How to use the revision timetable planner
- In Subjects (one per line), type each subject. Add “, 2” (or another number) after a subject to give it more slots.
- Choose the Start date.
- Set Days (1 to 120 study days) and Study slots per day (1 to 12). A slot is one block of study, such as 45 minutes.
- Pick a Rest day: Sundays, Saturdays, Fridays or no rest day.
- Press Build timetable. Check the table and the Slots per subject count, then print the timetable or save the CSV.
What it does and when to use it
When exams are a few weeks away, the hard part is often deciding what to study each day. This planner makes that choice once, fairly, so no subject is left until the final week. It suits school exams, university finals and professional tests where several subjects compete for the same time.
Use the exam countdown first to see how many days you really have. Inside each slot, the spaced repetition planner tells you when to revisit a topic, and the flashcard maker gives you something active to do.
How it works
The planner uses a smooth weighted round-robin. Every slot, each subject’s score grows by its weight. The subject with the highest score takes the slot, and its score drops by the total of all weights. This spreads subjects evenly instead of grouping them, and it gives the same timetable every time for the same input.
There is one extra rule: within a day, a subject is not picked again while another subject has not yet had a slot that day. Dates are whole calendar days, and the rest-day setting skips that weekday.
Worked examples
Four subjects, Maths weighted 2. Start Monday 12 October 2026, 5 days, 3 slots, no rest day. Tuesday reads English | Maths | Physics. Over 15 slots Maths gets 5, Physics 4, and Chemistry and English 3 each. Maths gets 5 slots, not 6, because with four subjects and three slots it cannot appear twice in a day.
Saturday off. History, Geography and French from Friday 9 October 2026, 4 days of 2 slots, rest day Saturdays. Saturday 10 October is skipped, so the plan runs Friday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday: Ends on: Tuesday, 13 October 2026. History and Geography get 3 slots each, French 2.
Weight with few subjects. “Biology, 3” and Chemistry, 4 slots a day from Monday 12 October 2026 with Sundays off. Each day is Biology, Chemistry, Biology, Biology, so Biology gets 6 of the 8 slots, a 3 to 1 split.
Limits and tips
- The planner does not know topic difficulty or exam dates. Put the subject with the earliest exam first and give it a higher weight.
- Slots have no times. Decide the length of a slot yourself and keep short breaks between them.
- Rebuild the plan each week; set a new start date and the days left.
