Is subtracting the step 1 tags unnecessary now that there's "only step 2" tag under "no dupes" tag correct? Also, when you unsuspend certain number of cards, do you just keep them in the original deck or do u make a subdeck or filtered deck? Like keep all them in original deck will pile up to like several thousand no? sorry im a bit new to anki.
is this deck useful if I am downloading in 2024 to study for step 2?my question is should I follow the same steps u r showing or r there any updates?
Great question! Yes, it is still the exact same steps. The most updated version of the deck is still linked, which is the free version has all the information you need to excel on step two and on clinical exams. Best of luck!
@@AustinNguyenMD thank you
Good stuff- thanks for the video. Just finished IM last week (in your backyard at Lutheran lol- fun place) and it was helpful. Granted I'm not a fan of giving a pt presentation longer than 3 minutes.
K kk...!!
What Anki deck did you use for Pediatric rotaion? and where can I download it?
Hey! I used the Anking step 2 deck for all my clinicals and outline how to set it up in this video, best of luck!! ua-cam.com/video/cOKy_hgecYM/v-deo.htmlsi=0twrPx1YRvZO6BS5
How long did it take you to complete that manuscript? I am an incoming first year and im looking to go into orthopedics and dont really know where to begin with trying to get first author pubs.
Hey man it took about 5-7 months! I would recommend finding some early mentors or residents with projects and start on a couple at once if you can since they all take time to start up and finish so if you can do a little at a time and learn the process it’s super helpful. Research has been an important part of the ortho match and even more so with step 1 being pass fail. Best of luck!!
Is this Colectivo? Sorry for this weird comment if I’m wrong but this looks identical to the coffee shop I go to and there aren’t many of them at all. What are the odds? I believe only 1 location looks like this too, with the garage-like aesthetic.
Good eye! Yes this is as filmed at colectivo awhile back! Haha, best of luck on your studies! 🔥
Hello Dr. Nguyen, I have a lot of AP credit and am planning on applying to UIC this fall. You say to use AP credit and use that to take upper-level courses faster, but does taking upper-level science courses fulfill med school requirements? For example, if i take ap chem to get out of general chem, does that satisfy the general chem requirement for med school if i take an upper level chem course? Sorry, just sort of confused whether I should or shouldn't use my AP credits
Great question. It absolutely can fulfill prerequisite courses so long as you supplement with higher level courses such as Orgo 1 and 2 right away as a freshman followed by Biochem 1 and 2. This may vary from medical school to medical school but generally I had no issues with any programs and I took all my credits! Best of luck!
Did u study CMS forms?
I did study the NBME practice forms, yes!
@@AustinNguyenMD does it contain alot of info more than UW ? thnxx
@kerolossamer5412 similar content but different style of questions and good exposure as shelf exams have a mix of NBME style and uworld type questions!
For some reason I can't open the Anking deck Step 2 with media. Can you share link to anki deck below plz?
Hi! Yes here it is. Please download with media file. Let me know if any issues www.reddit.com/r/medicalschoolanki/comments/swjqzh/anking_overhaul_step_1step_2_version_11_update/?
Any tips on maintaining high energy throughout these longer days? I always tend to get really tired/brain fog in the afternoons, usually after lunch haha.
Hey! Try to eat higher protein and less carbs. Avoid large meals in one sitting so you don’t get postprandial tiredness. Otherwise, the good ole cup of Joe always does the trip! Best of luck!
great video! Thank you for this!
No problem! Super happy this was helpful - best of luck to you 💪🔥
Thanks for the video. Can you share the ANKI deck for pediatrics that you used?
You’re welcome!! I used the Anking deck and describe hope to install and set it up in this other video hope it helps: ua-cam.com/video/cOKy_hgecYM/v-deo.htmlsi=flP2dNLz7_eC70QU
Thank you
No problem bro!
You come off as a D*** I love it.
incredible content! 🙌🏼
Appreciate it my guy!! 💪
just passed step1! and here we are hahahah😊
Congratulations!! Onto the next step (literally and figuratively) haha!! Best of luck 💪
i'm new to anki (using it for the first time ever for rotations) so i'm confused on what to do after "unlocking" the cards. i think i correctly unlocked 50 cards (they're highlighted yellow) but now i have no clue what to do next in order to review those cards. you kind of lost me there 😅
Hey! Good questions. So unlocking is actually not yellow. Yellow means they’re still suspended. Check out some of my other videos on Anki basics for more info, but once you unlock the cards they should show up blue and you can start studying the cards! Make sure your settings are all correct though 👍
Hi Austin, what do you do to get rid of the not doing cards? I'm referring to what you did at time stamp 14:42. Thanks
Hey! I use control + alt + click to remove those cards! Hope this helps 👍
So how do actually study the tags... Like how do I study FM only for exmple?
