Thanks again, and we appreciate your understanding!

Easy to use and to make my own flashcards
Easy to use and to make my own flashcards, and then to use those flashcards as a study tool. I had some issues at the beginning, but it was all my error and customer service was responsive and quite helpful, walking me through the process of aligning my laptop with my phone app.

Meets diverse needs - from studying to interviewing!
Brainscape has been a great way to study ! Not just for students (my kiddo is in a battle of the books competition!) but adults learning new concepts or even interviewing. I love how it learns where your gaps and opportunities are, revisiting those more frequently!
