Why do we forget things we study?


• our brains trash information that we don't repeat every day, so we need to repeat that information to prime our brains that information is essential to retain it, but it is difficult to open our books to read every single day.



what are the Pitfalls of studying from Books?



• First, Studying from books is stressful in something like medicine, the problem is medicine overwhelming, number of information exceeds the number of our Brain neurons(40 Billion Neuron)


• Second, we need to remember that information for long-term memory to use in Clinical practice, after you study from Book you close it then you will forget everything you have read.


** How do we Prevent our brains to Forget the Materials we study? 


• The answer is by using (Anki), Anki is intelligent Flashcards software for desktop and Android, iPhone is designed to make our life easier to study everything in life, Medicine, languages, etc


• Anki is based on the space repetition Principle means that information you learn will be repeated at more and more indifferent intervals to stick in your long-term memory without the need to open or carry any book, yes this is true, you will no longer need to buy or carry those textbooks

6. The question is what is the difference between Anki Desktop and AnkiDroid?


• Anki Desktop is designed to study information for the first time for those in learning Que, after that information becomes in review Que you can Synchronize between desktop and Android to study review cards from your mobile without the need to use desktop


• The benefit is freedom by using AnkiDroid you can leave your room, and go anywhere you can go to the Garden to study your review cards


• if you are traveling, study your review cards with AnkiDroid, that is actually the benefit of Anki when you travel instead of carrying textbooks in your bag, opening it in the train, or public transport


 • If you use anki you will do your reviews anywhere, this will ensure that your brain continuously faces that information to remember it, in a busy day you can do your reviews only, even if don't do new cards, if you use books, in busy days you will not open it, but it is easy to do your reviews in busy days using Anki 


For the summary, Use AnkiDroid for Doing Reviews only


7. This article from the U world blog shows you how mnemonics can help you recall difficult un memorizable topics

https://bit.ly/3kPwcsY


• The idea is, mnemonics enhance short-term memory, by using Anki you enhance long-term memory to Flatt the forgotten curve till information stick in your long-term memory 



For the summary, to better recall use this combination ( Mnemonics + Anki )



• The best resource for Mnemonics in medical school is the Dirty medicine YouTube channel