Hi! You need to filter based on the tags as outlined in the video using the shortcuts. Best of luck 👌
Starting my clerkships this May and Anesthesia / Surgery are my first! Thanks for the tips man!
Best of luck on kicking off rotations! Happy the video could be helpful. Wishing you all the best 💪🔥
is there a way to categorize the cards for review by system or specialty? Instead of having to review everything under the anking deck?
Good question! Yes, you could move the cards around or specifically study under a specific deck of cards if you click the drop down menu on the start screen but I highly recommend just studying everything together as your step exam will be all mixed content and you want to keep everything straight and in spaced repetition
God bless you and your family brother🙏
Thanks brother! Appreciate it 🙏💪
Man, I am big fan of you. Wish you a best of luck for the next chapter of your life.🎉

Hey Austin! Thank you for the video. I had a question about subdecks. I created some subdecks while studying for Step 1 but I kind of want to "reset" my anki before I start rotations but don't want to lose my time intervals. I'm currently using Ankihub, and couldn't find any resources that talk about a way to update the decks because obviously, Ankihub does that now. My thought process was that I could sign out of my ankihub, then update the deck according to anking V11, and then resign in with ankihub. I just didn't know if updating my deck would get rid of my subdecks like I wanted and put the cards back in their original decks.
Hey, great question. In regards to what you were saying about sub-decks, typically, if you update your deck, it would update each individual card, and it would not move the cards into different decks from where they were in the original location. Instead of resetting your Anki, prior to going into rotations, I would recommend, you continue to pick up studying where you left off and just right click the cards that are difficult for you and you can press the “forget” option This will allow you to relearn this card as if you have seen it for the first time. There will be some cards that you already remember and know very well and in that case, there’s no need to reset the entire interval the card. Best of luck! I hope this explanation makes sense.
you didnt mention the addon that shows stats when you click on a specific deck. may i know the name??
It should do that on its own if you click stats while inside of a deck. Otherwise, I just have the mentioned stats add-ons as listed and described
Hey austin, for some reason when i make the custom session on review ahead. it doesnt add new cards. only adds due cards. what settings to check out to include new cards?
You shouldn’t study ahead or postpone new cards or those that are “red” meaning they are still in the learning phase. Reason being, these cards have very small intervals especially new cards that haven’t had any interval yet or cards you are learning that has an interval of 1 or 2 days so you should avoid studying them ahead or postponing and instead studying them the day they are due. This add on is more for mature cards with large intervals of months or more since moving it around 1-2 days wouldn’t make a difference. Hope this helps!
Whats this ? laptop's
Asus zenbook 14!
Hi, Austin thanks for your anki videos, they are super helpful! Are the #UWorld and #OME tagged questions also contained in the #AK Step 2 v4? Do you recommend doing the #UWorld tagged questions as well for Step 2? Thanks!
No problem! Yes those would generally all be under the step 2 v4 tag! I would follow my instructions in the video and try to make your own cards for Uworld questions that you get incorrect as sometimes doing the tagged uworld questions can spoil the answers for when you do the Qbank! Good luck!
How many anki cards should I aim to do daily? Just started anki. Thank you so much for all the videos!
No problem! Glad I can help. Depends on what you’re using it for and when your exams are but I’d shoot for 100 new a day! Make sure to do all reviews daily
Your undergraduate research is subject ANAT, not BIOS. Do you recall why and how you enrolled in anatomy rather than biology research class? Did you reach out to an anatomy research professor to set it up?
Hey! Good question. I did research in an Alzheimer’s Disease lab. Our university just coded the credits under ANAT but any research lab that has good mentors and opportunities to publish would be good! Doesn’t have to be biology specifically. Best of luck!
its become a tradition for me to watch your video before the start of every rotation, great video as always. Love the tips
So flattering! Thank you and wish you all the best! Keep up the great work! 💪😎
Do you only do the BB cards? Since each resource has different cards?
Nah, I do BB, Pathoma and sketchy but I tried to not do cards that overlapped from BB and Pathoma! Hope this helps!
Thanks for the video. When using the postpone cards add on did you change the interval coefficient to 0.0 like I’ve seen other people suggest or did you leave it the way it was?
No problem! I did not change the coefficient I just postponed by 1 day here and there but ultimately tried to do my cards daily as prescribed! Haha best of luck!
Could you please which interval we should set in our decks or card??
