How should I handle new Anki cards after learning a topic?

My current approach is to press Again on all 100 new cards once, even if I can recall most of them.

My thinking is: since these are new cards, I want to let Anki's algorithm know that I'm new to this material and make myself recall everything at least once.

For example, I study and understand hernia, then make 100 cards. On the first pass, I might remember 90 easily and forget 10.

Instead of pressing Good on the 90 and Again on the 10, I press Again on all 100, so I have to recall everything once more from scratch.

Is this a good approach, or am I unnecessarily resetting cards that I already know?

What would be the best way to handle new cards in this situation?

[New Add-on] PokeJourney — Turn your Anki reviews into a Pokémon journey

I've been doing a stupid amount of Anki lately and wanted something that made grinding through hundreds of cards feel a little less monotonous.

So I started making a Pokémon add-on.

Then I got carried away with it.

It's called PokeJourney.

The basic idea is simple. You choose a Pokémon region, pick a starter, and start at Level 1. Every Anki card you answer progresses your Pokémon. They level up, evolve at their actual evolution levels, and you can eventually take an evolution line all the way to Lv.100 and master it.

Once you catch a new Pokémon, you're not forced to train it. You can keep training it, or go into Box / Swap and switch to another Pokémon you've caught. You can also go back to an older Pokémon you were training. Their progress is saved.

There are also Gym Challenges. Pick a Gym Leader and start a challenge. While it's active, your cards count toward defeating the Gym instead of leveling your Pokémon. Beat the challenge and you get the badge + a victory animation/fanfare.

https://preview.redd.it/g7r14xz1t7kh1.png?width=299&format=png&auto=webp&s=fd868aa238c9caa59396aa605a566fc27c47c41c

https://preview.redd.it/s0fuqdc3t7kh1.png?width=940&format=png&auto=webp&s=9552e4738085015309a2214f5f3f8ae35748d8f4

I also added three different reward systems:

🎁 10 cards in a day → Daily Gift
⚡ 1,000 cards in a single day → Legendary Pokémon
✨ Study streak milestones → Mythical Pokémon

The 1,000-card Legendary is basically a reward for those completely unreasonable Anki days. Mythicals work off streaks instead because I wanted them to reward consistency rather than raw volume.

Gift Pokémon, Legendaries and Mythicals arrive at Lv.100 / Mastered.

There's a regional Pokédex, Pokémon Box, Gym badges, Today's Journey tracker and a Trophy Case for your overall progress.

https://preview.redd.it/f9ublqd7u7kh1.png?width=1342&format=png&auto=webp&s=382586664b02a62f5cb938d23bd26759a96f814c

It currently covers:

Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, Unova, Kalos, Alola, Galar, Hisui and Paldea.

https://preview.redd.it/gshs7nq6t7kh1.png?width=1342&format=png&auto=webp&s=6adafb9ba81cfc3db2cf7af474f2dd319e1c9cf5

Major events have animations/sounds too: catching Pokémon, evolution, Gym victories, mastery, Daily Gifts, Legendaries and Mythicals. Sounds can be turned off completely in Settings.

You can put the PokeJourney panel on the right, left, top or bottom of the reviewer, or minimize it if you want it out of the way for a while.

I tried to make sure none of this messes with actual studying. PokeJourney doesn't replace Anki's scheduler. It just uses the cards you're already reviewing as progression. Major animations temporarily block the answer controls so you don't accidentally answer the next card, and simultaneous events are queued instead of appearing on top of each other.

I've been building and testing this while actually using Anki, so I'm sure people will find bugs and weird edge cases I haven't found yet.

But it's finally at the point where I think other people can have fun with it.

Modified I_Anki (2025) vs MangoMedic V2.0 for NEET PG / INI-CET 2027? Hit a wall, need advice 🫶🏽

Hey everyone,
Been using Anki daily for a few weeks now while prepping for NEET PG / INI-CET 2027. I’ve tested out both Modified I_Anki (2025) and MangoMedic, but I’m honestly stuck in decision paralysis on which one to make my main deck. Before committing to months of daily reviews, I’d love to hear from anyone who has used either (or both) during their prep.

For context, I’m working with ADR plexus offline classes and MarrowQ-Banks.

Questions for anyone who’s used these decks:

  1. If you used MangoMedic, what did you use for the 1st and 2nd year pre-clinical subjects ? Did juggling two separate decks feel manageable long-term?

  2. If you went with I_Anki, did you find the card styles and formatting easy to stick with for full-syllabus prep?

  3. For someone starting their main push for 2027 right now, which approach would you recommend?

Appreciate any advice or real-world experiences!

Best way to turn university PowerPoint lectures into useful Anki cards with practice questions and images?

Hey everyone,
I’m a university student taking courses such as Biochemistry, General Microbiology, and Biology. Almost all my professors teach directly from PowerPoint lecture slides, and our exams are heavily based on those slides.
I’m trying to find an efficient way to study directly from my PowerPoints while turning the material into useful Anki cards. I’ve tried AI-generated Anki decks, but they haven’t worked well for me. They usually create basic, text-only cards and don’t give me the kinds of questions I actually need—especially application-based questions or cards that use the important images, diagrams, pathways, graphs, and microscope images from my lectures.
Ideally, I want a workflow that would help me:
Generate useful practice questions and flashcards from my PowerPoint or PDF lecture slides
Preserve and include important images, diagrams, pathways, graphs, and microscope images
Create image-occlusion cards where I identify or interpret parts of an image
Generate questions that test understanding and application, not only definitions
Create different types of questions from the same material
Keep everything organized by course, chapter, and lecture
For example, if a Microbiology slide contains a bacterial-cell diagram or a Biochemistry slide contains a metabolic pathway, I want cards that show the original image and ask me to identify, explain, or apply what is shown—not turn the entire slide into a text-only card.
I know I can manually screenshot every image and make every card myself, but I have a large number of PowerPoints throughout the semester, so doing that for every slide would take forever.
Has anyone found a reliable Anki add-on, AI tool, or workflow that can turn PowerPoint/PDF lectures into high-quality cards while keeping the important images? I’m not looking for AI to blindly generate an entire deck—I want a system that saves time while still letting me control the questions and make sure the cards match what I need for my exams.
What has worked best for you?
