How to actually use anki? Unsuspending decks?
I am confused on how to use anki effectivly. I would just unsuspend decks 5 days before an exam and try to study that, kind of use it like quizlet. However with boards coming up I am confused on how to balance that with classes.
For example, do I unsuspend a deck right after watching the lecture/ studying lecture? When I have multiple lectures in a day thats 100s of new cards in a day which is overwhelming. Then when its close to the exam time, the repetition will show months later but I need to review it again sooner for a closer class exam date. I have exams very often.
I have another deck for boards prep. I am reading thru my book and as I read chapters I am unsuspending decks. Again, overwhelming with the number of new cards in a day. Should I preset the new cards/day and preset max reviews/day to manage this? The boards prep is stuff I need to know months ahead.
With classes and boards together, its a lot! Would appreciate advice/tips!
