Selected User Reviews For Oxford Neon Index Cards, 3" x 5", Ruled, Assorted Colors, 300 Per Pack (81300EE)
First and foremost, I'd like to state that I received more cards than I anticipated. Do not be fooled by the stock photo. A standard stack of index cards is divided into three packs. I'm not sure what the other reviews are talking about when they say they're flimsy. They aren't even close to being as thin as a sheet of paper. br>br>In addition, the cards are colorful. I'm talking about bright as a highlighter. That's great for flash cards, and you can separate your topics with the four different colors available. This is what I'll be using to study for my finals, which are coming up in a few weeks. br>br>I experimented with a variety of pens, markers, highlighters, and pencils to see if any would bleed through to the other side, but only a Sharpie did. However, it is a Sharpie, and Sharpies can go through poster boards if they so desire. I can't see through the cards when they're standing, but you can if you hold them up to a light. br>br>Overall, they're decent, sturdy index cards. If you're looking for some bright cards to study with, this is a good option. br>br>It arrived in two days after I ordered it.
As a science major, I had a lot of difficulty in school. You'll have to memorize a lot of information, and if that's not your strong suit, it'll be difficult. Someone suggested color coding as a way to help me remember things. In my attempt to make it work, I received these cards. I was able to memorize the majority of what I needed after a few weeks of using colors to represent various organic chemistry reagents. The use of color coding was extremely beneficial, and the cards themselves are sturdy and durable. I would strongly suggest it.
It's hard to beat old-fashioned index cards for organizing ideas when you get a lot of them for a low price. Although I keep a lot of notes on my phone and computer in the notes app, I prefer the ease of taking notes on index cards and then stacking them at my desk when I get home. br>br>I tried using Post-It notes for a while, but there are only so many places you can stick them before they become a jumble. This type of index card is durable and easy to stack. In my case, I eventually transcribe some of them into my computer, but they mostly serve as reminders to get things done, which I then toss when I'm done. br>br>I hope this review was beneficial to you. We welcome your questions and comments.
The cards are very strong, don't rip easily, and have a great feel to them. I use these primarily as flash cards, which defeats the purpose when I can see the answer on the other side when using dark colors like black or even blue, and if you use a pen with them, you'll leave indents on the other side. I found that light colored makes like light green, pink, or orange work best.
Very thin, very thin, very thin, very thin, very thin, very thin, very thin, very thin I bought these because some of the reviews said the cards were thick, and I'm not sure why, unless these are older reviews and they've decided to start making thinner cards. If I had known, I would not have purchased them. I was looking for white cards that I could write on while holding them in my hands, rather than having to set them down to write on them, which is difficult in this case.
I like the neon colors and how I can group similar concepts by color. The disadvantage is that the newer sets are much more sheer than older ones (I've had these since the late 1990s), and the sharpie bleeds right through, especially with the yellow. br>On the left is a card from an older set, while on the right is a card from a new set.
FAIL with thin, flimsy cards that are barely stronger than paper.
It's also obvious that it's a three-person unit. If each pack were to be considered its own "unit," each pack would have its own loose Oxford label instead of each pack having its own. Other reviewers also shared images of the units they had received. I double-checked those photos and found that each of them was a single-unit order. So, there you have it, three separate-but-related-but-related-but-not-competing-but 1 UNIT = wrapped packs in a single large encasing wrap with one loose Oxford label sheet. One of my packs is missing!.
