:rotating_light: IMPORTANT Notes:

Summary
  • If you already had v11 (or earlier versions), you will have some leftover notes that didn’t get v12 tags. These are notes we added the !DELETE tag too and aren’t needed. You can delete all of them. Click the tag, (if you have notes you’ve unsuspended from that set that you want to keep, type is:suspended in the search bar after the tag and hit “Enter”), then click a note, do Ctrl+A, then right click and delete.
  • You might get a second deck titles “AnKing Overhaul for Step 1 & 2”. That’s ok. Just move those notes over to the AnKing deck. AnkiHub only deals with note IDs and doesn’t affect deck structure so it doesn’t matter where the cards are. In the AnkiHub add-on menu for subscribing to decks you can set the home deck that all new cards will import into
  • The deck description won’t update, so if it still says you’re on a previous version, that’s ok.
  • Depending on what you protect, you might get some empty notes. To fix this, you can go to Tools->Empty Notes.

Hello,

You just have to go to AnkiHub → click on AnKing Overhaul → subscribe in the top right → sync in your Anki after you have installed the ankihub addon

Thank you much appreciated, this has worked and I’ve done the start-up deck. Another question: It is set to 9999 reviews a day, I’ve read that this is astronomically high is this an error or something I have to reset myself? Also how do I actually start doing the questions? I’ve seen the instructions on how to unsuspend cards but on the left hand side there’s no option to actually do this? do i have to suspend them one by one?

12

You can keep the reviews at 9999 for now, since the power of Anki comes from doing the reviews everyday. What you should limit is the new cards per day, usually people do a max of 100 new cards a day with all their reviews.

To start doing the flashcards, it depends on how you want to approach this. Lets say you watch a boards and beyond video first → after you finish go to browse → tags → #AK_Step1_V12 → find #BNB → find the video that is tagged → Cmd + A to select all the cards in that specific tag → unsuspend the cards

Then in your main anki screen, the cards will come up as blue so you can do them.

You then rinse and repeat for all the videos whether its sketchy, pathoma, BootCamp etc.

Thank you for the clear instruction. I appreciate it as well as the swift response. Assuming my lecture resource is bootcamp, as i watch the bootcamps and suspend the cards tagged, will I be missing cards, assuming (might be wrong) not every card has a bootcamp tag? (I hope I’ve understood well)

The bootcamp team are tagging the videos regularly, they are not fully done however. Most of them should be tagged.

And yes not every card has a BootCamp tag, it depends on what the video talked about and whether the BootCamp team has decided to add tag to it or not

I recommend BootCamp however since their tagging is much better compared to other resources!

15

Thank you so much. I think I will unsuspend bootcamp-related cards as i go through the video resource and then perhaps tags related to the specific subject i.e - hematology or pulmonary. (are there additional tags to this effect? to ensure I’m covering all the cards related ot the topic I’ve just learned/watched lectures on)

16

Yes good idea!

I recommend the First Aid tag, its the most comprehensive tag for the entire deck.

So you can unlock the cards for that specific BootCamp tag like you mentioned, then go to the first aid tag (#FirstAid) and find that topic and unsuspend the cards there. That way you are opening all the cards relevant for that specific topic

This is what I’ve done as well (however with boards and beyond) and it worked really well for me

A post was merged into an existing topic: Hello, I really need your help. I have been using AnkiHub for months now and I love it but I cannot add any more flashcards to my deck

Hi I just download the anking step 1/2/3 deck right. it shows 0 cards ok. i saw a comment on how to unsusped but why you organize it this way? how do i unsuspned everything for step 2 that is waht i want to study for?

also, what is this “anking note types add-on”? do I need it? . i appreacite all the effort in this but it looks so over complicated going through all this information and dispersed information betweekn links. can you tell me straight forward?

20

If you want to unsuspend every step 2 card, go to browse → tags → click on #AK_Step2_V12 → click on any card → Cmd + A to select all cards → right click → toggle suspend

If the cards are yellow = suspended
If the cards are transparent = unsuspended

We do not recommend unsuspending all cards but if that works for you then that is how to do it

It is not needed, but recommended if you want to change how your notes look, colors, move fields up or down, auto open certain fields. If you do not want to do that then you don’t need to install the anking note types addon

21

ok got it thank you!,

so you suggest me to unsuspend the ones i will be using and then after im done with those and I feel confortable i should suspende them again and start another one, this should maintain schedulling right? ?

also, how do you suggest me goinng over step 2 cards, which tags yous I unsuspend first?

22

sorry, i meant which tags (cards) should i unsuspend first?

23

I suggest suspending the ones you want to do but keep them unsuspended so you don’t forget them. If you suspend the cards after you do them you will lose on the benefit of spaced repetition

If you suspend or unsuspend, both will maintain scheduling but if you suspend your cards you won’t see them again unless you unsuspend them

This video goes over it much better than I can explain!

Shelf exams: https://youtu.be/4O-sDcgF82c

Most of the time, students go through either #!shelf tag or #!Resources by rotation. Other students also use the UWorld QID addon (sold separately) and use that addon to unlock cards after they finish doing their UWorld questions
