Revision Coverage Plan Calculator

Work out revision coverage plan instantly with clear inputs, formula shown and shareable results.

About Revision Coverage Plan Calculator

Coverage planning must count both untouched topics and weak ones needing a second pass. With 22 of 40 topics covered but eight needing revisiting, 26 sessions remain across twelve days - 2.17 a day, which is sustainable. Above about five topics a day the plan is fiction and the syllabus needs triaging by exam weighting.

Formulas

Sessions remaining

sessions = (total topics - covered) + topics needing a second pass

Daily rate

per day = sessions remaining / days remaining

Worked example

With the default values below, Revision Coverage Plan Calculator returns Topics Per Day Needed of 2.17. Change any input above and every figure here is recalculated in your browser.

Assumptions and limits

  • The result is derived only from the 4 inputs listed above. Anything not among them is not part of the calculation.
  • In particular, this calculator does not take inflation, tax, fees or charges or compounding frequency into account.
  • Figures are rounded for display to 2 decimal places, so totals built from several rounded parts can differ slightly from the unrounded arithmetic.

How these calculators are built and tested is described on the Methodology page. If a figure looks wrong, please report it.

Frequently Asked Questions

How should I triage if the plan is not achievable?

By exam weighting and marginal gain - cover the highest-mark topics to a passing standard rather than perfecting a few.

Is two topics a day realistic?

For most subjects yes, at around two hours each. Mathematical subjects needing extensive problem practice are slower.
