Is quizlet good for e.g. science combined or just in general for GCSE subjects?

Is quizlet good?
Depends on the subject AND unit.
It works better for some units than others (most people don't realise this and find themselves really good at somethings and insecure at others) . this also applies in general for all revision methods, some are better than others depending on what your acctually learning

I find it useful for learning science equations or short facts, but anything long becomes difficult to remember. Check if the deck was made by a teacher or not too, that way you'll avoid people's personal revision.

I guess I'll do that for some subjects just to test it out...but can I ask how long were your answers to a question you wrote down. Did you make it very lengthy and detailed or did you try and make it as simple and short as possible when making your flashcards

kept it simple. just included key words. i broke it down into small cards. i mainly did key terms and definitions. i can show you some of my current flash cards to give you an idea if you like

I used it for history dates and events - other than that, I didn't bother with sciences. It's good for short factual recall. I think it depends more whether it works for you. I wasn't really a fan of flashcards - more of a mind map person.
