Setting up your study plan
The plan is built from a short survey. Every answer changes something concrete, so it is worth being honest rather than optimistic.
Pick the date you are sitting. Every administration the College Board has published is there, with how far away it is — and "I have not decided yet" builds an eight-week plan you can re-date later.
Say what time you actually have: hours a week, which days, and the longest you can sit in one go. The line at the bottom turns that into the length of your daily mission before you commit to it.
Save, and the plan is built backwards from your date. It rebuilds whenever one of those answers changes.

What it asksLink to the section: What it asks
- **Which test date.** Picked from the published College Board calendar. You also say whether it is booked or only intended.
- **Hours a week.** How many you genuinely have, not how many you wish you had.
- **Which days.** The plan only schedules work on days you said you study.
- **Longest single sitting.** This caps any one day. A plan that hands you ninety minutes when you said forty is one you abandon in week two.
- **How much preparation you have already done.**
- **Whether to weight the time** evenly or towards Reading and Writing or Math.
- **Roughly where you are scoring now**, and whether that came from a mock or a guess.
- **What you are aiming at.**
What you get backLink to the section: What you get back
A daily mission sized to the time you have, ordered by the skills you are weakest at, and a verdict on whether your target is reachable by your date — with the reasoning shown, including whether your baseline came from a real mock.
Changing an answer laterLink to the section: Changing an answer later
Open your plan and edit the survey. The schedule rebuilds around the new answer and does not discard anything you have already completed. See Changing your test date.
