Phase 1 Flashcards - Active learning
Phase 1
Phase 1
Phase 1 is your first encounter in medical school: the preclinical years. Here, you will learn the basic science and textbook clinical decision making that will serve well in the clinic. As the student government, MSA is providing you comprehensive UWSMPH Phase 1 flash cards, called the Ruby Deck, which is a comprehensive Anki deck aligned with UWSMPH lecture content and learning objectives for all 5 of the blocks (PPP, BiB, FFF, HFT, I&D and M&M). The Ruby Deck is continuously refined through feedback from the entire class and is designed to evolve alongside the UWSMPH curriculum.
The Ruby Deck was created by the CollabSMPH, a student organization here at UWSMPH that is dedicated to fostering collaboration and creating open-source educational resources for medical students. Their mission is to address the limitations of outdated and inaccessible study materials by building a centralized, student-driven hub for shared learning.
To access the Ruby Deck and for more information about CollabSMPH, visit their website at https://collab.uwsmph.com/ for directions on how to download the AnkiCollab add-on and Ruby deck, as well as how to join our Discord server for regular updates on the deck!
***As a prerequisite, you must download Anki and make a Anki profile (if you want to test these following decks, make test profiles before importing into your main profile.) Then you can import the following .apkg. Make sure you have enough space on your computer and expect a long download time!
History of the UWSMPH Phase 1 Flash Cards
History of the UWSMPH Phase 1 Flash Cards
Before the Ruby Deck, there was the Fuzion Deck and Diamond Deck. Both Decks are free to download, but will not have updated curriculum material.
The first student created Anki Deck was called the Fuzion Deck. The Fuzion Deck followed the UWSMPH Phase 1 curriculum of 2020-21 comprehensively on a lecture-by-lecture basis. Please thank Class of 2023 Sahand Chase Eftekari for building the original "Legend" M1-year deck, Class of 2024 Cuong Luu (along with others) for updates and inclusion of M2-year content, and Class of 2026 Jinan Sous for contributing the PPP section of the deck.

Additionally, students from the class of 2026 have also made an updated Anki deck to reflect changes in the curriculum since the creation of the Fuzion Deck called the Diamond Deck. Jinan Sous (Class of 2026) has also graciously shared some pre-made Anki decks that correspond with Sketchy for I&D, which are integrated into the Diamond Deck.

Or you can get cute add-ons like Puppy Reinforcement.

Continuing from the Anki decks above, Phase 1 provides a core foundation of clinical knowledge for rotations, residency, and your eventual practice. Cody Johnson (Class of 2026) has graciously arranged AMBOSS practice question sets for each block. Follow the document below for the sets! Please also see the interactive AMBOSS x UWSMPH Checklist supplied by Amy Baltes!
Note: these question sets require a subscription for AMBOSS (to save your progress). These sets are not meant to be exhaustive, but rather supplementary to your studies. The Class of 2027 has found these questions very useful in preparing for exams and understanding potential clinical vignette questions. Enjoy!
