Weekly study timetable

By making a weekly study timetable for yourself you will

1. organise your time evenly across your subjects and
2. see how you are using your time.

Note: Homework is different from study. When you study you summarise and attempt to learn your subject matter.

The study program below is for a year 11 student attempting to study 18 hours per week.

There is a 10 minute break for every hour of study.

Year 11 Study Timetable

Weekly study hours  = Number of study blocks x Block time in minutes / 60 minutes

Weekly study hours  = 22 x 50 / 60 hours

Weekly study hours  = 18 hours

In reality the study timetable serves as a guide.

To keep on track tally the number of study blocks you complete each day of the week.

Total number of Homework/ study blocks per term

 My goal is to achieve 22 blocks of study per week

This student may have not achieved 22 blocks of study in a week but 16 blocks is way ahead of students with no study plan so don't give up!

"In my first two weeks  I studied 16 x 50/ 60 or  13 hours per week. Considering I did very little last year I have improved heaps!"

If you want to push yourself further then set yourself short term goals and reward yourself.

For example "if I follow the study schedule form Monday to Friday in total I will take Saturday off as 19 blocks of study is better than 16!"

By attempting to follow a study plan you will start to develop good time management skills.Think of a person training to compete in a marathon. If they are unfit at the beginning they will start off walking then later on jog for a bit. As time goes on they will become fitter and fitter.
