Hi Makhan9!

I’d be happy to help you with your MCAT AnKing deck setup question. However, I notice that your post doesn’t include any screenshots or details about your current setup. Without seeing how your deck is currently organized, it’s difficult to determine if it’s set up correctly.

Based on the official AnKing MCAT deck resources, here’s what a correct setup should include:

What to expect in a proper AnKing MCAT deck setup:

  1. The main deck with tag #AK_MCAT_v2 containing all the cards
  2. Cards organized primarily by tags rather than subdecks by default
  3. Tags following various organization systems:
    • #KhanAcademy tags (organized by subject)
    • #Kaplan tags (organized by chapters)
    • Other resource tags like #Pixorize and #UWorld (if available)

To verify your setup:

  1. In Anki, go to Browse
  2. Check the left sidebar under Tags
  3. Look for #AK_MCAT_v2 and expand it to see all subtags
  4. Verify that cards appear under the appropriate tags

If you’re looking to organize cards into subdecks (which many users prefer), you’ll need to create them manually based on tags, as mentioned by another user in the MCAT Wiki:

“You can create subdecks and move the cards based on the tags. For example, I am making subdecks based on the khan academy organization, so I am going to browse, decks, toolbar to find change deck, and add ::new subdeck to the end of each deck.”

Could you share a screenshot of your current setup so I can provide more specific guidance? This would include your deck list and tag structure in the browser.

Looking at your screenshot, your MCAT AnKing deck setup looks mostly correct! Let me explain what I’m seeing and provide some suggestions:

Looking at your screenshot, your MCAT AnKing deck setup looks correct! Here’s why:

The structure you’re showing matches the expected organization of the AnKing MCAT deck:

  1. You have the main AnKing MCAT deck at the top level
  2. You’ve created your own subdecks to organize the content by subject (Biology, Chemistry, etc.)
  3. Your subdeck organization follows a logical structure based on MCAT content areas

This is actually a great way to organize the deck. As mentioned in the AnKing MCAT Deck Wiki, the default AnKing MCAT deck doesn’t come with subdecks - instead, it uses tags for organization. Creating subdecks manually (as you’ve done) is a recommended approach for many users.

One thing to verify (which I can’t see from the screenshot):

  • Make sure all cards have the #AK_MCAT_v2 tag in the browser
  • Check that the tags structure is intact (Kaplan chapter tags, Khan Academy tags, etc.)

If you want to ensure all cards are properly tagged, you can:

  1. Go to Browse
  2. Click on Tags in the left sidebar
  3. Look for #AK_MCAT_v2 and expand it to see all subtags
  4. Verify cards appear under appropriate tags

Overall, your organization looks excellent! The way you’ve structured your subdecks will help you study in a more organized manner by subject area, which many MCAT students find helpful.
