Active recall, made simple

Reading isn't remembering. Testing yourself is.

Rereading notes feels productive, but the information fades fast. Active recall makes your brain pull the answer from memory, and that's what makes it stick. Here's how to use these cards:

  1. Write the question or concept on the front.
  2. Write the answer on the back.
  3. Quiz yourself instead of rereading your notes.
  4. Sort into two piles: know it / still learning. Review the hard pile more often.

Tip: give each subject its own color so you can grab the right stack in a second.

What students and teachers say

★★★★★

"I love these"

They've helped me get through X-ray school. I love how different colors can help me associate each topic with the color it actually works.

Sean K., X-ray technician student
★★★★★

"Great for school!"

I have been a repeat customer for 3 years now and these index cards are worth it! When reviewing for their statewide test at the end of the year, each student eventually gets a set of 60 cards. With middle school students, these cards hold up.

David, middle school teacher

"Great product for beautiful library cards!"

Excellent product for library cards! Plan to laminate to use them for years!

FAQ

Questions before you buy

What size are these?
Each card is 2" x 3.5", the size of a standard business card. Small enough to carry anywhere, big enough for a clear question and answer.
How thick are they?
65# cardstock (176 gsm) with a vellum finish. That's much sturdier than copy paper, so the cards hold up to daily shuffling and flipping.
Which colors are included?
Each box has 10 bright assorted colors. The color runs all the way through the paper (solid core), so the edges match the face.
How many cards do I need?
One box of 1,000 covers a single subject or course. For a classroom or a full year of studying, the 6-pack saves 23% and the 12-pack saves 25%, and both ship free.
Do they come with rings?
No. These are unpunched and don't include rings, so they're easy to shuffle and sort. Want rings? Choose our hole-punched version.
How do I use them for studying?
  1. Write a question or concept on one side.
  2. Write the answer on the back.
  3. Test yourself instead of rereading notes.
  4. Separate the cards you know from the ones you don't, and review the hard ones more often.
When will my order arrive?
We ship from California within 24–48 hours. Most orders arrive in 3–6 business days. Shipping is free on orders over $65, and $9.99 otherwise.
What if I'm not happy with them?
Contact us within 30 days of delivery and we'll email you a prepaid return label, no questions asked. Refunds are processed once the return arrives. Full return policy.
