How are study hours distributed between subjects?

Each subject gets a weight equal to its credit hours multiplied by its difficulty multiplier (Easy=1, Medium=1.5, Hard=2, Very Hard=2.5). Your total weekly hours are then split proportionally by weight, so harder and higher-credit subjects receive more time.

What does the difficulty level represent?

Difficulty is your personal assessment of how demanding the subject is relative to your background. Easy courses with light reading might be 1x, while a graduate-level course requiring heavy problem-solving would be 2.5x. Adjust freely — the planner uses it only to weight allocation.

How many study hours per week should I enter?

A common guideline is 2–3 hours of study per credit hour per week. A 15-credit semester would suggest 30–45 hours. Enter a realistic number based on your own capacity and commitments.

Can I include more than one session per subject per day?

The planner shows a recommended daily total per subject. You can split that total into multiple shorter sessions — for example, two 45-minute blocks instead of one 90-minute block — based on your preference.

Is any data sent to a server?

No. All calculations run entirely in your browser. Nothing is stored or transmitted.

Can I print the schedule?

Yes. Click the "Print Schedule" button to open the browser print dialog. The schedule is formatted for clean printing on a standard letter or A4 page.
