  • Love this App

    I enjoy using this app to help my microbiology students review for exams. I have created many case studies myself, but I use this for a ‘rapid fire’ review.
  • Not as good as paper flashcard version

    By Mrowan
    Things I like about the paper version that this app version lacks: (1) particularly high yield facts are bolded. (2) 200 cards instead of 140. This app needs a search function so I can search my individual organisms. Navigation needs improvement. We also need an index and a table of content that I can easily pull up. To find a particular organism I have to swipe through a lot of organisms that I don't care about.
  • Ok for STEP 1

    These cards are ok. They do not have offer the ability to customize decks as much as I would like or scroll through the deck in an easy way to find particular cards. Also the content is based on disease rather then bug so the vignettes sometimes have the name of the bug in them so it kinda defeats the purpose of quizzing yourself. It seems like there are better options out there and these are expensive.
  • Very expensive for almost 25% of the pathogen expected.
