Why my first three attempts fell apart
Every timetable I made before this one had the same problem: it was written by a version of me that had already had eight hours of sleep, three coffees, and zero distractions. None of those versions of me showed up on an actual Tuesday. The schedule assumed a level of daily consistency I've genuinely never had, and it broke by day four every single time.
What I changed
I stopped planning in hours and started planning in sessions, with each session tied to one specific outcome instead of a vague time block. "Study OS for two hours" became "finish ten scheduling PYQs." A session that gets done feels like progress. A time block that gets half-used just feels like failure, even when real work happened inside it.
The schedule as it actually looks now
Mornings are for the subject I'm weakest in that week, because that's when I have the most patience for being bad at something. Evenings are lighter — revision, flashcards, PYQs from subjects I already feel steady in. One day a week has nothing scheduled at all, on purpose, because the previous three versions of this plan didn't have that and burned out by week three.
What I'd tell someone starting today
Don't copy someone else's schedule, including this one. Copy the idea behind it instead: make the plan for the version of you that actually shows up, not the version you wish would.
