Why should I use online flash cards?

Because it's time to go beyond traditional flash cards. Conventional flash cards are a clunky ordeal that slow you down and make collaboration difficult.

And let's face it - scores often come down to who has the most memorized come exam time. You and your study group need to memorize as much as possible and do it quickly. IQFuse™ can help.

By using IQFuse™ you'll be able to study your flash cards at a more rapid clip, create your flash cards more quickly, and harness the power of teamwork with ease.

As you study, IQFuse™ will manage your cards when you sort them into piles such as "know," "don't know," and "unsure." No more wasting time (and valuable desk space!) keeping your cards organized. IQFuse™ takes care of all that for you, leaving you with more time for the actual studying.

It gets better, as creating cards is a cinch. You may edit your cards at any time as well as view any card's revision history. Cramped hands, handwritten scratch-outs, and dealing with a disarray of index cards are relics of the past.

IQFuse™ allows you to easily take advantage of teamwork, which traditional flash cards have difficulty tapping into. We all learned the benefits of teamwork as young children, yet cooperation and sharing with the most popular method of memorization, flash cards, have always been problematic. Either you've had to temporarily give up use of your flash cards while your friend used them, or someone has had to painstakingly duplicate the flash cards. IQFuse™ solves this dilemma.

Now, instead of each of you making your own set of flash cards, you can save time by building on each other's work and making a set together. You and your friends will be able to simultaneously study the same flash card set while you each maintain your own personal stacks for organization. Additionally, with many individuals sharing the same set of flash cards, you'll have many eyes to check the accuracy of the cards, ensuring you never again study inaccurate information!

And it's all free!

What am I going to do with all the time IQFuse™ saves me?

That's up to you.

You're busy, and nobody's going to fault you if you use the extra time to focus on the other things in your life.

On the other hand, you can use the extra time to drill yourself further. If you memorize an additional 10%, you've just likely significantly increased your score by a meaningful amount.

Either way you're ahead of the game.

I learn by writing things down. Is IQFuse™ for me?

Yes! IQFuse™ is indeed for you!

You may be surprised how well you learn by typing out your flash cards. Nobody accidentally handwrites "teh" instead of "the," but when you're typing it happens, which will force you to double-check your flash cards as you create them. By immediately reviewing your cards, you'll be reinforcing the information in your mind.

With IQFuse™'s online flash card entry system, the cards immediately appear on the right-hand side of your screen, allowing you to verify their accuracy and, if necessary, edit them all while remaining on the input page.

Try it. You'll see.
