Weekly planning checklist

I have listed all deadlines for the next four weeks.
I have broken each assignment into smaller tasks, with a date for each.
I have scheduled study sessions of 25 to 50 minutes, with breaks.
I have included revision time, not just first-time reading.
I have left one buffer session for work that overruns.

Study session routine

1. State what you will finish in this session. 2. Work without distractions, and note questions as they arise. 3. End by writing a two-line summary of what you learned and what to do next. Short summaries make the next session much easier to start.

Review at the end of the week

I have checked what was completed and what was not.
I have moved unfinished tasks to a realistic new date.
I have noted one study habit to keep and one to change.
