Pathology now has exactly the bricks on this year's Foundations of Pathology To-Do pages, 28 lectures across three weeks. The older lectures this year's course merged into its two consolidated bricks are retired, along with hemodynamics, thrombosis and a few duplicate copies, so each session lists only what you're assigned. That applies across the Pathology QBank (now 1,008 questions), the drag-and-drop games (117), the picture bank and picture-match game, and the Pro Advanced tier. Saved progress on the remaining questions is unaffected.
The Pathology tools were laid out in last year's course order, and this year's M1 course reshuffled and consolidated several bricks. Two first-year students sent their Week 1–3 To-Do lists, and the Pathology QBank, games, picture bank and picture-match game now follow that schedule session by session. It opens with histology, then injury, the environment and autopsy, inflammation and repair, infection and immunity, and neoplasia. The new Cancer Growth, Metastasis, and Medications Overview brick is in too (36 questions, 4 games), alongside today's histology and immune-disease additions. Older bricks whose material this year's course folded into a consolidated lecture sit right after it in the same session, so nothing was lost. Hemodynamics and thrombosis, which this year's course doesn't include, are under “More topics”. Your progress carries over.
This year's Foundations of Pathology course added lectures the Pathology QBank didn't have, as a first-year student pointed out. Five are now in: Introduction to Histology and Connective Tissue; Histology of Muscle and Nervous Tissue; Histology of Epithelial Tissue (parts 1 and 2); and the consolidated Pathologic Manifestations of Infectious and Immune-related Diseases. Each has 36 questions (a core 12 plus 24 more behind “+24”, free with an account) and four drag-and-drop games. The histology lectures open Week 1 as their own group, and the new immune-disease brick sits with the infection and transplant topics in Week 2. The QBank now has 1,404 questions and the games set 169.
A student flagged a BOOM question whose stem called the patient's condition “a peroxisomal disorder” and then asked which organelle was defective (answer: peroxisome). The earlier check for answers restated in the stem compared whole words, so “peroxisomal” slipped past “peroxisome”. It now compares word roots, and a pass over every QBank and picture bank found 37 more questions that gave away their answer this way. Each one now leaves the answer to be worked out. One Microbiology question, on which blood test to send for invasive aspergillosis, had two defensible answers and was retired. In the Respiratory QBank's Weeks 4–5, symbols such as β, γ, ° and em dashes had been displaying as junk characters (“IFN-γ”). All 387 of them now read correctly.
The Repro QBank and ReproStudy now cover the rest of the course. Week 5 adds uncomplicated and complicated labor and delivery, birth outcomes, TORCH infections, fetal and postnatal circulation, postnatal care (both parts), and neonatal assessment with pediatric milestones. Week 6 adds benign breast disorders, breast cancer classification and pathogenesis, presentation and management, and screening. Each of the 12 lectures has 36 questions: a core 12 that covers the whole lecture, plus 24 more behind “+24” (free with an Active Transport account). They sit under their own Week 5 and Week 6 sessions, in the order of the Canvas To-Do pages. The same answer-bias checks as the rest of the bank apply. ReproStudy gained 48 drag-and-drop games for the same lectures.
Following the QBanks, every other Secondary Active Transport tool is now laid out in class order, grouped by Week and Session as on each course's Canvas To-Do pages. That covers the picture QBanks, the Picture Match games (whose brick menu was alphabetical), every drag-and-drop index and the Renal QBank's brick grid. In the combined Cardiopulmonary tools, Cardio's weeks come first and Resp's follow, the order the courses ran. Searching a games index hides any week or session left empty. Nothing was added or removed, and progress carries over.
