Flash Card software

Students Pre-Nursing

I like to use flash cards to study with but frankly my hands are getting tired of writing. Does anyone know of some software I can use that will run in a Windows XP environment?

You all are so welcome! I love the Cue Card program because of its diversity. You can change the format from giving you the answers first, add as many cards as you want to study from. One thing that I do is start off by creating and saving 7-12 cards at a time. I start off at the beginning and work my way down. I have had in excess of 170 different cards. So after I work my way through them I merge them together so I can keep studying all of the together. Also, I like the way it keeps track of the cards you know well verses the ones you are having trouble with. It keeps a rolling percentage so you can see where your progress lies. GREAT program!!!!! Have fun with it and STUDY HARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

maybe a dumb question...but I was going to download the one you use, but it said it was for medical assistants, so I hesitated and did not follow through. Can this site be used for nursing students?

No question is a dumb question :) I just checked out the website and it looks like it is for anyone. Good luck

I use the software to make my own flash cards. I did not download the medical assistant part.
