Why transcribing MCAT classes isn’t enough
Many students think having a word-for-word record of their MCAT prep is the key to a high score. In reality, a raw transcript of a 3-hour Organic Chemistry or CARS strategy session is just more noise. You don't need a wall of text; you need to find the high-yield concepts quickly without re-watching hours of video.
If you only transcribe MCAT classes without a system to process them, you face three major hurdles:
Information Overload: Sifting through thousands of words to find one specific enzyme pathway is a waste of study time.
Passive Learning: Reading a transcript is passive. Without active recall, the complex physiological processes won't stick in your long-term memory.
Disconnected Data: Your lecture notes exist separately from your practice questions and flashcards, making it harder to connect related concepts across biology and physics.
Quick win: Use the search function in your transcript to jump directly to specific keywords like "Le Châtelier's principle" or "Action Potential" to save 20 minutes of scrubbing through audio.
Common mistake: Spending hours manually formatting a transcript into a Word doc instead of letting AI generate structured study blocks immediately.

Example: Automatically generated cards for the steps of Glycolysis or Citric Acid Cycle enzymes.
Best for: Memorizing equations and vocabulary.
Best for: Long-term retention using spaced repetition.
Practice quiz (active recall)
Test your understanding before the actual MCAT. Our AI creates practice questions based on the specific content covered in your recorded classes.
Example: A 10-question quiz on Electrolyte Balance generated from your last Biology prep session.
Best for: Identifying knowledge gaps.
Best for: Simulating exam-day pressure.
Key questions / action items
Identify the core questions your instructor posed during the session and the specific tasks you need to complete to master the material.
Example: A checklist of practice problems to solve or specific chapters to cross-reference after class.
Best for: Staying organized during a busy prep season.
Best for: Ensuring no "must-know" topic is missed.
Quick win: Generate your flashcards immediately after you transcribe MCAT classes while the context is fresh in your mind.
Common mistake: Ignoring the practice quiz feature. Testing yourself is 3x more effective than re-reading the transcript.
How it works
Upload: Record your MCAT class on your phone or computer and upload the file to Duetoday. We support audio, video, and even YouTube links.
Process: Our AI will transcribe MCAT classes in minutes, automatically generating a structured summary, flashcards, and a practice quiz.
Master: Use the chat-based AI tutor to ask questions about the lecture or use the study tools to memorize the hardest concepts.
Checklist before you upload
Check that the audio file is clear and audible.
Label your file with the subject and date (e.g., "MCAT-Orgo-Oct5").
Ensure you have any accompanying PDFs or slides ready to upload for extra context.
Decide which study output (Flashcards vs. Summary) you need most for your next session.
Quick win: If your teacher uses a whiteboard, take photos and upload them as PDFs alongside your audio for a complete context loop.
Common mistake: Waiting a week to upload. Transcribe your classes within 24 hours to reinforce memory while the visuals are still fresh.
