This brilliant [[Vet_Revise|flash card program]] has been developed by Matthew Dobson, a 4th year veterinary student at the Royal Veterinary College. Vet Revise is a sophisticated flashcard program which uses a system similar to [http://ankisrs.net/ Anki], which is a lot more efficient than traditional study methods. It not only greatly decreases your time spent studying but also increases the amount you learn. Matthew has recently been selected as a leading [http://elevator.jisc.ac.uk/sosi14/ideas/vet-revise-smarter-way-study Student Innovator] in the UK. The program has been developed for vet students and now includes over 80,000 flashcards.
