What it is
SAT flashcards turn a word, grammar rule or formula into a small recall task. PeakSAT offers ready-made decks and custom cards, with review dates that change after you rate recall. Try the front before revealing the back, then choose Again, Hard, Good or Easy. Those ratings update the card's next due date, so forgotten cards return sooner and established cards can wait longer. Use the due queue for short review sessions, then apply the same knowledge in a passage or a complete math problem.
How it helps
Review a specific recall target
Use vocabulary, grammar and formula decks, or make a custom card for a detail you want to remember.
Let ratings set the next review
Again adds a short relearning interval; the other ratings use the card's review history to schedule its return.
Keep review manageable
Open cards that are due, attempt recall and rate them rather than starting the entire deck from the beginning each time.
How it works
The steps you take in the PeakSAT app, in order.
- Step 1
Choose a deck or make a card
Start with a ready-made category or add your own front, back and tags for a particular study target.
- Step 2
Recall before revealing
Read the front, say or write your answer, then reveal the back to compare what you remembered.
- Step 3
Rate honestly and return when due
Choose Again, Hard, Good or Easy based on that attempt. PeakSAT saves a new due date for the card.
Illustrative example: Not real student data or live output
Illustrative workflow: remembering a grammar decision
This is an example of a custom card and its review steps, not a generated deck preview or a student result.
- Step 1
Create a card asking when a semicolon can join two clauses, with an answer that both clauses must be complete sentences.
- Step 2
Try recalling the rule before revealing it, then rate Again if you could not remember it.
- Step 3
Review it when it becomes due and apply the rule in a sentence-boundary practice question.
Who it’s for
Useful for short, repeated recall practice on words, conventions and formulas, including details you identify while reviewing questions.
Limits and access
Flashcards require paid access or an eligible trial. The schedule follows your ratings; it does not measure exactly when you will forget. Cards supplement passage reading and problem solving rather than replacing them.

Common questions
What do Again, Hard, Good and Easy change?
They change the card's next review date using its rating and review history. Again uses a short relearning step; stronger recall ratings can move the next review farther away.
Can I make my own SAT flashcards?
Yes. Add a front, a back and tags, and review your cards alongside the ready-made vocabulary, grammar and formula categories.
Are flashcards enough for Words in Context questions?
No. A card can help you recall a meaning or distinction, but you still need to use the surrounding passage to decide which word fits. Practice the skill in context as well.
