Premed95 Anki — The Popular MCAT Deck Explained and How to Study It Faster

If you’re preparing for the MCAT, you’ve definitely heard of the Premed95 Anki deck — one of the most well-known decks for breaking down big concepts into bite-sized flashcards. It’s popular, it’s detailed, and it works… but it’s also huge, and studying it the “traditional” Anki way can feel slow and overwhelming.

If you want the benefits of spaced repetition without spending hours manually organising decks or reviewing cards inefficiently, Flashrecall makes MCAT studying way faster, cleaner, and easier.

Let’s keep this simple and break down what the Premed95 deck is — and how to study it more efficiently.

What Is the Premed95 Anki Deck?

The Premed95 deck is one of the classic MCAT decks built from:

  • Khan Academy
  • Kaplan notes
  • AAMC topic lists
  • Popular MCAT summaries
  • High-yield biology, biochem, psych, sociology, physics, and chemistry content

The deck helps you:

  • drill MCAT concepts
  • build long-term memory
  • review high-yield facts
  • learn content passively over time

But the deck is massive — thousands of cards.

And if you’re not careful, it can take months to get through.

The Problems Students Have With Traditional Anki

Even though Premed95 is good, using it inside Anki can feel like:

  • too many cards
  • slow daily reviews
  • hard to edit or reorganise
  • confusing formatting
  • clunky on mobile
  • no ability to ask for simple explanations
  • hard to understand complex cards
  • overwhelming for beginners

That’s why many MCAT students waste more time on the system than the studying.

How to Study the Premed95 Deck Faster

These tips work no matter what app you use:

1. Focus on high-yield topics first

MCAT isn’t about memorising everything — it’s about knowing the important concepts well.

2. Don’t add too many cards in one day

Slow, consistent progress > burnout.

3. Use active recall

Think before you reveal the answer.

4. Use spaced repetition

Review cards at the right intervals.

5. Simplify confusing cards

Shorter cards are easier to remember.

These principles come from Anki — but Flashrecall makes them much easier.

Why Flashrecall Is the Best Way to Study MCAT Content Faster

Flashrecall takes the same science Anki uses and makes it simple.

1. Import or Re-Create Decks Instantly

Flashrecall automatically keeps track and reminds you of the cards you don't remember well so you remember faster. Like this :

Flashrecall spaced repetition reminders notification

You can bring in MCAT content or recreate the key points by:

  • uploading PDFs
  • uploading screenshots
  • pasting notes
  • pasting whole topics
  • using AI prompts like

“Make flashcards for Premed95 Biology Section 3”

Flashrecall auto-creates clean flashcards quickly.

2. Built-In Spaced Repetition + Smart Reminders

Same power as Anki — but without the setup.

Flashrecall:

  • schedules your reviews
  • reminds you when it’s time
  • keeps your load manageable

Perfect for MCAT days where burnout hits fast.

3. Chat With Your Flashcards (Perfect for Explaining MCAT Concepts)

This feature alone makes studying faster.

You can ask the card:

  • “Explain this in simple words.”
  • “Give me a real-life example.”
  • “Break down this formula.”
  • “Why does this happen in the body?”
  • “How do I apply this on MCAT passages?”

Anki can’t do this — Flashrecall can.

4. Create Your Own High-Yield Decks Easily

You don’t have to stick to one huge deck.

You can split topics into:

  • Biology
  • CARS
  • P/S
  • Biochem
  • Chem/Phys

Flashrecall makes it easy to manage and customise decks in seconds.

5. Study Anywhere (Works Offline)

Perfect for:

  • commutes
  • short breaks
  • library sessions
  • before practice tests

6. Free to Start

No upfront cost like Anki Mobile.