The topics in the Secondary Active Transport QBanks were grouped by theme (Cardiac Physiology, Antibacterial Pharmacology, and so on), which rarely matched the order you actually meet them in class. Some banks were close, and others were nowhere near. Every QBank is now laid out Week by Week and Session by Session, in the same order as each course's pre-session To-Do pages on Canvas: Blood & Lymph, BOOM, Cardiovascular, Endocrine, GI, Immunology, Microbiology, Pathology, Pharmacology, Repro and Respiratory. Each week has a header with its topic and question counts, so revising one week means opening one group. The drag-and-drop game sets that were out of order (BOOM, Blood & Lymph, Endocrine, Pathology, Pharmacology) were renumbered to match. Nothing was added or removed, and your saved progress, bookmarks and scores all carry over.
Each QBank topic opens with its core questions, enough to cover the lecture. The deeper set behind each topic's “+24” now needs an Active Transport sign-in. A free account is enough; it doesn't need Pro. That covers about 7,300 questions across Repro, Immunology, Pharmacology, Pathology, BOOM, Blood & Lymph and Microbiology. If you're signed in and open a QBank from your Active Transport home page, nothing changes: the extras load exactly as before. If you aren't, “+24” explains how to unlock them instead. The core questions stay open to everyone, and your saved progress is untouched either way.
A student pointed out a Repro question about a girl with an ovarian yolk sac tumor. The stem said her serum alpha-fetoprotein was markedly elevated, then asked which serum marker to follow for recurrence, and the answer was alpha-fetoprotein. The September sweep for answers echoing their stem had seen this one and let it through as “the subject of the question”. A stricter check across every QBank for answers whose distinctive words all appear in the stem turned up four more of the same kind, in BOOM (an alcohol-metabolism ratio, a dietary reference value) and Pharmacology (a CYP enzyme, a mirabegron side effect). All five stems now leave the answer to be worked out. The other items that check flagged were cases where the stem legitimately lists every option, such as a medication list or a set of lab values, so those were left alone.
Two requests from a student using the Study Inbox. First, it filled up too fast: the extension files one reading per brick, so anyone reading a whole block overran the old 20-item limit within a week or two, and older readings disappeared before they got to them. The inbox now keeps your 60 most recent readings for 30 days (up from 20 for 14), and the Recently read shelf shows all of them in a scrolling list with a count, instead of only the newest six. Second, you can now build one quiz or Anki deck from several readings. Tick the ones you want (up to 10) and press “Use together”. They are combined oldest-first, each under its own title, and questions are spread across all of them in proportion to their length, so a short brick still gets its share. The single-reading “Use” button works as before.
The Repro QBank and ReproStudy now cover all four weeks of Reproductive Systems and Breast Health. Twenty new bricks from Weeks 3 and 4 were added: vulvovaginitis, urethritis/cervicitis/PID, orchitis and epididymitis, gonorrhea and chlamydia, HIV, herpes and genital warts, syphilis and the other ulcerative STIs, cervical cancer and vulvar pathology in Week 3; the placenta, uncomplicated pregnancy, pregnancy complications, abortion care, pregnancy's effects on other organ systems, gestational diabetes, hypertension in pregnancy, gestational trophoblastic disease, social determinants of sexual and reproductive health, gender-based violence and trauma-informed care, and sexual and reproductive health and rights in Week 4. Each new lecture has 36 questions, and its core 12 were written to cover the whole lecture at a realistic difficulty mix rather than just the easy recall, with the other 24 behind the usual “+24”. The same checks as the rest of the bank apply: answers spread evenly across A through E, no answer giving itself away by length or by echoing the question, and no duplicated stems. ReproStudy gained 79 drag-and-drop games for the same lectures. Existing games keep their numbers, so your bookmarks and progress are unaffected.
Every topic in the Year 1 QBanks served all of its questions, so covering one meant sitting all 36 whether or not you wanted that much. Each topic now starts with the core questions that cover it — the 12 the lecture originally shipped with — and carries a small “+24” next to it. Click that and the topic serves its full set instead. There are shortcuts for a whole category and for the whole bank, and the counts follow your choice, so a topic reading “12/12 left” really does hand you twelve questions. Nothing was removed: the extra questions are all still there, just behind one click instead of always in the queue. Topics with nothing extra to offer simply don't show the control. Live in Repro, Immunology, Pharmacology, Pathology, BOOM, Blood & Lymph, Endocrine and Microbiology.
