Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between flashcards and practice questions for exam prep?

Flashcards are term-definition pairs designed for memorization through active recall—you see a term, recall the definition, then flip to check. Practice questions test your ability to apply knowledge to exam-style multiple choice scenarios. Research shows using both together is most effective: flashcards build your vocabulary foundation (150% better retention than passive reading), while practice questions test comprehension and application. For licensing exams like securities, insurance, real estate, mortgage, or nursing, aim to master key terms with flashcards first, then validate your knowledge with practice questions.

How do I use flashcards effectively to study for licensing exams?

The most effective flashcard study method combines active recall with spaced repetition. Here's the proven approach: 1) Look at the term and mentally recall the definition BEFORE flipping—this active recall is key. 2) Use spaced repetition: review cards you miss after 1 day, then 3 days, then 1 week. 3) Study in short 15-20 minute sessions, 2-3 times daily. 4) Go through all cards 3-5 times before your exam. 5) Focus extra time on weak areas. Studies show 20 minutes of daily flashcard review beats hours of cramming once a week.

Are free flashcards enough to pass professional licensing exams?

Free flashcards are an essential part of exam prep but work best when combined with other resources. Flashcards excel at memorizing key terms and definitions—crucial for understanding exam questions. However, you also need: 1) Practice questions to test application of knowledge, 2) A study guide for comprehensive content coverage, 3) Understanding of exam format and time management. Our 50 flashcards per exam cover the most heavily tested terms. Combined with our free practice questions and AI tutor for explanations, many candidates successfully pass using only free resources.

How many flashcards should I study per day for exam prep?

For optimal retention, study 15-25 flashcards per session with 2-3 sessions per day. Quality matters more than quantity—ensure you truly understand each term before moving on. Here's a recommended schedule: Week 1-2: Learn all 50 cards, 10-15 new cards daily. Week 3-4: Review all cards daily, focusing 70% of time on difficult ones. Final week: Quick review of all cards plus practice questions. Consistency is key: daily 20-minute sessions are more effective than 2-hour weekend cramming sessions.
