Efficiency
82/100
Balanced pace
Foundation + concept wiring
6 weeks / 108hLearn + consolidate high-yield pathways using short lessons and 1–2 focused quizzes (18 h/wk total).
- Build durable concept map and flashcard seeds
- Clear initial diagnostic by topic block
- Keep notes compact for future review
Targeted drilling
6 weeks / 92hClose weak concepts fast with topic drills, flashcards, and review loops. Budget 5 h/wk for active recall work.
- Run weakness-first sessions at each section transition
- Practice retrieval 2–3 times per week
- Raise first-attempt accuracy before increasing pace
Practice conditioning
4 weeks / 76hBuild timing, passage stamina, and error analysis habits with full-length cadence + targeted post-mortems.
- Take full-length or section exams on a strict cadence
- Review every missed question using AI tutor notes
- Track speed drift, not just accuracy
Polish + official-style simulation
1 week / 30hProtect your score: last-leg question mix, CARS speed, and final-risk remediation within error logs.
- Lock in final formula patterns and passage traps
- Keep momentum through low-volume but high-fidelity drills
- Finalize rest-day and sleep protection plan
Milestones
Week 3: Phase 1 checkpoint
Foundational recall reaches baseline + baseline quiz pass
Week 9: Weakness bandwidth built by week 9
Weak topic tags are being remediated 2+ sessions/week
Week 13: Exam rhythm stabilized by week 13
Full-length cadence is consistent and review quality is stable
Week 17: Score-lock readiness by week 17
Ready for score-pace simulation and final risk control
First 24h
Set up 5 study sessions this week at about 216 minutes each.
Start with foundation + concept wiring and complete its top priority objective first.
Keep one 24-hour review checkpoint after each session so retention is reinforced before moving on.
If you miss pace on Day 2 or 3, pause for 20–30 minutes and do your highest-priority block before restarting your plan.
Effort signal
Balanced runway: this is optimized for consistency while still allowing speed-up on weak topics during the week.
Focus window: 154 min/day
