Study planning

Exams that don't sneak up.

Readings, assignments and exams pile up across courses; plan them so revision starts weeks ahead, not the night before.

Upcoming

Step by step

A term, planned in steps.

Set up the courses once, put in every date, and give revision its own start.

  1. Step 1: A project per course

    Create one project per course, with sections for lectures, readings and assignments. Each one opens as a list, a board or a calendar.

  2. Step 2: Put in every date

    Type readings, hand-ins and exams in quick add as you get them. Revision gets a start date, so it shows up in Today in time.

  3. Step 3: Study in focused sessions

    Start Pomodoro on the reading: 25 minutes, a 5-minute break, and a longer break after every four sessions.

  4. Step 4: Get reminded before it is due

    Give hand-ins a time and a reminder up to a day before. It arrives as a push notification on your phone or laptop.

Tips

Study smarter, not later.

  • Share a project with your group for group work: every member sees the same tasks and comments.
  • Break a big assignment into subtasks, or let Suggest steps propose them.
  • Subscribe to your tasks in Google or Apple Calendar to see deadlines next to your timetable.
  • Park optional readings in Someday so Today stays realistic.
