Synonyms vs. Exact words

How do you address the cards where you got the answer correct, but used a synonym from the book you learned it from? I didn't get it wrong, I just didn't use the same word, and don't feel like re-learning the vocabulary just to have the cards reflect how I will do on the test. [Accounting has that issue.]

If not, is this a feature that can be added? [I tried the checkmark at the end of the answer, and it didn't adjust my score, so I guess that isn't what it's for..]

Either guide me, or thank you for the help in advance!

You don't need to type in answers- it's not important. Just use the cards as a study tool, there is no real grading/credit/score/reason to worry about the IC computer thinking you got X number right. Leave them blank, say the answer out loud, flip the card, move on. Smile

When an answer is marked wrong, you can click the checkbox to the right of the answer box. If the box is checked, when you click Next to go to the next question, it'll count that blank as correct.

THANK YOU!!!!!

I noticed last night on my final pass before the exam that most of the failed matches in my Financial Accounting cards were fixed (it ignores the '-' now, it accepts $ or missing $ in numeric fields, and was *very* pleased!

Thanks for the responsiveness! You saved me a lot of time (it adds about a second or so per card to check that box... With 500+ cards, that's almost 10 minutes!
