Hello.

In light of what Heisig says at the start of lesson 11 - I would like to review ALL of my cards before continuing on, going through the 6 steps Heisig highlighted.

From the "Learn More" section (on this site) it says you can click on the Green bars to review un-expired kanji, however, this isn't working for me in neither Firefox nor Chrome.

How am I able to review my Green cards? (Currently all my ~200 cards are Green).

Thank you.

If you have only 200 cards consider removing them and adding them back in so you can review them all. Otherwise you will be giving a long review delay to some cards that you don't know that well (that you currently remember out of short term memory).

Manage > Remove Cards > Custom Selection > "1-200"

Thanks, that's exactly what I did.

I got 30 wrong out of 234 - about 15%- Glancing at the stories others have submitted on the more difficult kanji really helps - and I can pick and choose them for my own flash cards! I love this site ^^

Hmm? Isn't this sites sole purpose to help with reviewing your kanji?

Why wouldn't you take advantage of the awesome functionality koohii provides?

I like that the kanji appear randomly and the keywords and kanji are presented clearly and it's easy to go through them - rather than having to flip through the pages of the book in descending order (so that you can guess what elements the kanji will have based on the previous one).

(I like using the book every now and then).

Just figured it would work well for that particular one-review-fits-all event since it wouldn't interfere with the schedule on the ones here. De gustibus?

And the site is also great for finding great stories and ideas, don't forget that.

I also cannot review the Green cards even if I want to. Whats up with that? I don't remember it being this way before when I used the site a few years ago. Are we really prevented from pre-reviewing any stacks?

There are several different ways people use this site. Some people use the full functionality of the learning and review system. Lots of others use the stories but do their reviewing on other flashcard software, and then there's a large group of people who come here just for the forums.