A reader flagged a hypospadias question where the stem described a urethral opening on the ventral surface and a penis curving ventrally — and the correct answer was the only option that mentioned the ventral midline. You could get it right by matching the word, without knowing any embryology. Checking for that pattern across every bank turned up about 1,100 questions where the answer repeated a distinctive word from its stem that no wrong option shared. Each one was judged individually and, where the repetition really did hand over the answer, fixed by renaming the key to an equally standard term, giving the wrong options the same word, or rewording the stem — never by making the correct answer vaguer. Questions where the repeated word was simply the subject everyone was talking about were left alone. The same reader also caught a question asking whether a patient “meets criteria” without ever saying criteria for what; a sweep for that found only one other instance, and both now name the diagnosis in the question itself. Answer letters remain evenly spread A through E, and no correct answer is the longest option.
The shelf of readings on your Generate page was drawn once when the page loaded, so if you sent a brick over from another tab — or the extension captured one while you read — it sat there invisible until you thought to reload. It keeps itself current now. Send a page across and it appears at the top of the shelf on its own, with a brief highlight so you notice it arrive. Switching back to the Generate tab also refreshes it immediately, since “send it, then switch back” is how this usually goes.
Open “More options” with Anki cards selected and you used to get every control and four paragraphs of fine print stacked in one long column at the same visual weight — target count, card type, five priority sliders, back-card detail, format, two color pickers and a font-size slider, with nothing to tell you which of those actually mattered. It is now grouped into labelled sections, the long explanations moved into the small “i” tooltips, and everything with a good default — back-card detail, file format, card colors, font size — sits behind a collapsed “Card style & format” row that shows your current picks without being opened. Card type is a segmented control now, and the priority sliders only light up the ones you have actually moved, so five rows at their defaults read as quiet rather than as five decisions waiting on you. The whole panel fits on one screen where it used to need a scroll. Nothing changed about what gets generated — every setting is still there, just not all shouting at once.
Microbiology had games and a picture bank but never a question bank, which was an odd gap in a subject this heavy on detail. It has one now: 1,872 NBME-style questions drawn from all 52 bricks, 36 per lecture, organized into eleven categories — bacterial foundations and lab identification, gram-positives, gram-negatives, mycobacteria and atypicals, antibacterial pharmacology, virology, antivirals and antiretrovirals, mycology, antifungals, parasitology, and antiparasitic agents. It was written with the anti-bias rules built in from the start rather than retrofitted, so the correct answer sits evenly across A through E and never gives itself away by being the longest option. Find it under Year 1 → Microbiology on your home page.
Two test-taking tells are gone from all seven Secondary Active Transport QBanks. The answer choices used to sit in the order they were written, which parked the correct answer on A far more often than chance — 62% of the time in Immunology, 49% in Repro. Choices are now ordered by their own text (numeric options by value), so where the key lands follows from the wording alone: every bank now sits near an even 20% per letter. The second tell was length — if the longest option looked suspiciously like the right one, that's because it often was. Nearly 900 questions where the key towered over its distractors have been rewritten, always by making the wrong answers as specific as the right one, never by watering down the key. Alongside that, the Blood & Lymph QBank grew from 718 questions to 2,136: 24 new ones per lecture covering what the original set skipped. Your saved progress and scores carry over.
Same treatment the Repro QBank got yesterday, now for Year 1 immunology. Every one of the 23 immunology bricks has 36 questions instead of 12: the original dozen plus 24 written to cover what they skipped — the secondary details, the clinical correlations, the tables, the numbers and thresholds, and the contrasts between look-alike entities (two cytokines, two hypersensitivity types, two inborn errors). No duplicated stems anywhere in the bank, every question passes the same key-alignment and longest-answer checks as before, and your saved progress carries over untouched. Find it under Year 1 → Immunology on your home page.
