jMemorize is a Java application that manages your flashcards by the famous Leitner system and makes memorizing facts not only more efficient but also more fun. jMemorize manages your whole learning progress and features statistics, categories and a visually appealing and intuitive interface.

The basic idea is to divide the cards into different decks depending on the difficulty they present to you. This is done by repetitive quizzes in which you try to answer the question out of your mind. Every time you know the correct answer to a card, it is put on the next higher card deck. If you fail at a card, it is put back to the starting deck.

This system is combined with time schedules. Cards that have been known, are considered to be learned until a specific expiration date has passed. The higher the deck, the more far away the expiration date is set.

For example might a card that has been successfully checked for the first time be scheduled to be relearned one day later again, while a card that has been correctly answered three times in a row might be considered as learned for about week. As long as a card is considered learned, it wont appear in learn sessions.

As a whole, this system manages your personal learn sessions and allows you to focus on learning, while it automatically decides which facts should be learned right now to make the most out of your time.

Here are some key features of "jMemorize":
Create, edit, remove and reset cards.

What's New in This Release:
The new version is out! A lot of work went into improving the import functionality.
