Advice for keeping up with reviews?
MS1 here. Anki works well for me but I’m struggling with keeping up with reviews.
My school does a 3-week block system, and I can barely keep up within a block. I usually have ~500 (+/- 100) reviews each day to slog through before news. I’m scoring well on in-house exams ( ~85–92%), so the content is sticking when I take MC exams.
my card count is ~1200–1400 / day, averaging about 10s / card. I add about 250 new cards/day (using HY / relatively HY / temp tags from B&B + FA -- we have a doc correlating them to lectures) to keep up with content. my again count is ~55% learning, ~29% young.
Now I’ve got a ~7k review backlog from MS1 that I want to clean up over the summer and actually stay on top of moving forward for MS2.
With anki being my main study method I'm really questioning why I cant keep up but so many people can -- making me think I'm being inefficient somewhere. do I just need more AIS time with cards to power through or am I using again too often, or spending more time on cards? figured if I can find where I am lagging it may be easier to target.
I do know a handful of people at my school are keeping up with past blocks. they weren't able to offer me much besides "its tough but I prioritize it and do it" -- but I really feel like I am running out of hours in the day to keep up. thanks.
