How to Use these FlashcardsWhat does it mean for you to know the word? If you lookat the word on a flashcard and can remember thedefinition, you’ll know the basic meaning of the word.The wrong way to study flashcards is to keep going fromfront to back, front to back. This is ineffective becauseyou spend time on words you already know and not enoughon words you have trouble with.Here’s how you can use your flashcards intelligently.The strategy we recommend is to review the cards youhave more problems with more often. Each day, start with a stack of 30 cards. Go through each card. Place the card into one of twostacks: Know it, or Struggled with it. For the Struggled with it stack, go through the entirestack once. Then, split it again, into a know it orstruggled with it stacks. Repeat step 3 until you have no more Struggled with itstacks. You’ve now created a waterfall of stacks, wherethe stack at the end has the words that are hardest foryou, and the stack at the beginning is easiest.Theoretically, you should know all the words now.

Go back up the waterfall. Take the last stack, andcombine it with the next highest Know it stack. If youforgot any of the words in the stack, go through all ofthem again. If you remembered all the words in thestack, integrate the next highest Know it stack. When you’ve gone back to your first Know it stack andyou have all the cards in one stack again, you shouldnow know all the words very well.Think of it like a series of waterfalls, where you keepfiltering the cards by difficulty until you’re left with themost difficult, hard to remember cards.Now, go for it! Print out the rest of the pages using thesettings we described, and master these common TOEFLvocab words!
