Study Time Planner
Divide your available study hours across subjects by priority, with hours per week, per day and in total before exams.

Total study hours before the exams
72
- Hours per study day
- 3
- Most time: Mathematics
- 9 h/week
≈Estimate based on the stated model and assumptions
Notes for this result
- Spacing study over time and testing yourself (retrieval practice) are consistently supported by learning research; schedule short breaks too.
| Subject | Hours/week | Hours/day | Total hours |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mathematics | 9 | 1.5 | 36 |
| Biology | 6 | 1 | 24 |
| History | 3 | 0.5 | 12 |
What this calculator does
Allocating time deliberately — more to harder or higher-stakes subjects — makes revision more effective.
Formula and method
Hours for a subject = weekly hours × weight ÷ Σ weights
Worked example
Calculated by this tool with its default inputs:
Inputs
- Subjects — one per line: name, priority weight (e.g. 1–5): Mathematics, 3 Biology, 2 History, 1
- Study hours available per week: 18
- Weeks until the exams: 4
- Study days per week: 6
Results
- Total study hours before the exams: 72
- Hours per study day: 3
- Most time: Mathematics: 9 h/week
How to read the results
Revisit the weights as your confidence in each subject changes.
Assumptions and limitations
- Learning research consistently supports spaced practice and self-testing over cramming.
Questions
How should I choose weights?
Combine difficulty, exam weight and how prepared you already are.
