AnKing MCAT Deck Update #19 (April 11th - May 11th)
Summertime around the corner and application cycles bloom anew; another crop of future doctors and MCAT hopefuls coming through 
Deck Updates
The MCAT keeps coming, and we keep going 
71,000+ note updates!
33,313 total subscribers!
Still going the only MCAT deck being updated constantly, averaging numerous updates per day for years now and always upward. The better the deck becomes, the more MCAT-hopefuls become medschool-actuals and maybe we’ll make the world a slightly better place 
And, without further ado:
Projects
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)
- Tagging via UWorld question bank and UWorld textbooks (the only deck to have both!).
- Tagging via AAMC content outlines (more info below).
- Tagging via Informing Future Doctors High-Yield tags (https://www.informingfuturedoctors.com/).
- Lots and lots of new images (a smitter-smattering of examples below) to make your studying even better.
Khan Academy tag update:
We’re looking at updating, and upgrading, the Khan Academy tags just so they’re as picture-perfect as can be. In honor of the Pankow deck, and the P/S section as a whole, we want those tags to be pristine so everyone gets a chance at that 132 goodness.
We hope to start on this in earnest in the coming weeks, and will keep y’all updated and posted here as the works gets underway and near completion.
Illustration Projects
We’ve added more illustrations, diagrams, and annotated images than you can shake 27-52 sticks at!!
Thanks to @ahmedafifi, @Sameem, @beejumm others.
If you’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 
Introducing the AnKing Lab Values Deck
We’re excited to introduce the free and official AnKing Lab values deck!
If you’re itching to do some pre-studying before medical school and want to get your feet wet with making sense of lab numbers and the like, we proudly bring you the AnKing lab values deck. 
It may not bump your MCAT score all that much, but if you’re stuck in the hinterlands awaiting the application cycle and want to get a head start on all those electrolytes and various lab numbers, this deck will help you improve your references and pace on values that no future doctor will ever (fully) escape, so you’re not left guessing whether a sodium of 132 is low, normal, or high
This project started as a personal initiative by one of our head maintainers, Ahmed Khudair, to create an AnKing-style lab values deck and has since grown into a collaborative effort by the maintainer team, with custom hand-made illustrations by the lovely Mujeeb Mohammed 
.
This deck is completely free and will remain free forever on AnkiHub.

Unsuspend cards based on UWorld QID’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 you’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+ )
