Flash Cards to Remember More of What We Studied Long Term

The problem is that now that's it's been over a year a lot of the information is starting to fade since I don't use it all. I'm mostly talking about the 101 stuff from the courses they have CLEPs and AP for, like the various theories in psychology, the process cells go through to duplicate, and US/World history topics. 

My idea is to make some well-thought out Anki decks with flashcards for the material that these courses typically cover, and just stay on top of the deck long term (I usually stop going over them after I finish a subject). 

Anyone have any input on some condensed resources that would be good to pull points from for flashcards? Or maybe someone's already done something like this and I just haven't found it? For example, I found this for Psychology/Sociology, and it looks like I could just pull information from that to make flash cards and I'd be good to go on those subjects. Maybe there's something similar for Biology, Chem, Physics, History, etc.

My goal is to be able to pick up a book like The Body by Bill Bryson and remember what the Amygdala does or turn on a history show and remember some details about the war of 1812 5 years from now.

Your phone is next to you (probably) all the time - you can always look up what the Amygdala does if/when you need to.  Trying to keep everything you've ever learned fresh is going to take some doing. And, it may not ever be important.  I think looking things up when you're not sure is far easier, and quicker, than spending time daily with flashcards.  But that's just me.  My brain can only hold so much info, so I have to prioritize.  Your brain may be better (or younger) than mine.
