Goal a 5 on exam day
Sample card · Unit 1When is f continuous at x = a?Hover or tap to flip ↻
Answerf(a) is defined, lim f(x) as x→a exists, and the limit equals f(a).All three conditions must hold.
Answer before you flip

Say or write the answer first. Recall builds memory; recognition does not.

Space your reviews

Revisit a deck after 1 day, 3 days and 1 week. Short and often beats one long session.

Focus on the misses

Re-run only the cards you got wrong until they stick, then mix the whole deck again.
