Your exams

Leave the start time blank and 9:00 AM is assumed. Exams are sorted automatically with the nearest first, and anything already finished is marked as passed and moved to the bottom.


Quick add — tap to name a row, then pick your date

Note: we deliberately don't pre-fill exam dates — board and entry-test dates change every year and differ between boards, so a built-in date would soon be wrong. Take the date from your official date sheet or your board's website.

Turning a Countdown Into a Revision Plan

A countdown is only useful if it changes what you do today. The number that matters is not really "days left" — it's study sessions left. Take the days remaining, subtract the days you realistically can't study, and multiply what's left by the number of focused sessions you can manage each day. Sixty days at two sessions a day is 120 sessions; a syllabus of thirty topics suddenly looks like four sessions per topic, which is a plan rather than a panic.

Add every paper, not just the first one. Students usually revise for the exam that's nearest and neglect the one three weeks later — then run out of road. Entering your whole date sheet here shows the real shape of the season, including the tight gaps where two papers sit two days apart and revision has to happen before the exams start, not between them.

Work backwards from the date. Fix the last week for past papers and revision only — no new topics — then the week before that for weak areas, and give everything earlier to first-pass coverage. When the countdown enters its final seven days the card turns gold as a reminder that you should already be revising rather than learning.

Pair this with the Study Focus Timer to make each session count, and the Percentage Calculator to check your past-paper scores as you go.

Exam Countdown FAQs

Because board and entry-test dates change every year and differ between boards — a built-in date would be wrong within months and could cost someone an exam. The quick-add chips fill in the name, and you add the date from your official date sheet.
Yes — add as many papers as you like. They sort themselves with the nearest first, the big countdown always tracks your next exam, and anything already finished drops to the bottom marked as passed.
Leave the time blank and 9:00 AM is assumed, which suits most morning papers. Add the exact time from your date sheet if you want the countdown to be precise to the minute.
No — the list clears when you close or refresh the page, because nothing is stored. Bookmark the page and re-adding a couple of dates takes seconds, or keep the tab open during a study session.
The card changes colour inside the final seven days — a visual cue that you should be revising and doing past papers by that point rather than covering new material.
Yes — dates and times are treated as local to your device, so the countdown is correct whether you're in Pakistan, the Gulf, the UK or anywhere else.
