Reading: AnKing MCAT Deck Wiki
Hi there! It looks like you’re having trouble finding specific cards in the AnKing MCAT deck for your Khan Academy studies. Let me help you navigate this.
From what I understand, you’re studying Unit 6: Foundation 1: Biomolecules - Amino Acids and proteins in Khan Academy and want to find corresponding cards in the AnKing MCAT deck.
Here’s how you can find the relevant cards:
-
Locate the Khan Academy tags: The AnKing MCAT deck is organized by tags rather than subdeck structure.
- Go to the Browse section in Anki
- On the left sidebar, expand the Tags section
- Look for the tag “#AK_MCAT_v2” and expand it
- Find and expand the “#KhanAcademy” subtag
- There should be tags organized by Khan Academy units and topics
-
Create custom study sets: If you prefer studying specific topics:
- Search for tags related to amino acids and proteins
- You can use the search function with terms like “tag:#KhanAcademy amino acid” or “tag:#KhanAcademy protein”
- Create a filtered deck based on these search results
-
Create your own subdecks: As mentioned by a user in the AnkiHub community:
“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.”
Remember that the AnKing MCAT deck integrates content from MileDown, Abdullah updates, Coffin updates, and MrPankow’s P/S deck, so all the content should be there - it’s just organized primarily by tags rather than subdecks.
If you’re still having trouble finding specific cards, you might want to check out the AnKing MCAT Deck Wiki for more detailed guidance on using the deck with Khan Academy resources.
Would you like more specific help with navigating the tag structure or creating filtered decks based on the Khan Academy content you’re studying?

Great question! Once you’ve found the relevant tags for the amino acids and proteins content you’re studying, here are the ways you can study those specific cards:
Option 1: Create a Filtered Deck (Recommended)
Filtered decks are perfect for focusing on specific topics while maintaining your spaced repetition schedule:
- From the main Anki screen, click on Tools → Create Filtered Deck
- In the search box, enter the tag path you found, for example:
tag:#AK_MCAT_v2::#KhanAcademy::06_Biomolecules::01_Amino_Acids_Proteins - Set your desired limit (how many cards to include)
- Choose your sorting order (default is often fine)
- Click Build
This will create a temporary deck with just those specific cards for you to study. After you’re done, the cards will return to their original deck.
Here’s a tutorial you can follow: How to Build a Custom-Filtered Deck
Option 2: Browse and Study
If you prefer to study directly from the browser:
- Go to the Browse section
- Click on the specific tag in the sidebar
- Select the cards you want to study
- Right-click and choose Study Now
Option 3: Create Permanent Subdecks
If you want a more permanent organization:
- Go to Browse
- Select all cards with the relevant tag
- Right-click and select Change Deck
- Create a new subdeck (e.g., “MCAT::Biomolecules::Amino Acids”)
- Move the selected cards to this subdeck
- Now you can study from this specific subdeck
Study Tips for the AnKing MCAT Deck
- Use the Khan Academy tags: Since you’re studying with Khan Academy, focus on those tags to align with your current learning
- Review progressively: Start with the cards related to the concepts you just learned
- Don’t overwhelm yourself: Limit new cards to a manageable number (15-30 per day depending on your schedule)
- Add your own notes: Use the “Lecture Notes” field to add your own insights from Khan Academy
The beauty of using the tag system is that you can easily find cards relevant to whatever you’re currently studying, regardless of how the original deck was organized.
Would you like me to explain any of these methods in more detail?
