Are you spending too much time on subjects you already know well? Enter your weekly study hours per subject and see if your time is really balanced — or dangerously lopsided.
⏱ Takes about 2 minutes
For each subject you enter, the tool calculates what percentage of your total weekly study time it's receiving. It then compares every subject's share against what a balanced distribution would look like — and flags anything that's significantly over or under.
The spread ratio shows how lopsided your schedule is. A ratio of 1x is perfect balance. A ratio above 2x means your most-studied subject is getting double the time of your least-studied one — which is usually a warning sign.
It's completely natural to gravitate toward subjects you enjoy or already feel confident in. But exams test everything — and the subject you keep putting off is almost always the one that costs you the most marks on the day.
Regular balance checks (even just weekly) prevent the slow drift where one subject dominates your schedule without you realising.
Not always. Subjects where you're weaker, or that carry more exam marks, may deserve more time. The key is that every subject gets enough — not that they all get exactly the same. The tool flags when the gap becomes too large to ignore.
A ratio above 2x (one subject getting more than double the time of another) is usually a warning sign — unless there's a clear reason like a much larger syllabus or a much harder subject. Above 3x is almost always imbalanced.
You can use this tool to balance topics within a single subject instead of separate subjects. Just treat each topic as a "subject" row. The balance logic works exactly the same way.
You can add up to 10 subjects. For most students preparing for board or competitive exams, 3–6 subjects is typical. If you have more, consider grouping related ones together.
Your subject names and hours are saved automatically in your browser each time you run a check. They'll be there the next time you visit — so you can update hours each week without re-typing everything.