Twelve questions per lecture turned out to be a sampler, not a review. Every one of the 29 repro bricks now has 36 questions: the original dozen plus 24 written specifically to cover what they skipped — the secondary details, the clinical correlations, the bricks' own tables, the numbers and thresholds they state, and the contrasts between look-alike entities. Nothing was watered down to get there: no duplicated stems anywhere in the bank, and every question still passes the same quality gates. Filter by week and session as before; there's simply a lot more to work through now.
A student who sent a brick through the Study Inbox extension got quiz questions about the page itself — "Who is the namesake of the school?" — because the capture included the website's banner and the generator dutifully treated it as study material. Fixed at every layer: the extension now strips page furniture before sending (v1.4.0), the server strips it again from any source, a new quality gate rejects questions about institutions, platforms, or authors, and the handful of these questions that reached the shared bank have been retired. Thanks to the student who sent the screenshot.
Reproductive Systems and Breast Health begins tomorrow — and its study tools are already on the shelf. The new Repro QBank carries 348 NBME-style questions from all 29 assigned bricks across the first two weeks (anatomy and histology through ovarian, uterine, testicular, and prostate pathology), organized by week and session, with the exam skins and account sync you know from the other QBanks. Alongside it: ReproStudy, 116 drag-and-drop games covering the same lectures. Find both under Year 2 on your home page — free for the whole class, with more weeks added as the course releases them.
A 20-question Master quiz was delivering 9 — Master Mode generates every question fresh (no qbank pulls), and on slow-API days the multi-question generation calls were all timing out together, leaving just the fast opener. Generation now backfills any shortfall with a wave of single-question calls (the fast, reliable kind), timeouts got real margin, and mastery-check writing no longer cancels requests that were seconds from finishing. If your Master quiz came up short today, that was this.
Three fixes from a real 18-concept session. The chip row at the top is now a thin progress strip along the bottom of the screen — each concept is a segment that goes from dark to amber to green, so finishing literally fills the bar. A rare stall where the quiz sat on "writing your next mastery check" indefinitely is fixed at the root, plus a watchdog now revives any concept whose questions got lost in transit. And Master Mode now sets its own quiz length from your material (about one seed question per 200 words) — since every miss adds questions, the starting count isn't something to crank by hand.
In Tutor and Master modes, clicking the ✕ to cross out an answer choice could register as selecting that choice — the worst possible interpretation of "I've ruled this out." Cross-out clicks are now fully insulated from answering, in every mode. The thumbs-up/down question rating has also been retired; the Report button on each question remains the way to flag problems.
Active Transport — Study Inbox is now one click to install from the Chrome Web Store (find the Add to Chrome button on the Generate page). Send any page you're reading to your study inbox from the toolbar; on ScholarRx, let it auto-capture each brick after 30 seconds of reading and watch your Recently Read shelf fill itself. Store installs update automatically, so improvements land without reinstalling. If you grabbed the earlier zip version, remove it in chrome://extensions and install from the store instead.
A hypoparathyroidism rationale called basal ganglia calcification "a manifestation of longstanding hypocalcemia." As a student pointed out, the mechanism is really the high calcium-phosphate deposition burden of low PTH — hypocalcemia with phosphate retention — so it belongs to hypoparathyroidism specifically, not low calcium in general. The rationale now says exactly that. Fifth catch from the same reporter, and the sharpest one yet: this wasn't a wrong answer or a typo, it was an imprecise mechanism.
A hypoparathyroidism question described a post-thyroidectomy patient as having "florid tetany." A sharp-eyed student looked the phrase up and found it isn't an established term — and she was right about its origin too: the source lecture says plain "tetany," and the flourish was added in generation. ("Florid" is real medical vocabulary — florid duct lesions keep their name in the pathology bank — but this pairing isn't standard, and the question's acute-versus-chronic contrast never needed it.) Same reporter as the growth-hormone, 72-hour-fast, and metabolic-syndrome catches. The QA department remains undefeated.
