Outcome: a set of flashcards ready to study today, not a stack of notes you still need to process.

  1. Open ChatGPT or Claude.
  2. Paste your notes, textbook chapter, or the topic you want to study.
  3. Ask it to turn the material into flashcards in question-and-answer format.
  4. Copy the flashcards into a tool like Anki, Quizlet, or a simple spreadsheet.
  5. Review them daily using spaced repetition for better retention.

Sample prompt: Turn these notes into 20 flashcards in question and answer format, ordered from easiest to hardest.

Pro tip: Ask for the hardest cards to be repeated more often, plain spaced repetition works better with uneven weighting.
