Hello,
I’m absolutly new to anki, but I learned with flash cards years before extremly succesfull.
Now I would like to use my learning system / algorithm which I know works well for me.
I want to switch to anki, because I restructuring myself to work completely digitally (because of the great number of cards).
Unfortunately, I feel a little lost in Anki’s settings - and would be extremely grateful and happy if someone could help me briefly about which settings I need to make and how.
My learning system (with physical cards, with 14 boxes) is working like this and that’s how I would like to configure anki:
(example with a new card)
-Starting always with level 1 cards, maximum 100 new cards:
-
First day (or next day)
New card (I call it level 1) must be answered 3 times correctly, doesn’t matter how often I answered wrong. Until the card is not answered 3 times correctly, the card is not leveling up. (the 3 correct answers must be after each other, so “right-wrong-right-right” does not count, but “wrong-right-right-right” count.) After this 3 correct answers the card becomes lvl 2. -
Second day (or next day)
Lvl 2 Card must be answered 3 times correctly to become level 3 card (again after each other). Wrong answers DON’T reset the card to a level 1 card. -
Third day (or next day)
Lvl 3 card must be answered 3 times correctly to become a level 4 card. If in this step one time the answere is wrong, the card becomes immediately a Level 1 card and is treated like a new card. -
Fifth day (or 1 day break)
The level 4 card must be answered 2 times correctly to become a level 5 card. If one answer is wrong, it becomes a lvl 3 card and is treated like on the third day. -
Seventh day (or 2 days break)
The lvl 5 card must be answered 1 time correctly to become a lvl 6 card. If one answer is wrong, it becomes a lvl 3 card and is treated like on third day
(for example: so if wrong on this point, the card is showed the next day again (like lvl3) with the task to answer it 3 times right, to go for lvl 4 and lvl 5 again with day breaks. If it’s unsuccessful on lvl 5 and the next day I can’t repeat it 3 times right, something went wrong with my medium-term memory and I better treat the card like a new one (lvl1).)
-
11th day (or 4 days break)
The level 6 card must be answered 1 time correctly to become a lvl 7 card. If it’s wrong it becomes a lvl 3 card. -
18th day (or 7 days break)
The level 7 card must be answered 3 times correctly to become a lvl 8 card. If it’s wrong it becomes a lvl 3 card. -
32nd day (or 14 days break)
The level 8 card must be answered 4 times. 3 answers from this 4 showed times must be right to become a lvl 9 card. If not the card becomes lvl 4. -
53rd day (or 3 weeks / 21 days break)
The lvl 9 card must be answered 2 times correctly to become a lvl 10 card. If not, the card becomes a lvl 5 card. -
63rd day (or 1 month / 4 weeks / 30 days break)
The lvl 10 card must be answered 3 times correctly to become lvl 11 card. If not, the card becomes a lvl 3 card, because something went wrong with my long-term memory. -
123rd day (or 2 month / 60 days break)
The lvl 11 card must be answered 4 times. 3 times it must be the correct answer to become lvl 12. If not the card becomes lvl 7. -
213rd day (or 3 month / 90 days break)
The lvl 12 card must be answered 2 times correctly to become a lvl 13 card. If not it becomes lvl 7. -
393rd day (or 6 month / 180 days break)
The lvl 13 card must be answered 1 time correctly to become lvl 14 card. If not it becomes lvl 7. -
753 day (or yearly repition deck)
The level 14 card is asked 7 times. 4 answers must be correct for staying a lvl 14 card. If 3 answers are correct it becomes lvl 10. If 2 or 1 answer is correct it becomes lvl 8. If I can’t remember anything after showed 7 times and no answer was right, it becomes lvl 6.
My first question is - is it possible to set this up with the standard deck settings of anki?
And if not, could someone help me to edit the algorithm? My coding skills aren’t spectacular yet and I don’t want to create fatal misstakes which then negatively affect my learning.
Thank you very, very much if you can help me & of course for your answers.
With kind regards.
