Revision Coach

Flashcards for the facts behind the questions you miss, brought back before you forget them.

Open the page this article covers

The Revision Coach turns the facts behind the questions you miss into flashcards, then brings each card back just before you are likely to forget it. It is part of Premium.

Where cards come from

  • When you miss a question or mark it for review, the Coach adds flashcards for the key facts it tests.
  • Each card is a short prompt with one answer. Cards are doctor-written, like the questions.

Reviewing cards

  1. Press Review flashcards.
  2. Read the prompt, recall the answer, then press Show answer.
  3. Rate how well you remembered it: Again, Hard, Good or Easy.

Your rating sets when the card returns. Again brings it back soon; Good and Easy push it further away, up to a year.

The Coach page

  • Due today and New cards show what is waiting.
  • A daily target and an estimate of how long today's cards will take.
  • How you rated cards sums up your recent ratings.
  • Choose topics limits a review to the subjects you pick.

Limits and paused cards

  • Up to 40 new cards are added a day, so the queue stays manageable. Extra cards wait for later days.
  • A card you miss 8 times is paused, so one stubborn fact cannot clog your queue. Press Restart paused cards when you are ready to try them again.
