### Go Mental

Mental Case is The Study App — it is a tool designed specifically to help you learn. It doesn’t matter what you need to learn. It can be simple day-to-day facts like the name of a new colleague at work, or the date of your niece’s birthday. But it could also be of life changing importance, like studying for your high school finals, completing a medical or law degree, learning a new language, or getting your driver’s license. Whatever it is, Mental Case is the app for the job.

Mental Case is more than just a single app — it’s a whole suite. There are Mental Case apps for the Mac, iPad, and iPhone, and you can sync your mental notes over Wi-Fi between the Mac and other devices.

You enter what you want to study in the form of brief mental notes. These notes are similar to traditional flashcards, but are much more powerful. Each note is comprised of as many facets (‘sides’) as you like, and each facet can include text, an image, audio, and even video. Once you have a set of notes prepared, you can study them in beautifully-presented slideshows, which make studying less of a chore.

Mental Case also schedules your notes for study, based on your goals. For long-term learning, it uses spaced repetition, a scientifically-researched method which makes your study as efficient as possible. If you need to prepare for an exam in just a few days, there are short-term cramming schedulers for that too.

You don’t necessarily want to have to write all of your mental notes yourself. That’s why Mental Case comes with free access to FlashcardExchange.com and Quizlet.com, the largest online repositories of study cards. Search for notes on any topic you can imagine, and download with one click. There are also plenty of options for exporting your notes to share with others, whether they have Mental Case or not.
