I have slaved over perfecting my Anki settings. I spend about 35 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!

Who am I:

My name is Zach. I’m a secondyear medical student in Philadelphia. I make videos about medical school, entrepreneurship, and other cool things. I love trying new things and often mess up. However, every time I screw up I usually learn something. Whatever I learn I post either on YouTube or my website (https://zhighley.com/​).

I write a weekly newsletter (https://zhighley.com/newsletter/​) linking the best things I read, watched, and listened to that week. Join the 300+ that read it every Sunday morning.
