About this tool
Rate noise, lighting, desk setup, phone placement and more to get a weighted 0-100 score for your study environment.
The Study Environment Score scores a study environment out of 100 by rating six factors — phone placement, noise, desk and chair, lighting, clutter, and temperature — each on a 0-5 scale and weighting them (score = Σ weight × rating/5). Phone placement carries the largest weight (25 points) because it is the distractor students most often log, and the result ranks which fixes would recover the most points. It is for students setting up or troubleshooting a home, hostel or library study space.

Slide each of the six factor sliders from 0 to 5 — phone placement carries the largest weight at 25 points.
Read the Environment score out of 100 and the 'Fix these first' list, ranked by how many points each fix recovers.
Change one factor and re-rate to see the points recovered, then use Copy result to export the breakdown.
Phone and noise count more than decor, so the score reflects what actually breaks focus.
The three factors losing the most points come with one concrete, low-cost fix each.
Change one thing, re-rate, and see exactly how many points the fix recovered.
The phone out of reach, low noise, a proper desk and chair, even lighting on the page, a clutter-free surface and a ventilated room. In this tool's rubric those six factors are weighted 25, 20, 15, 15, 15 and 10 points respectively, summing to a 100-point score.
Because a phone within reach interrupts and ends study sessions outright, while imperfect lighting merely makes them more tiring. That is why this rubric gives phone placement 25 points — the single largest weight — and lighting 15.
It costs points in this rubric because lying or slouching lowers alertness and the brain associates the bed with sleep, making drowsiness arrive sooner. A plain table and upright chair are the cheapest upgrade most students can make.
On this scale, 85+ is an excellent deep-work setup, 70-84 is good with small tweaks left, 50-69 has fixable leaks, and below 50 means the room itself is working against you. The bands are the tool's rubric — use the ranked fixes to climb one band at a time.
