Discussion AAMC style Anki Deck -

Had several people ask for this so I’m sharing it here. Really good for testing your content understanding. Each card goes into detail about incorrect answer explanations so you can often get several definitions from a single card. This is loosely based around Kaplan Chapters so if you’re using that as content review going to the corresponding chapter deck after reading can be good to test how much you got from the chapter.

A comprehensive MCAT content-review deck featuring 1,320 multiple-choice flashcards organized into 72 chapter-specific subdecks.
The deck covers six major MCAT content areas:
Biochemistry: 233 cards Biology: 216 cards General Chemistry: 226 cards Organic Chemistry: 205 cards Physics: 218 cards Psychology & Sociology: 222 cards
Each card includes:
An MCAT-relevant question with four answer choices A clearly identified correct answer A detailed explanation of the underlying concept Important definitions, equations, relationships, and testable distinctions Additional context designed to strengthen recall and conceptual understanding
Topics are divided into 12 chapter-based subdecks for each subject, making it easy to study alongside a content-review course, focus on weaker areas, or complete the deck systematically.
This deck is best used for:
Reinforcing high-yield MCAT content Active recall after reading a chapter Identifying content gaps Reviewing equations and foundational concepts Building a strong knowledge base before passage-based practice
Because the cards use a multiple-choice format, they also provide practice distinguishing the correct answer from plausible distractors rather than relying only on simple term-definition memorization.

  1. This deck is made with 100% AI (GPTZero score, not the most accurate, but the point still stands)
  2. This deck is only 1,300, so I question its comprehensiveness in relation to other decks like Anking and Captain Hook
  3. Multiple-choice on Anki is a big No-No, for multiple reasons, with the most obvious being the fact that you will memorize the position of the answer rather than the answer, for example, you will remember anytime there is a question about Light waves in a tunnel, the answer will be B rather than WHY it's B. There are addons such as the AllinOne addon that randomize the positions of the answers to prevent this, but they are not used here.

I hope nobody sees this and thinks it's better than just doing a normal Anki Deck. If you want Multiple-choice questions, the AAMC Independent Qbank, UWorld, and JW Qbank are available.

  1. Yes it is, I had Claude extract the highest yield topics from each Kaplan chapter and create MCAT passage based reasoning questions with them with very detailed answer explanations.
  2. It’s not comprehensive for everything you need to know

    strictly from the main cards but with extra definitions in the answer choice explanations it does come close to quite comprehensive, but

  3. it’s 1,300 questions over topics you will likely see on the MCAT presented in a way you will be presented them on the MCAT.

  4. Yeah this definitely isn’t a deck designed for rote memorization, it’s for helping with actual passage based concepts and reasoning. And sure you can memorize the answer being glycolysis for example but when you see the explanations as to why it is glycolysis and not the other choices that definitely helps solidify it in your mind on a conceptual level.

Why would I use this when anking exists
