How to make a study timetable you’ll actually stick to

A good timetable is realistic first and ambitious second. Plan for the week you actually have, not the one you wish you had.

Start with fixed commitments

Block out school, travel, meals, sport and sleep first. What’s left is your real study time.

Plan topics, not hours

Instead of “2 hours maths”, write “quadratics: 10 past paper questions”. You’ll know exactly when you’re done.