Check out my video on best Anki Settings! Normally I don’t modify the interval at all.
Hi austin,how many cards do you recommend to unsuspend daily,does 100-150 new daily can be manageable with reviews? How many reviews you had daily?
Yes that sounds manageable! It would range from 150-200 a day but depends on how many reviews you do!
I mean i want to unsuspend daily 100-150 new cards,i think the reviews will be much higher daily
@siham2697 Hard to say, but if you’re unlocking 100-150 daily it will be front loaded each day until you can space out the cards. Reviews would be probably 300-400 and then you would have to do news after
Yay this is my favorite video!
Hi austin,did you created flashcards from your incorrects or just unlock related flashcards without creating new?
Great question! I did both. Used premade cards if they were available, otherwise, I created my own!
Did you create new subdeck in anking and add new missed question with missed tag?
@design7836 I just created a separate deck altogether called Qbanks and made cards in that without tagging
M2 now. What I have been doing since last fall for Anking has been unsuspending Step 2 surgery questions applicable to pre-clinics lecture material and following up with Amboss insight. Fingers crossed that Cheesy and Dorian pay off!
Let's get it!! Keep up the strong work, it will pay off!
Thank you please show a sample how to make a good anki card from UW missed questions
Good idea for a future video! Honestly I just read the explanation and key learning educational objective and search key words in Anki for pre made cards. If there are none, I make my own card and I have a video going over how I make cards although it isn’t based off of uworld in that video. Hope that helps!!
Thanks austin,i want to use devirgillio book, ome and uworld ,can you recommend the best way to use the deck how you filtered alongside these resources?how i can do that I want to use the filter as you do but how can i unlock each chapter i finish lets say i finish GIT or trauma i want just to unlock these cards from the filtered search you show how can i do that?
Thanks for the video,still i didnt start rotations ,i want to ask you how to use the deck after solving uworld how i can find relevant cards after each uworld question ,after i follow your steps i got 5000+ and i sorted them on created for IM but how i can find relevant cards ,and should i solve them after each uworld question or to unlock 50 card each day? And i want to know each question had alot of related cards?
Good question! The best way I’ve found is to do uworld and read the explanations carefully. Afterward, you can search key terms and phrases that you do not fully understand like “nephrotic syndrome” and unlock the relevant cards related to it and created in the same day as it. I was unlocking about 40-50 cards for every 40 block of questions. Best of luck!
Thanks austin,but the way you show have questions based on other resource than uworld so how you unsuspend them? How you pick which cards to unsuspend (i mean the cards that not based on uworld)
I usually just unlock a chunk of related cards and study them after reviewing them for those cards! It’s not bad just studying the cards even without doing the questions or watching any videos!
How can i find these related cards based on what? Abd how many new cards is best to aim each day
You should just go based on created date! I would look at the total number of cards and divided by how many weeks you have before your exam. Typically about 100-150 cards is more than enough 👍
Don't see the "!Notdoing" tag. Any ideas?
Hey! The new updated Anki likely just already incorporated removing those cards without you having to do the step manually. I wouldn’t worry!
@@AustinNguyenMD thanks! Starting my rotations next week. Sharing these videos with friends
Thank you! You got this! Best of luck 🔥💪
Just got my score back and hit my target! 🎯 This video was super helpful!
Music to my ears! Super happy to hear you hear your goal score - congratulations!! Best of luck on residency applications & thanks for leaving a comment 😁💯
Thanks for the video,what is the difference between this way and the way anking show how to use the deck,are alot of cards will be added here?
Hi! This is similar to how Anking recommends to use the deck as well. This ensures you only do the cards relevant from Step 2 and shelf exam for each rotation! Best of luck.
@@AustinNguyenMD Thanks,I think he get rid of lolnotacop and zanki pharmacology and zanki step decks,do you recommend to do that?i didnt use anki for step 1 and i want to use it just for rotations, Another difference that you add resources when you click shift,he doesnt do that? So what is the overall difference and what is preferred to use just for rotations
Good question. Since you didn’t use it for step 1 you don’t need to use those decks but no need to delete them. Just keep them suspended. Follow the steps in my video and that’s how you find all the cards for just step 2 and shelf!
@@AustinNguyenMDafter i followed the steps in the video i got 5500 cards for IM , Because i want just to use them for shelf should i do control+alt for zanki steps dexk, zanki pharmacology and lolnotacop? Or those cards are necessary for shelves?
Hey! I would not control + alt anymore cards as they are often times double tagged and you don’t want to miss out on any of the necessary content! 5500 cards for IM sounds like the accurate amount 👍 Good luck!
So proud❤
Thank you!
