[Results] Prelims 2020 Over - Gearing for 2021

For anybody having problems with anki or just finding it difficult to study via flashcards at this time, you can convert all the flashcards into a pdf file/s also using anki addons like 'export to papercards.'

@ankith88 ankidroid flashcards is the name of the app for android
(https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ichi2.anki&hl=en_IN).

However for exporting to pdf you'll need this addon (https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/2042118948) installed in anki pc. You cannot export to pdf/html via mobile.

The good people of this FORUM, can you explain to me why supermemo 18 is better than anki?
I haven't used either but from the outside, both look pretty similar to me. Please feed the noob in me. :)

I haven't used supermemo but I've been using anki for quite sometime.

Pros : Free (not for mac) opensource ; multiple addons for almost everything; 

Cons : mobile version isnt that good. 

imo, one of the major thing here is you have to dedicate sometime everyday for anki. If you miss a few days, backlog can be horrible. You can however adjust settings acc to your own speed. Its very good for rattafying static topics or obscure things but for other CA, I found anki to be stressing me a lot. I stopped using it for CA. I have shifted to Onenote. Also its best if you want to learn a new language or something. You can find pre made decks by others or make your own.

Also anki is beautiful.

@rocknrolla beautiful indeed. Even on days where nothing gets done, maintaining a streak gives some sort of accomplishment :)



Yes :) Your consistency is commendable.

Hey guys, what is your approach of solving the exam ? Do you attempt every question as you go or do you mark the 100% sure first and then go for others ? How many rounds of question paper you go through ? I'm struggling here with this. How do you avoid the temptation to mark (absolutely) blind guesses or do you go through with it hoping with probabilities ? Basically what's your strategy in those 2 hours ?

@Sk123 Get it printed and laminated and make it look like a card. Don't just take a printout on an a4 paper.
