    Hey Everyone!

    I am looking into investing in flash cards. I wanted to know if anyone here has had a positive experience using the Wiley Flash Cards. I read a similar post that talked about how efficient the Becker’s Flash card was but the thing is that Wiley is a lot more cheaper.

    I used the Ninja Flashcards and I liked them better than Wiley because it was in a Q and A format. I think with Wiley, its just “notecards”, so it's not really testing your knowledge by asking a question and having you think up the answer.

    I believe the best investment in flashcards is investing your time to make them on your own. That way, you are forced to think and will retain the information much longer and better.

    I agree with sasa. Writing your own cards helps put it to memory. It is time-consuming but I think it helps retain the information better.

    I agree with sasa also. That's the only way I passed AUD. I had a huge stack of note cards! I even color coded them by topic.

    I agree with the making your own flashcard approach (…and circle gets the square), I tried the wiley flashcards on my android phone, I probably went through them like 5-6 times in 2 months (takes about an hour each time through for FAR it was 300 “cards”) , but having the flashcards I made myself helped me because A). I could be more specific and personalized and B). I can break it up to smaller chunks, plus like someone said its better to write it over again
