I've been using my SRS (Anki) to make it through Heisig (now up to 1600) and would like to start using it for learning grammar (I'm mid-level so something like JLPT 2). I have some questions/concerns though:

1- Is using an SRS going to work for grammar? I can't quite see how it would work.
2- If your answer to question #1 is yes, can someone point me to a deck I could load in my SRS?

Doing Heisig has been relatively straightforward, just go form one keyword to one kanji. But for grammar I'm not so sure ... hoping to be proved wrong though!

I just read through one section of Tae Kim and then do the sentences. It's simpler than you'd think once you start.

I`ve downloaded it and have sped through the first 200 and still not sure how this works. I can read the sentence and understand it so I pass it. But I still have these nagging questions:

1- What if I understand the grammar point but cannot read one kanji? I currently pass the card since it`s a grammar study and not a reading study
2- If I don:t understand a grammar point what am I supposed to do? Read up on it and learn it by myself, that I get. But next time the card comes up I`m worried I will get it right just because, and for for no other reason than it`s too easy to guess?

Had a look at Tae Kim`s web site to check out the grammar points and I know pretty much all of them. I guess I need a slightly higher level ressource

That's what I did when studying for JLPT2.
Once you are confident you know the grammar, you can start to fail it based on the kanji reading.
Or you could try to find a sentence with the same grammar and Kanji you know, or change the kanji. I didn't bother with that though.

If you understand it, pass the card, I don't think it has to be harder than that.
Are you worried that it's just short-term memory?
The SRS will sort that out.
After a few times you won't see the card for a week.
If you still understand it when you haven't seen it for a week, you should be fine.
If you don't understand it when you haven't seen it for a week, you fail it, and you'll see it again sooner.

Surely that should be a smiley face, the more you know the better
