AltF Campus

Exam study planner and timetable maker

The study planner turns your exam dates into a day-by-day timetable: it spreads study time across the days before each exam, gives harder subjects more of it, and keeps the last day before every exam free for revision. Add your exams, set how many hours you can study per day, and adjust the plan as you go; it is saved only in your browser.

Worked example: two subjects, 14 days, 2 hours a day

  1. 1Both papers are on day 14. Day 13 is kept as the revision day, leaving days 1 to 12 for study.
  2. 2Study time available: 12 days × 2 hours = 24 hours.
  3. 3Physics is marked hard (weight 3) and English easy (weight 1), so the split is 3 : 1.
  4. 4Physics gets 24 × 3 ÷ 4 = 18 hours; English gets 24 × 1 ÷ 4 = 6 hours.

About 18 hours of Physics and 6 hours of English across 12 study days, plus a full revision day before the exams.

How do I make a study timetable for exams?

  • List every exam with its date and time.
  • Rate each subject's difficulty for you, not in general.
  • Decide realistic study hours per day, including days with classes.
  • Let the planner split the days and reserve a revision day before each exam.
  • Review the plan every few days and move missed sessions forward rather than deleting them.
  • Leave a little slack each week for catch-up, illness or unexpected coursework.

Why keep a revision day before each exam?

The day before an exam is a poor time to learn something new and a good time to consolidate. A dedicated revision day gives room for past papers, flashcard reviews and a final pass through weak topics, while leaving the evening free for rest. It also acts as a buffer: if earlier study days slipped, the revision day absorbs the overflow instead of the night before.

How should I split time between subjects?

Weight time toward subjects that are hard for you or carry more marks, but do not drop easy subjects entirely. Short, regular sessions on every subject keep earlier material from fading, which is the idea behind spaced practice. The planner uses your difficulty ratings as weights, so an honest rating matters more than any fixed hours-per-subject rule. If a subject turns out harder than expected, raise its rating and regenerate the plan.

Exam study planner: questions and answers

How many hours a day should I study for exams?

There is no universal number. A plan you can keep beats an ambitious one you abandon, so start with what fits around classes and sleep, perhaps two to four focused hours, and add time closer to exams. Using focus sessions such as Pomodoro helps make those hours count.

What if two exams are on consecutive days?

The planner still keeps the day before each exam for revision, so the first exam's revision day comes earlier and the gap between them becomes the second exam's revision day. Start the harder of the two earlier in your plan so it is not squeezed.

Can I edit the generated timetable?

Yes, by changing its inputs: edit an exam's difficulty, add or remove exams, or change your hours per day, and the timetable rebuilds instantly. Everything is saved in your browser's local storage, so the plan is still there when you come back on the same device and browser.

Can I print or share my plan?

You can print the page or export your Campus data as a JSON file and import it on another device. There is no account or cloud sync, so nothing is shared unless you choose to send the file yourself. Importing replaces the Campus data in that browser, so export there first if needed.
