  • Leave the last week for revision and past papers. Short sessions with breaks (for example 50 minutes on, 10 off) beat long ones.

How it works

Study hours = days to the exam × (study days ÷ 7) × hours a day · Each subject = hours × its weight ÷ total weight

Worked example

From 26 October 2026 to an exam on 1 March 2027 is 126 days. With one day off a week, that's 108 study days, or 432 hours at 4 hours a day. Physics, weighted 5 of 16, gets 135 hours.

Questions people ask

How should I split study time between subjects?

Give more time to harder or bigger subjects. Weight each from 1 to 5 and the planner divides your hours in proportion.

How many hours a day should I study?

It depends on the exam, but 3 to 6 focused hours with breaks is more effective than long tired sessions.

Should I study every day?

Taking a day off a week helps you keep going. The planner counts it out.
