Set how many hours you can realistically revise on each day of the week. This weekly pattern repeats until the exam.
Priority sets how much revision time a subject gets relative to the others. Leave every subject at 3 for an even split.
Enter a start date, an exam date after the start date, at least one subject, and at least one weekday with available hours.
| Subject | Priority | Total hours | Share |
|---|
| Date | Day | Available | Focus |
|---|
This is a simple proportional split based on the hours and priorities you enter. It does not know your syllabus, exam weighting, or how well you already know each subject, adjust the plan to fit your own needs.
Building a revision timetable around the UK exam calendar
GCSE and A-level finals run from mid-May to late June, and most schools run a mock exam series in November or January to test readiness before the final study leave period. Degree students usually sit exams in a block between April and June, with resits in August. This tool spreads the hours you can realistically give up between now and the exam date across every subject on your list, so the plan reflects the calendar you are actually working with rather than a generic countdown.
Typical UK exam windows
| Stage | Usual exam window |
|---|---|
| Mock exams (GCSE / A-level) | Late November or January |
| GCSE and A-level finals | Mid-May to late June |
| University end-of-year exams | April to June, resits in August |
Where this planner falls short
The split between subjects is proportional to the priority you set, it does not know which topics carry the most marks on the actual paper, which past questions repeat, or which subjects you already know well. Coursework deadlines, controlled assessments, and non-exam assessment windows are not modelled either. Treat the table as a starting timetable to adjust, not a substitute for a syllabus checklist or past-paper practice.
How the daily split is calculated
For each day, the hours you entered for that weekday are divided between subjects in proportion to their priority: subject hours = day hours x (subject priority / sum of all priorities). Pair this with the Pomodoro Timer to break each subject's block into focused sessions, or check your current average with the GPA Calculator before deciding which subjects need the most attention.
