1. Assess Your Total Weekly Study Hours
Count your available non-school hours. On weekdays, aim for 2 to 3 hours after household chores. On weekends, aim for 4 hours split into morning and afternoon blocks.
2. Prioritize Subjects Based on Weakness
Do not give equal time to every subject. If Mathematics and Chemistry are your weakest subjects, schedule them 3 times per week, while stronger subjects like English can be scheduled twice per week.

4. The Pomodoro Technique (50 mins study / 10 mins break)
Break each study hour into 50 minutes of intense focus and 10 minutes of complete rest (stretching, drinking water). This keeps your brain fresh throughout the evening.
