How to use it

  1. 1

    Add your exams

    For each subject, enter the exam date, the number of chapters you still need to revise and how hard it is for you.

  2. 2

    Set your study time

    Tell the planner how many hours you can study on weekdays and on weekends, and how long one chapter takes you.

  3. 3

    Follow the timetable

    The planner gives priority to the closest exams and the biggest workloads. Print it or add it to your calendar.

How the planner spreads your revision hours

Each exam gets a workload: chapters left × hours per chapter, increased for harder subjects. Every day, your available hours go to the exams with the most work left per remaining day, so a close exam is never forgotten for a distant one.

No revision is planned on an exam's own day for that subject, and once a subject is fully covered its hours are freed up for the others or for review.

How far ahead should you start revising?

Look at the status of each exam. 'Not enough time' means your available hours before the exam are lower than the workload: start earlier, add hours, or prioritize the chapters with the most points.

Spacing works better than cramming: reviewing a chapter several times over a few weeks helps you remember it far better than one long session the night before.

Make your study sessions count

Split each planned block into focused sessions of 25 to 50 minutes with short breaks, and test yourself with flashcards or practice questions instead of rereading.

Keep a short list of what you got wrong and revisit it at the start of the next session for that subject.

Questions, answered

How do I make a revision timetable for exams?

List your exams with their dates and the chapters left, estimate how long a chapter takes you, and set your daily study hours. The planner then builds a day-by-day timetable that prioritizes the closest and heaviest exams.

How many days before an exam should I start studying?

It depends on the workload. The planner compares the hours you need with the hours you have before each exam and shows 'On track', 'Tight' or 'Not enough time' so you know when to start.

Can I add the plan to Google Calendar or Apple Calendar?

Yes. Click 'Add to my calendar (.ics)' to download a file you can import into Google Calendar, Apple Calendar or Outlook.

Is my plan saved?

Your exams and settings are stored in your browser on this device, so your plan is still there when you come back.

Does it work for finals, midterms and the baccalauréat?

Yes. It works for any set of exams with dates: university finals, midterms, high school exams, A-levels, the bac or entrance exams.
