Set up your exams

  1. Add one countdown per exam with the date, and turn on Show countdown to set the start time. Use the same emoji for every exam, like 📚, and searching that emoji lists them all.
  2. Add the Next Event widget. It shows the closest exam and moves to the next one by itself after each exam day.
  3. Add reminders: 7 days before to start revising, 1 day before, and 1 hour before to leave on time.

Revision that keeps up with the countdown

  • Topic checklist in each exam's notes: tick off chapters as you revise them.
  • Study group: share an exam countdown with classmates so the date and notes stay the same for everyone.
  • Long term: also count down to the end of the semester or graduation. Past exams stay in the Past tab.
