How to use the flashcards
- Choose your list and a part, or leave "Whole list" to mix everything.
- Read the question and say your answer aloud before you turn the card.
- Mark the card. "Know it" cards drop out when you choose to show only "not yet" and new cards.
- Come back tomorrow. The cards you did not know are waiting; nothing is sent anywhere.
Why mark yourself
Sorting cards into two piles is the oldest study method there is, and it works because it puts your time where the gaps are. After two or three rounds most people find that fifteen or twenty questions cause nearly all their mistakes. Those are the ones to write on paper and carry with you.
Cards are shuffled
The officer does not ask questions in list order, so the cards come in random order too. If you want to read a part in order, with notes, use the question pages: 2025 list or 2008 list.
The 65/20 cards
If you are 65 or older and have been a permanent resident for at least 20 years, choose "Only the 65/20 questions". That gives you the 20 marked questions of your list, the only ones you need. The rule is explained on the exceptions page.
To clear your marks, press "Forget my marks" under the cards, or clear this site's data in your browser.
