Unfortunately I don't have a smartphone.
I thought about creating my own flashcards but I have bad handwriting.

Some local people are selling their flash cards for $30 but I don't know if I should spend that money and time on something else like doing questions.

It seems you guys aren't all that enthusiastic about the Schweser flashcards.

I was planning on doing flash cards only for Ethics - That way you know that inside and out by pure rote memorization.

Other things like accounting and corporate finance, you won't get by doing just flashcards you have to intuitively understand what the problem is asking for.

CFAI emphasize on Ethics. I think Curriculum (CFAI Text books) should be used for preparing Ethics precisely the Standards. The examples which are given in the CFAI Text Books are very important and helpful in understanding the depth of the topic and giving the idea of understanding the question. Flash cards can be helpful in many cases but based upon the emphasize of CFAI on Ethics; it should be done from CFAI Text books (atleast one in depth reading)
