Routine of the author of AnnA

This page shows one way AnnA can be used.

A few notes:

  • I am a medical school student and my steps are over multiple days (something like 12h 2d 4d then 7 day graduation)
  • My True Retention rate is above 85% (but that might be because I have long learning steps so hard cards can spend weeks in learning).
  • I created AnnA recently so my usage will probably vary. Don't hesitate to open an issue if you want to give my your opinion.
  • I am using the V2 scheduler

Current routine:

  • Every morning, I open anki and take a look at my medschool decks:
    1. I run my autorun.py, resulting in a large drop in the number of learning cards in my decks and a new filtered deck containing 75% (capped at 150 cards) of my due reviews.
    2. I then refill two (regular) filtered deck for the learning cards using as settings: I exclude the cards rated today because it tends to mess with my learning steps
      1. deck:med_school_deck is:due is:learn -is:buried -rated:1 -rated:2:1 -rated:2:2 (ordered by random, will contain the learning cards that I struggled with the day before)
      2. deck:med_school_deck is:due is:learn -is:buried -rated:1 (rated:2:1 or rated:2:2) (ordered by random, contains the easier learning cards)
    3. I work my way through both learning filtered decks then the Optideck. This will ensure I reviewed all the useful cards of the day, but when some similar cards would have appeared on the same day, one of them has been buried. I think this is the most efficient way to go.

Further notes:

  • During weekends, I tend to do my learning cards and only a portion of the due cards.
  • If I have a huge backlog, say 1000 cards. I can spread it over 10 days using 100 cards per day while aggressively penalizing similarity by setting the argument rated_last_X_days to 6 days for example.
  • At the end of each semester, I add my most important decks to an Archive deck. Every day, I review 10 maximally spread cards over all my past decks and ordered by lowest_interval. The idea is to keep decently sharp on all the past cards I've created without taking too much of my time.
