You read a concept. You understand it.
But a few days later… you forget.
This is the "forgetting curve" in action—and it's every CFA Level 1 student’s nightmare.
It’s frustrating. You study hard, but when revision time comes, things feel fuzzy. And with the exam getting closer, that pressure builds up fast.
What if there was a way to break this cycle—and actually remember what you study?
That’s where MasterCFA Flashcards come in. They’re fast, smart, and built to help you remember better.
Step-by-Step: How to Master Your Weak Areas Using Flashcards
1️. Start with Your Weaknesses
Open the MasterCFA app and start a flashcard session.
Pick topics where you feel unsure—like Quant, FRA, or Ethics.
2️. Review One Key Concept at a Time
Each flashcard shows one simple, high-yield point—like a formula, definition, or principle.
You swipe right if you know it, left if you don’t.
Simple? Yes. But powerful. This breaks large chapters into bite-sized pieces your brain can absorb.
3️. Let Spaced Repetition Do the Work
The flashcards are powered by a smart algorithm.
It automatically brings back cards you struggled with at the right time, reinforcing what you tend to forget.
This method is called spaced repetition, and it’s scientifically proven to fight the forgetting curve.
4️. Revise Anywhere, Anytime
Whether you're on the metro, waiting in line, or taking a break—your phone becomes a study tool.
MasterCFA’s flashcards are designed for on-the-go learning.
Open the app and knock out 10–15 cards anytime you have a spare minute.
5️. Track Your Progress & Stay Confident
As you keep swiping, the app tracks your performance.
You’ll clearly see topics getting stronger and weaker areas shrinking.
This helps you walk into the exam room calm, confident, and fully prepped.
