Saved sets stay tied to the source you uploaded.

Citations on cards

Flashcards and quiz questions keep source references where supported.

Pro coverage & gaps

See what the generated set covered and where the source went unused.

Deep Dive sections

Section-by-section study material grounded in the original material.

Try the workflow

Create supplemental MCAT flashcards

Sign in to turn readable MCAT PDFs, notes, textbook chapters, and weak-topic material into saved flashcards, source-aware review, exports, and Pro coverage workflows. Use the public PDF to flashcards preview when you want to test one readable PDF first.

What this generates

A real sample of the Digestly study workflow.

  • Sample notes, flashcards, and quiz questions
  • Citations on cards and Deep Dive when source mapping is available
  • Pro coverage and gap workflows for saved study sets
Fit

Where this workflow fits

Digestly is designed for source-grounded study with citations on cards, quiz questions, and Deep Dive sections where supported.

Best for

  • Students searching for MCAT flashcards PDF workflows that start from their own readable material
  • Making supplemental cards from biology, biochemistry, psychology, sociology, chemistry, and physics review sources
  • Turning textbook chapters, course notes, lecture slides, and review packets into active recall prompts
  • Building extra cards around weak topics after practice passages or section review reveal gaps
  • Saving source-aware study sets with source references, exports, coverage, and gap review when available

Not best for

  • Replacing validated decks, instructor guidance, or permitted MCAT practice passages
  • Using Digestly as a prep course, a score predictor, or a sanctioned question bank
  • Generating official exam content or relying on unreviewed cards without checking the source
  • Image-only scans, locked files, or handwriting without readable extracted text

Workflow

How it works

One source moves through every step. Logged-in study sets keep citations on cards, quiz questions, and Deep Dive sections; Pro adds coverage and gap workflows.

  1. Step 01

    Choose one focused MCAT source, such as a readable chapter PDF, course note packet, or weak-topic outline

  2. Step 02

    Digestly extracts the readable study text and organizes the source into a study set

  3. Step 03

    Generate flashcards for key terms, mechanisms, formulas, pathways, and relationships

  4. Step 04

    Review the cards against the original source and edit anything that needs your class or prep-book context

  5. Step 05

    Sign in to save the set, keep available source references, export material, and use Pro coverage workflows

Example

From source material to study set

Source

A readable biochemistry chapter PDF on amino acids plus a short course-note outline for enzyme kinetics.

Designed to reduce setup time for targeted recall practice, while still requiring student review for accuracy

Generated study set
4 items
  • 01Flashcards for amino acid properties, enzyme terms, and reaction relationships
  • 02Concise answers with source-aware explanations where the source can be mapped
  • 03Coverage context showing which source sections were used for the study set
  • 04A saved deck you can extend after reviewing practice passages

Digestly vs alternatives

  • Digestly
    This page
    Best for

    Creating supplemental MCAT flashcards from your own readable PDFs, notes, chapters, and weak-topic material

    Limitation

    Works best with readable source text and does not replace validated decks or practice passages

  • Validated decks
    Best for

    Broad MCAT content review that has already been curated, tagged, and refined by other students

    Limitation

    May not match your exact class notes, textbook wording, or weak-topic gaps

  • Practice passages
    Best for

    Building passage reasoning, timing, experiment interpretation, and test-day endurance

    Limitation

    They expose weak topics but do not automatically turn your own notes into targeted recall cards

  • Manual flashcards
    Best for

    Maximum control over wording, card type, tags, and scheduling

    Limitation

    Writing cards from long chapters and notes can delay the start of recall practice