The bookmarklet grew up. The new Active Transport Chrome extension (download it from the Generate page) sends any page to your study inbox in one click from the toolbar — and on ScholarRx, it can quietly capture each brick after 30 seconds of reading, so by the time you finish a study session your Recently Read shelf already lists everything you covered, one click from questions or Anki cards. Auto-capture only ever runs on brick pages, can be switched off in the popup, and the extension talks to nothing but activetransport.app.
Master Mode no longer cares which difficulty you picked — it calibrates itself. Seed questions come at NBME depth, and when you miss a concept, the follow-ups climb a ladder: an Application vignette with a fresh clinical surface, then a multi-step Reasoning bridge (mechanism, complication, or next step). Miss the same concept a third time and you get one Foundation check to rebuild the base fact before the reasoning resumes. Each mastery check is labeled with its level, so you can see exactly how deep you've proven yourself.
A third quiz mode joins Test and Tutor, for Pro users. In Master Mode every question is a concept on a chip bar. Get it right first try and the chip goes green. Miss it, and two brand-new questions on that exact concept — written against the mistake you actually made — are added to your quiz a few questions ahead. Mastering a missed concept takes two correct answers in a row on fresh questions, a new miss adds another, and the quiz won't let you finish until every chip is green. Miss the same concept three times and it pauses to teach before re-testing. If you reach the end, you didn't just take a quiz — you closed every gap it found.
New on the Generate page: a Send to Active Transport bookmarklet. Drag it to your bookmarks bar, and when you finish reading a brick or a lecture page, one click sends its text to your account — it even resolves ScholarRx fill-in-the-blank words. Sent pages appear in a Recently Read shelf on the Generate page, one click from becoming a quiz or an Anki deck. No more juggling tabs and pasting walls of text. Your sent text is private to you and auto-deletes after two weeks.
The Microbiology games page used to open straight into the antifungal game — which hid the fact that there were eight other games in there, and left nothing dedicated to antibiotics. It's now a real index with 71 new drag-and-drop games built from the antimicrobial pharmacology lectures: a full Antibiotics section (penicillins through stewardship), a Spectrum & Coverage section for which-drug-covers-which-bug, plus Antivirals, Antifungals, and Antiparasitics — and all the original games under Classics. Requested by a student who was struggling with the antibiotics; this one's for her.
The Endocrine QBank and Study Games now cover the block's final session: Obesity & Metabolic Syndrome, and Fighting the Diabetes Epidemic (diabetes self-care and patient partnership). That's 24 new NBME-style questions (396 total) and 8 new drag-and-drop games (132 total) — hunger hormones, metabolic syndrome criteria, obesity pharmacotherapy, bariatric surgery, the Diabetes Self-Care 7, carb counting, and more. A note of correction: for about a day this update mistakenly contained kidney and urinary-tract questions from the wrong source material — that content has been removed, and this is the real Week 4. Same free tools, same exam skins, same account sync.
A metabolic-syndrome question listed the patient's HDL cholesterol in the stem, then offered a different HDL value as the correct "additional finding" — you can't newly discover a lab the vignette already reported. The stem now gives only waist circumference, triglycerides, blood pressure, and glucose, so the low HDL in the answer really is the third criterion. We also swept every QBank for other stem-versus-answer lab conflicts and found none. Third catch this week from the same student — the merch is earned.
An Endocrine QBank answer described the supervised 72-hour fast as being "with glucose and insulin every 6 hours" — which reads like you'd be giving both to a patient you're trying to catch being hypoglycemic. It means the levels are measured every 6 hours, and now it says so. Thanks to the same sharp-eyed student who caught the growth hormone error yesterday.
An Endocrine QBank question claimed growth hormone is released only during REM sleep. In reality GH is secreted in brief pulses around the clock — smaller and sparser during the day, largest during slow-wave sleep — which is exactly why a single random level can't establish deficiency. The answer and rationale now say so. The wrong claim came straight from a lecture slide, so the question passed source-checking; it took a student who knew better. Thanks to her for the report.
