Now that bros is on 2.1, which is better? Zanki v bros 2.0??

Brosencephalon 2.0: Interactive Textbook

Reposting to /r/medicalschoolanki - taking off /r/brosencephalon because copyright


See brosWorld 1.0 for a new deck distilled by four tiers of yield containing only 2700 cards.

Use Brosencephalon 2.0 deck to selectively strengthen subjects you are weak in.


Features

  • Pathology, Immunology, Reproductive, Cardiovascular, Respiratory, Renal, Public Health, and most of Neuro have been completed.
  • This is also the only version of Bros to cover the Public Health Sciences chapter, including biostats, ethics, developmental milestones, and healthcare policy.
  • I've added anything thing from FA2017 not in the Bros v1.5 for the aforementioned chapters.
  • I've annotated nearly all cards coming directly from FA with screen captures of where the information came from (I have the FA2017 ebook) - Example.
  • I've annotated a large number of Neuro cards with custom figures designed to illustrate FA in a simple manner without superfluous details - Example.
  • In response to user feedback, I've also sorted the completed chapters. If a card wasn't sorted, it's likely on a topic not mentioned in FirstAid. All chapters follow the organizational structure of FA except for Neuro. Neuro pathoanatomy is found under anatomy subchapters. ie, Anatomy > Perfusion > Arteries and Stroke.

  • I've updated all instances of the word "brah" to "breh" to keep up-to-date with 2017.


Future Plans

  • Stratify the deck into high yield and low yield cards. As I run through uWorld over the next two weeks, I plan to tag cards that were directly involved in the question answer. The number of uWorld tags will indicate yield level. This should help reduce the deck into a manageable few thousand cards so you can start with the highest yield stuff and use the remaining cards to strengthen any areas of weakness.
  • Gather user collection data at some point for analysis. A major benefit to the community would be that we could improve cards that users frequently struggle with.

The hierarchical tag system replaces subdecks. You can navigate chapters, subchapters, and topics in the card browser. You can safely move the cards you wish to study into any combination of new decks, all while preserving the tag hierarchy. This allows for better customization of decks to reflect school curricula.

Updating

There shouldn't be any issues. Make a backup of your anki folder to be safe. You may need to move cards from one deck into the other via the card browser.
