Snaprevise flashcards any good?

I’m looking to buy some flashcards as making them is seeming impossible.
I’m studying OCR A level biology and the only set of flashcards I can find are snaprevises
Anyone know if there any good/had them etc

Thanks
I used Chegg Flashcards a few years ago to make some for my Chemistry A-level. They were free and the mobile app was really useful!

Why can you not make some yourself?

They're amazing! I'm in year 13 now have had them a few months and they're so so useful. Gone from a C to a consistent high B to even a mid A in some exams cause theyre so good for the harder topics like cyclic photophosphorylation lmao. Reading a textbook or even revision guides to try and learn hard topics like that give me a brain aneurysm but they're described so well on the flashcards (I'm OCR A; dont think they do an AQA one tho). Hope I've helped

Thank you. I'll be getting them then as I've been getting consistent C's. How do you revise from them aswell? Just passively or like textbook and write out kind of style.

Are the OCR ones on the website for bio for OCR biology A or B? I do biology A and want to get them but don't want to end up with ones for OCR Biology B

I got AQA alevel flash cards for physics, and turns out they made some minor mistakes with a few cards which is really annoying.
Other then that its really useful.

Is there a large difference between OCR and AQA as well, because they have AQA ones but not OCR ones ( which is what my a level is). So I'm not sure whether to get them or not. Would you recommend them?

There is a difference between OCR and AQA, but i don’t think its anything crazy. It should be fine if you do get the flash cards. Bare in mind if you get AQA physics cards you’ll see a few careless errors, but other then that its good.
But just remember to follow your OCR spec while going over the cards. Cause AQA may have flash cards that go over content you don’t need for your exam.
Hope this helps
