Maximum Interval Change for Boards

If I am using anki to take Step 1 in June, should I change my maximum interval? It is currently on the recommended 365.

Hello,

There is a ton of debate on this on Reddit. I believe the AnKing used 120-150 day interval when studying for Step 1.

Since yours is so close, I would recommend 90-120. I personally have mine set at 90 since 120 I noticed I was forgetting a ton of stuff.

It all comes down to personal preference and what you feel is best for you. But in general, a lower interval does mean more cards to do (but it shouldn’t make that much of a difference since your Step 1 date is close)

If anyone has any recommendations, feel free to add to this thread!
