Exam prep Listen, repeat, remember

Study for exams by listening to your notes

Before an exam, the challenge is rarely a lack of material. It's finding time to go through it all again. SiftNow turns your notes, textbook pages, and screenshots into review audio you can replay in spare minutes, with the focus on what you can't afford to forget.

Save the items you want to keep, then use Today Review and the Review Overview to go back over them together. It's a way to add extra passes on definitions, vocabulary, and key points during a commute, a walk, or before bed.

Why audio helps before exams

More passes over the material, without more desk time.

Near an exam, the number of times you review often matters as much as how long each session is. Audio makes short, repeated sessions easy.

Key points first

Hear the essentials before anything else.

Key Points lets you cover what matters even on a day when you're short on time.

Review together

Collect saved items into one review.

Combine several notes and handouts into a single listening session with the Review Overview.

Fits short gaps

Use lunch breaks and commutes.

Any spare ten minutes can become another pass over your material.

Typical uses

When audio review helps most.

Language test vocabulary

Listen to word lists and key expressions on the way to class instead of only flipping through flashcards.

Definitions and classifications

Go over memorization-heavy topics by ear before bed as a light extra pass.

Your own notes, all in one place

Bring scattered notes together and replay them as one review in the days before the exam.
