Illustrative study example

A paragraph becomes a focused question

Source note

Opportunity cost is the value of the best alternative forgone when you make a choice.

Question

You choose an hour of study instead of a paid shift. What is the opportunity cost?

Example answer

The value of the best alternative you gave up, such as the pay from that shift.

Example prepared for this guide. Your result depends on your source material and should be checked against it.

From material to practice

  1. 1. Bring one PDF

    Start with a chapter or lecture you want to review. In Ozard, open the flashcard tool and add your PDF. Choose a readable file and check that essential diagrams and equations are clear.

  2. 2. Check the generated cards

    Compare definitions, notation and exceptions with the original file. AI-generated answers can be incomplete. Keep the source nearby and split questions that ask too many things at once.

  3. 3. Recall, then reveal

    Answer before looking at the other side of the card. Return to the ideas you missed, and add a course problem when you need to practise applying the knowledge.

Use cards for definitions, comparisons and short explanations. Keep full derivations and detailed diagrams in your source notes; one card should not try to replace a chapter.

Before you start

Can I use my own lecture notes?
Yes. The PDF flashcard workflow uses the material you add. Review the generated questions against your lecture notes before relying on them.
Will every card be correct?
AI can misread or omit information. Check answers, units and course-specific assumptions against the original PDF. Do not treat a generated answer as a substitute for your source.
