About Study Planner

Effective study planning distributes revision evenly across subjects and prevents last-minute cramming. Research consistently shows that spaced repetition - reviewing material at increasing intervals (1 day, 3 days, 1 week, 2 weeks) - produces significantly better long-term retention than massed practice (cramming). The Ebbinghaus forgetting curve shows that without review, 50% of new information is forgotten within a day.

Planning principles: allocate more time to difficult subjects while maintaining progress in easier ones; study high-priority or high-weightage topics first; mix subjects across study sessions rather than spending an entire day on one subject (interleaving improves retention); end each session by briefly reviewing what you studied (the generation effect strengthens memory encoding). Build buffer days into your study schedule to accommodate unexpected events and use them for extra practice on weak areas.

Frequently Asked Questions

Each subject is assigned a difficulty weight (Easy = 1, Medium = 1.5, Hard = 2). Total available study hours (days until exam × daily hours) are then distributed proportionally to these weights, so harder subjects receive more study time than easier ones.
The tool calculates the difference between today's date and your entered exam date, rounding up to a whole number of days, then multiplies that by your daily available hours to get total study hours.

Spaced repetition — reviewing material at increasing intervals — produces significantly better long-term retention than cramming. Harder subjects benefit most from frequent, distributed review since they take longer to master.
