Reviewing flashcards sooner - shapirog - 2010-04-02

Hey guys,
Is there a way I can review flashcards without having to wait until this site lets me view them? It seems it only lets you review every few days. I'd like to just choose a bunch of them and review them whenever I like. Is this possible? Thanks!

That defeats the purpose of the SRS... the point is that it uses an algorithm to determine the time just before you will forget it, that way you maximize the time spent studying instead of repeatedly drilling something beyond the point you need to. It works, and you'll get 80-90% retention very quickly and eventually 90-95% retention as cards mature. Trust the system. It's worked for many before you and it will work for many afterwards.

Don't worry, if you go through RTK adamantly, you will soon be swamped by reviews! Then you will wish you didn't review too early Wink

Trust your memory, if you want an extra review, add cards only the next day morning and test them right away. This will let you catch bad stories very early, as they really ought to survive in your short term memory for the night! You'll still have a 1-3 day lapse after the 1st review, but then you can be more confident about your memory.

Snap out of it shapirog!!!!!

Understand the system. That way you know when it's best to go against it or not use it at all.
