Why it works
- Two study blocks a day around your lectures turn free periods into progress.
- Daily note review is short and compounds before exams.
- A Sunday review keeps assignments from surprising you.
Make it yours
- Import your university timetable (most offer an iCal feed) into Cutline so lectures sit in the Grid, then fit study blocks around them. See any iCal calendar.
- Exam season? Switch to the Exam Week template.

Questions