Every Secondary Active Transport tool now carries a small pill on its home page: green "Signed in" when your answers are syncing to your account, amber "Not signed in" when they're saving to this browser only — and the amber pill is a one-click path to signing in. It stays out of the way while you're inside a quiz or an exam skin. No more finishing forty questions before discovering they were never going to follow you to your other device.
In every Secondary Active Transport QBank, reviewing your incorrect questions had a frustrating quirk: get one right this time and it jumped straight to the next question without showing the rationale. The review list was quietly dropping the question the moment you redeemed it. The list you're working through now holds still until you leave, so every answer shows its full explanation.
The mark beside Active Transport is now literally the transporter from the loading screen - the same drawing, scaled down. A substrate molecule is pumped up from below the membrane, through the pore, and released off the turning head as ATP: it goes in blue, disappears while the protein has it, and comes out orange - the same handoff the loading screen makes. The tab and home-screen icons were a completely different drawing; they are now the same transporter, redrawn for each size so it still reads at 16 pixels. Reduced-motion settings hold the mark still.
Each topic now shows how many questions you have left in it rather than how many it holds, and a topic you have finished greys out and says Complete. Starting a quiz serves only what you have not answered yet — pick a topic you are 6 of 12 through and you get those 6. Select All skips finished topics, so it queues up what is left instead of everything. Reset Progress in the QBank is still there if you want to take a topic again.
The Secondary Active Transport QBanks used to remember your progress in one browser only — open one on your phone and you started from nothing. Sign in and it now follows your account across devices, so the exam skins' scored palette and running percentage reflect everything you've done rather than just this laptop. Your home page also shows what you've answered in each tool. Still free, still no login needed to use them; signing in is what makes them remember you.
Some generated questions asked for a group — "which three enzymes are disrupted", "which amino acids accumulate" — but offered one member per option, so several answers were equally correct. Those are now rejected before they reach you, along with any question whose own explanation admits a wrong answer is also right. Thanks to the student who reported two of them in one sitting and worked out exactly what was going wrong.
The question palette down the left now scores itself as you go — filled green for right, hollow red for wrong, with the question you're on keeping its ring. The header adds a running "N answered · P% correct". Only the current sitting is scored, so starting a quiz doesn't open on a wall of old red.
Examplify's dark setting is now a skin of its own in every Secondary Active Transport QBank, alongside the Examplify and NBME skins — same layout, charcoal field, easier on the eyes at 1am. Pick it on the QBank's home page. Thanks to the student who suggested it.
Two kinds of unanswerable card are gone. Cards that hid the whole thing — "GH excess increases the risk of [...]" — now leave the category showing, so it reads "the risk of [...] cancer" and you know what's being asked: [...] syndrome, [...] deficiency, [...] carcinoma, and so on. And cards whose sentence gave you nothing to aim at, like "GH excess can lead to [...]", which has a dozen right answers, are no longer written at all; the deck fills the space with a real card instead.
Resuming an unfinished quiz re-opened it blank from the first question, losing every answer you'd already given. Your answers are now saved as you make them, and resuming puts them back and drops you at the first question you haven't done yet. Because they save as you go rather than when you close the tab, a closed tab, a flat battery or a crash won't cost you the quiz either.
Endocrine joins Secondary Active Transport: 372 practice questions and 124 drag-and-drop games, written from all 31 lectures of the Year 2 Endocrine block and organised the way the course runs — pituitary, thyroid, parathyroid and bone, adrenal, and the endocrine pancreas through to the diabetes emergencies. Free with any account, on your home page under Endocrine.
The eye beside each answer now works: click it to rule that option out — it's struck through and dimmed — and click again to bring it back. Ruling an option out doesn't answer the question, so you can narrow the field first the way you would in the real software. Your cross-outs clear once you answer.
