Is the study planner free?

You need a free account to generate a plan. Sign-up takes an email address.

What does it ask for?

Your target exam date, how many hours a day you can study, and which subjects you consider weak and strong. Nothing else.

Can I change the plan later?

Yes. You can generate a new plan whenever your circumstances change, and previous plans stay in your history.

Does it cover both Prelims and Mains?

The phases are built around your exam date, so a plan generated well ahead of Prelims phases differently from one generated after it. Give it the date you are actually preparing for.

UPSC study plan generator

Most UPSC timetables fail because they are copied from someone else. A plan built for a candidate with eighteen months and six free hours a day is the wrong plan for someone working full time with the exam nine months out.

This planner takes four inputs — your target exam date, the hours you can genuinely study each day, the subjects you are weak in and the ones you are strong in — and returns a plan split into phases. Each phase has its own focus areas, suggested activities and a milestone to check yourself against.

How it works

1
Tell it your constraints
Target exam date, realistic daily study hours, and which subjects you find hard or easy. Honest inputs produce a usable plan; optimistic ones produce a plan you abandon in week three.
2
Get a phased plan
The plan is divided into phases rather than a day-by-day calendar, because a calendar breaks the first time life interferes. Each phase carries focus areas, activities and a milestone.
3
Keep and revisit it
Every plan you generate is saved to your history, so you can regenerate as the exam approaches or your weak subjects change, and compare against what you planned earlier.
