Checklist

• ☐List all exams, dates and their importance
• ☐Gather lectures, textbooks, notes and course instructions
• ☐Identify topics you find difficult in each subject
• ☐Create a manageable schedule, alternating subjects where useful
• ☐Try recalling material with your notes closed, then check it
• ☐Create flashcards for important definitions and formulas
• ☐Practice available past papers, such as 3 per subject if appropriate
• ☐Explain difficult topics to another person and notice gaps
• ☐Arrange a study group for discussion and mutual checking if useful
• ☐Leave enough time for sleep, including before an exam
• ☐Take suitable breaks between study blocks
• ☐Choose manageable physical activity suited to your health
• ☐Plan suitable regular meals rather than relying on energy drinks
• ☐Rehearse with a timed paper under the exam’s actual rules
• ☐Prepare required documents, pens and water the day before

Why use this checklist

Try different ways of working with the material. After reading, close the notes and explain a topic, then check the source. Return to questions later and solve tasks similar to the exam. Alternating topics may be convenient, but does not come with a fixed memory-improvement percentage. A plan organizes review; assess it through actual assignments. The AI coach can suggest a draft schedule based on your description, which you need to check and adjust yourself.

How to use it

Start as early as your situation allows. Use paper or digital flashcards if useful. Explaining a topic aloud can reveal questions to check, but does not guarantee retention. Leave time for sleep and manageable breaks. Configure your schedule and reminders yourself; automatic import of exams and study results is not promised.

For recurring actions, use the Sinqly habit tracker. Organize morning activities in the morning routine module. The weekly planner helps distribute tasks, and you can discuss next steps with the AI coach.