A second pass on the Examplify Skin, worked from a full-resolution screenshot of the real item view: the flag pill is outlined until you flag a question and fills orange once you do, the options are full-round pills with the answer range printed above them, and the question palette fills in as you go — solid for what you've seen, a ring for where you are. The NBME Skin now keeps its item number and Mark control in their own band under the header, the way the board interface does.
Every Secondary Active Transport QBank now has an Examplify Skin and an NBME Skin — practise in an interface built to match the software you actually sit exams in, down to the layout: Examplify's left-hand question palette, flag pill and pale blue navigation bar, or the NBME item bar with its Mark checkbox. Pick a skin on the QBank's home page; it's free with any Active Transport account, so open the QBank from the hub while signed in.
If your notes contained a heading like a summary chart or a comparison table, the generator could write questions about the chart itself — what it's for, who it's aimed at — instead of the medicine underneath it. Those headings are now stripped before generation, and any question that asks about a document's formatting is rejected. Thanks to the student who reported five of them in one sitting.
While your questions generate, the membrane now spans the screen with the transporter working in it, the substrate streams rather than blinking on a rail, and the whole scene pulses as each ATP is released. It also tells you what it's doing — the live stage while a quiz builds, and a note that it's still working when a long document takes a while.
A recent change had decks covering the same concept twice in different words. Repeats are now caught three ways: when the deck's concepts are chosen, after the cards are written, and by a final pass that reads the finished deck and spots repeats even when the wording shares nothing. Removed repeats are backfilled with real cards, so your deck doesn't shrink. Thanks to the student who reported this.
Cards like "Adrenaline release [...], raises blood pressure" hid both the direction and the thing affected, so you only learned the question after flipping. Blanks now show their options wherever the answer is one of a known set — [increases or decreases], [gram-positive or gram-negative], [obstructive or restrictive], [autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive or X-linked] and many more — with a short category hint elsewhere. Hints are left off only for the headline fact a card exists to test, so a card naming a diagnosis is never reduced to picking acute or chronic.
Answer choices are shuffled for every student, but the per-choice bars were counted by position — so picks from different shufflings were pooled together and the percentages were meaningless. Picks are now matched by the answer itself. The old counts couldn't be untangled, so they've been cleared and the bars will rebuild as questions get answered; your scores and accuracy were never affected.
If the server was redeployed or restarted while your questions were still being written, the quiz stopped early — you might ask for 16 and get 7, with a "stopped loading" notice. The page now reconnects and finishes the missing questions automatically instead of giving up.
On the Anki deck-priority sliders, the recommendation button now looks like the action it is until you use it, then settles into "Recommendation applied" so you can see at a glance that the sliders already hold it. Move any slider — or change your notes — and it comes back.
Across all the study-tool QBanks (including every Picture QBank), correct answers that were noticeably longer than the other choices have been tightened — over 1,300 of them — so answer length no longer gives anything away. Wording and meaning are unchanged.
In the study-tool drag-n-drop games, X-vs-Y comparisons (Crohn vs UC, the groin hernias, acute vs chronic inflammation, and ten more) now have the things being compared as the big drop boxes, with their features sorted underneath — the way you actually think about them. Thanks to the students who suggested it.
The recommendation button on Anki generation now actually reads your notes with AI — pasted text or an uploaded PDF/TXT — and sets the priority sliders to match what your document contains.
New priority sliders on deck generation: weight diseases, tables, numbers, mechanisms and treatment from Skip to Focus, and the deck follows your mix.
Long documents were silently losing their final sections — the last learning objectives and end-of-document tables never became cards. Decks now draw cards evenly from the first page to the last.
A progress bar shows while your deck builds, and 30+ card decks no longer time out.
Questions pulled from the qbank now match on the meaning and specifics of your notes, not coarse topic labels.
Every question in the QBank now carries per-choice rationales (up from 89%), and an audit of the remainder found and repaired 261 defective questions — re-keyed, rewritten, or retired. Thank you to everyone who reported questions; most of the fixes started from your reports.
An Anki-style picker for your review queue: filter by organ system and discipline, and suspend topics you don't want yet.
