The useful planning question is what you can practise in the time available. A timetable full of reading blocks looks organised but can hide weak recall.

A practical sequence

  1. List exam dates, unit names and genuinely available study periods. Keep travel, meals and other commitments in the plan; do not ask an assistant to assume twelve productive hours every day.
  2. Rank units by your current confidence and their place in the official syllabus. Use past papers only where they are legitimately available, and do not treat previous frequency as a prediction.
  3. Assign each session an output: solve three problems, explain a mechanism without notes or write a timed outline. Alternate demanding work with shorter review periods.
  4. At the end of each day compare planned outputs with completed outputs. Carry forward only the highest-priority unfinished task and keep a buffer before the exam.

An example to adapt

Example planning input: Seven days, two 45-minute evening sessions on weekdays, three weak units and one practice paper. Produce a feasible plan with one buffer session.

Use the example with a small, permitted section of your own material. Keep the official syllabus and the original source open beside the output. The purpose is to make your thinking visible: what you understood, where you hesitated and which passage resolves the doubt. A useful session should leave you with a corrected note or a question for your teacher, not just a longer collection of generated text.

What to check before you finish

AI cannot know your fatigue or your actual mastery. If the plan repeatedly slips, reduce its scope rather than compressing sleep or removing every break.

Choose one question you could not answer at the beginning and attempt it again without looking. If you still cannot explain the idea, reduce the task and revisit the source. Do not use a generated summary as a substitute for required reading or submit generated work contrary to your course rules.
