The Revision Sprint — your final month

Your regular plan is built for coverage — working through everything once, then consolidating. The final month is a different game: you already know where you're weak, and every day should count double. The Revision Sprint is StudyRise's answer to that last stretch. This is part of StudyRise Pro.

What the Sprint is

The Sprint is a day-by-day revision schedule weighted toward your weakest subjects, with mock-exam days built into the calendar and a lighter final-3-day taper before your exam. It replaces "keep working through the list" with "spend your remaining days where they'll move your score most."

1. Weakness-weighted days — the schedule leans toward the subjects your logged data shows are weakest, so your strongest topics stop eating your remaining time.
2. Mock days built in — full-length mocks are scheduled into the calendar rather than left to whenever you feel ready.
3. A final-3-day taper — the last three days before your exam are deliberately lighter, so you arrive rested instead of fried.

One thing to be clear about up front: the Sprint is opt-in and never auto-activates. StudyRise will invite you when the timing is right, but nothing about your plan changes until you say so.

Activate it from the Dashboard

You don't start a Sprint from the Plan screen. Once you're within 28 days of your exam, a Revision Sprint nudge appears on your Dashboard, inviting you to switch into the tighter, weakness-weighted mode. Tap Activate Sprint there and the schedule builds itself.

1. Get within 28 days of your exam date — the nudge appears on your Dashboard automatically.
2. Tap Activate Sprint on the nudge. This is the only place activation happens — not the Plan screen.
3. A Sprint tab appears in Plan's view toggle, with your weighted schedule already built.

The Sprint schedule

After activation, open Plan and switch to the Sprint view. You'll see your remaining days laid out one by one: revision days weighted toward your weakest subjects, mock-exam days at their scheduled points, and the final three days visibly lighter. Nothing to configure — it's built from your logged data.

1. Open Plan and pick the Sprint tab in the view toggle — it only appears once a Sprint is active.
2. Follow the day-by-day schedule: weak subjects get more days, and mock days are marked in the flow.
3. Expect the final 3 days to be deliberately lighter — that taper is the plan, not slack.

Sprint mocks

Once a Sprint is active, the Mock Exams screen gets a Sprint mocks section at the top, suggesting when to sit your next scheduled mock. The cadence is roughly every four days, tapering off before your exam — frequent enough to track your trend, spaced enough to act on what each one tells you.

1. Open Mock Exams — the Sprint mocks section sits at the top of the page while your Sprint is active.
2. Sit the mock on (or near) its suggested day — roughly every four days, with the cadence tapering off as your exam approaches.
3. Log each result with the per-subject breakdown, so the next stretch of Sprint days keeps pointing at your real weak spots.

The final 7 days: the T-minus checklist

The Sprint hands over to one last piece of scaffolding. In your final 7 days, a T-minus exam-day checklist appears on your Dashboard — a navy countdown card with five items, three of which tick themselves from your data.

1. The five items: test-center route confirmed, ID/documents ready, a recent mock completed, no new material, and sleep schedule adjusted.
2. Three items tick themselves automatically from your data; two you tick yourself.
3. The no new material item auto-checks itself in your final 3 days — which lines up exactly with the Sprint's taper.
