    Instead of typing, you could add the Uworld explanation you need into a flashcard (select text - right-click - put in flashcard) and then copy-paste into Anki.

    • @MayGao
      @MayGao  3 года назад +1

      Don’t worry about the UWorld percentages! It’s definitely not expected to get in the 90% for UWorld (I pretty much never did). Your percentage also may highly depend on the number of questions you’re doing at a time. The point is, focus on learning and gauge your preparation from AAMC material.
