The Leitner System: Dynamic Flashcard Revision Strategy

Published by: Professor FocusAurus · 2026-04-26
"How to use physical flashcard boxes to optimize revision and prioritize difficult concepts."

The Leitner System organizes flashcards into boxes based on correct answers. Box 1 cards are reviewed daily, Box 2 cards every two days, and Box 3 cards weekly. Correctly answered cards move up; incorrect cards drop back to Box 1. This study method ensures you spend focus time on your weakest concepts rather than reviewing easy ones.
