I have slaved over perfecting my Anki settings. I spend about 3-5 hours on Anki every day. I started doing Anki religiously in November of 2019, which is about 2,300 hours on Anki. That’s crazy. I know it’s crazy though. So If I am this crazy, and spending this much of my precious life with Anki, I better be using it as best as I can. I have found the settings, that I think, work best.
This is a long video, so buckle in!

For anyone with the newer version of Anki, when you try to access deck settings, the interface is different from the one you see in Zach's video; hold Shift while you're clicking on the settings gear symbol and continue to hold it while you're clicking on "Options," if you want to see the old interface

@@ty5731 I'm totally in the same boat :) But I'm curious, do you ever refer to the stats or settings page after setting to AnKing's / Zach's recommended? I've been using Anki for some time and I've never used those two pages.. am I missing out on something? I usually just unsuspend relevant decks after watching content (as Zach recommends) and then simply review daily :) Wondering if it's necessary to refer to those settings/stats :)))

Hey Zach, I'm a Provisional Psychologist working in Australia completing an internship which has all the same study commitments as a Masters Program but with self-directed study. After using Notion and a myriad of other applications, I have found that your Anki method has been the most effective. Aside from having to create most of my own cards, it has been a blessing. Thank you so much for dedicating the time to showing people a legitimate, evidence-based process for learning and retaining information. You present the information so clearly and logically. I also love how you emphasise personal preference for study. For too long, we have all focused on the clichés like highlighting, re-reading, and cramming. Now I can create new cards and review past content in the one place. Keep smashing goals dude, i'll be watching religiously!

Okay so I am at that period of my life when I have some really difficult exams (no med student tho) and didn't know how to even start the prep. Plus, thanks to covid, I haven't been out in a year( and yes I was out of breath when I went out to walk with my mom and she wasn't) so I had been contemplating running but didn't have the motivation and miraculously I came across your channel a few days ago and boom! Both issues solved in a day!! Just downloaded Anki and ordered a couple things I need for running. Thank you so much! Ps : you just got yourself a fan lol, please make more videos on running too!!

I have tried both version software and the mobile app and I've already seen a big difference in my understanding and in my memorizing capacities. Thanks a lot Zach.
