Great experience
After using Anki for years, I'm now using the free version of Brainscape and the experience is great. I'll keep using it and may well upgrade to the premium version to access all the features.

I am hardcore visual learner
I am a hardcore visual learner, and the Brainscape flashcard UI has been wonderful. I have seen improvements in my certification renewal grades, and my decks have been helpful to other groups of users. I highly recommend Brainscape to anyone preparing for exams or wanting to learn interesting facts in a short amount of time.

Fantastic App, but…
Brilliant app, shows your ‘mastery’ and how long it thinks you should study for however to import information from a PowerPoint or notes into flashcards you need the paid version, although you can do maybe 6 imports without for free. I also wish it had a games feature like quizlet so it was more interactive. Overall, good!

Hi Leah! Brainscape's core focus remains on scientific learning principles and personalized learning experiences versus gamification. But we we do understand some have a preference and appreciate your feedback. Hopefully you'll continue studying with us! Chuckee@Brainscape

Great for learners of all ages
Brainscape is great for students of all ages who are wanting to learn new terms - from first grade students wanting to learn sight words, to older students learning a new language and beyond. It's a game changer and it's fun! For a more advanced feature, it would be great to see tables added as an option in order to keep things more organized for more difficult language concepts involving multiple tenses and cases. Overall, awesome program that every learner needs to try!

Great help in preparing for a Sommelier or WSET exam
Brainscape was an outstanding tool in helping me pass my sommelier exam. Yes, I read several great books on wine, but the Flashcard drills on Brainscape helped me lock in key facts.
