The exam is in three weeks. The material is a mountain. And the hardest question is not about chemistry or history, it is the one you ask yourself every evening: what exactly should I do tonight? The new Study Plan exists to answer that question for you, every single day, until the exam.
This is the headline feature of our July update. iTutor used to have two half-features: a Learning Path that knew what to study but not when, and a Study Planner that knew when but not what. We merged them into one feature, simply called Study Plan, and then rebuilt what happens inside each session so that opening one means actually studying, not reading a to-do list.
Tell it the goal. It hands back a calendar.
Setting up a plan takes three answers: what you are working toward, when the deadline is (if there is one), and which days you are actually free. From there, iTutor reads the materials you have uploaded to that subject, breaks them into an ordered backbone of units, and lays those units out as sessions across your real weeks, ending before your deadline with room to spare for review.
One detail we are quietly proud of: the AI decides what to study and in what order, because that is a judgment call about your material. But the date math, spacing sessions across your free days and fitting everything in before the deadline, is handled by a scheduler that is completely deterministic. Calendars should not guess. Yours will not.
Sessions you can actually study inside
Here is the part that makes this more than a prettier planner. A session on your calendar is not a note that says "study chapter 4." Opening it starts a guided flow built for that unit, mixing the study tools that fit the topic best.
Depending on the unit, that flow might be a short slide deck to learn from, flashcards to memorize, a quiz to prove it, or a mind map to tie ideas together. Every step is generated from your own uploaded material, so the definitions and examples match your course, and it renders inline. You never get bounced somewhere else to go find the work.
Miss a day? The plan bends, it does not break
Real weeks do not go to plan. When you fall behind, the plan notices and offers one honest button: Rebalance. It slides the remaining work forward across your free days, still finishing before the deadline. If the math genuinely no longer fits, it says so, and gives you real choices: extend the deadline, open up more days, or trim the plan.
You can also just grab a session and drag it to another day. Month, week, and agenda views all understand your plan, in light and dark mode, left-to-right and right-to-left.
It brings ideas back right before you forget them
Learning something once is the easy part. The plan schedules short review sessions for each unit at growing intervals, a couple of days after you learn it, then about a week, then about two weeks. That spacing is one of the most reliable results in learning science: reviewing just as a memory starts to fade is what makes it stick.
As the deadline approaches, the plan shifts into exam prep and schedules a full exam simulator across everything you have covered. Along the way, mastery indicators on each unit show what is solid and what still needs work, based on how your reviews and quizzes actually went.
Every subject, one agenda
If you are juggling several subjects, the new Study agenda merges every plan into one view: a single list or calendar of what is next across all of it, with an optional reminder an hour before each session. You can run more than one plan per subject, edit a plan after the fact, add or reorder units by hand, and rename things without losing the work already generated.
Study Plans are part of the free student plan. If you can upload material, you can build a plan on it.
