub users are always welcome, and encouraged, to suggest changes to the deck: How to suggest a change to AnkiHub

All suggested changes are looked over by our team of deck maintainers, and many hands always make light work! Few things more poetic than lending a hand to the resource that helps us all become future doctors :stethoscope:





:school: AAMC Content Outline Tags

We got the entire deck tagged via the AAMC content outline categories, which offers tagging via the AAMC foundational concepts, skills, and topics independent of third-party resources.

Please let us know what you think!
