Hi, instead of dividing into different databases its better to give tags and just activating and deactivating them. One possibility is using the card browser to give tags, select 25-50 cards, right click, add tags. Give the name "1-50" for example. Then activate theese cards for reviewing by going into the (de)activate cards dialog. When you are finished with the trunk, use the card browser to tag another trunk. Later when you add cards, you may give tags matching the subject of the material.
However the point of the program is that it schedules cards you already seen, so you practice recalling what you learned and does this BEFORE you forget them. In this way your are more likely remember the cards you already seen when taking the exam. Each time you successfully recall the card, it will take longer for the next time the card will appear. However such an approach may not work for everyone and may use other ways for reviewing the material again. kl. 01:27:33 UTC+1 torsdag 6. mars 2014 skrev [email protected] følgende: > > Hi, > > So I'm reviewing a database of 200 different flashcards that I've created, > and it seems to me that every time I start the program, it wastes an > inordinate amount of time reviewing cards that I already have sufficiently > memorized (2's through 4's) before getting to the new cards that I really > do need to learn on a timely basis.
