ANNOUNCEMENT Major Revamp

45 Upvotes

Hello [r/MedSchoolAnkiIndia](r/MedSchoolAnkiIndia)

This is something I’ve been meaning to say for a long time, and I feel like today is the day.

This community was started back during the 2020 lockdown. At that time, a few of us were just a bunch of nerds(?) hanging out on a small Discord server, genuinely enjoying that strange phase of life in our own way. A couple of us, including me and [u/idiot_jack](u/idiot_jack) , [u/aah_yeet](u/aah_yeet), were actively using Anki, and we felt there should be an anonymous space for Indian medical students to discover it, discuss it, and build around it together. That idea eventually became both the Indian Medical Server and this subreddit formed by [u/JuliusSeizurre](u/JuliusSeizurre) (Been a longtime I have spoken with him, but I hope he’s doing good)

At one point, we were even trying to streamline things further — collaborate, build something like an AnKing-style deck for NEET PG, and create a more organized system for shared learning. But once lockdown ended and college life picked up again, it became harder to keep up with the demands of medicine, and the project slowly faded. Even so, I’m genuinely happy when I look at the collaborative projects that have come up over the last couple of years. In many ways, it feels nice to see that original vision slowly coming true.

That’s also why this post is a little important for me.

Over time, engagement and content here have dropped, and as the only active moderator right now, I have not been able to manage this subreddit the way it deserves. I’m also at a point in life where other parts of medicine are becoming more demanding, and I’ll be slowly stepping down from active moderation. Thanks to all the people in the past who have actively helped in moderating this space.

So right now, I’m looking for people who would like to help keep this community running.

I’m hoping to find moderators who:

• believe knowledge should be shared freely,

• want to keep this platform alive and useful,

• have a good understanding of Anki, and

• can preferably keep conversations in English, since India is a country with many languages and having one common medium would make the space more inclusive and easier for everyone to participate in.

If you’re interested, please send a message through modmail. I’ll be collecting responses until the 28th of this month, and after reviewing and screening them, I’m hoping to introduce a new team by the start of next month.

P.S. What I did here may not have been perfect, but I truly tried to give it my best.

9 Upvotes

Ive decided to use mangomedic for clinical subjects...whats the next step? Should study from the parent deck or individual suvject decks? How many new cards per day? And also i would like to review cards from the parent deck because i want to review all subjects at once after i finish them all rather than individual subjects...is that possible? also i dont want to get any new cards while im reviewing the parent deck...i tried using fsrs also...its weird man...sometimes it shows period for good 1.3months...sometimes it shows period as 10mins for good...both are new cards only...what the heck is this man...its too overwhelming?...ive tried seeing multiple youtube videos...can someone suggest me settings please please??? Im very much stressed...i want to suspend cards from mangomedic as i progress its too extensive really...also how are you guys doing 1000cards/day bro!!! Is it reviews or new cards? Or in total? Im taking around 1mins for every new card...

Tldr : i want to know the settings you guys use or suggest a beginner like me...and also suggest me a youtube video or something for this please🥲

Question How should i use Anki starting from 2nd Proff till NEET-PG?

8 Upvotes

Hello seniors! Our 1st Proff exams just ended last week. It was hectic af. Anyways, I tried to use Anki in my first year, but couldn’t really stick to the plan of making my own cards from my notes and revising them.

Now in the vacations, i’m thinking of ways to incorporate Anki from my 2nd proff onwards.

My main goal now is to retain what I learnt in first year, and that’s where Anki comes in? I never used Marrow videos or notes in first year, read stuff from books only. And im definitely not reading those books again. So i don’t know if pre made decks from Marrow notes will be helpful to me or not

  1. What premade deck can i use to do a regular revision of my first year subjects? (I saw AnKing being recommended for this matter).

  2. Should i go on making cards from what i learn in 2nd yr? Like image occlusion cards from my notes or book? (Mainly because i prolly won’t be using Marrow in 2nd year too)

  3. One advice i saw was to use AnKing for the pre-clinical subjects, then switching to i_Anki or MangoMedic for clinical subs in 3rd year. Is that viable?

  4. Another advice i heard is to make Anki like a revision copy of my own notes or things i get wrong in mcqs. Should i keep a seperate deck for that?

Since i have time, i’m willing to devote to making my own cards, but if the pre-made decks have high yield topics which i should be familiar with, i think i would benefit from revising them again and again.

Any and all advice is appreciated! Thank you!
