You planned 22 hours. You did 9.
At least, I did. Last year I planned about 22 hours of study a week and actually did about 9. It wasn't a knowledge problem — I knew the revision methods, I'd read the same advice you have. It was a follow-through problem. The plan was fine on Sunday night. By Wednesday it was fiction.
That gap — between the plan and what actually happens — is the thing almost nobody measures. So I started measuring mine.
The Gap
The Gap is a free 6-minute tool: you plan your next 3 study days, and it marks the plan like an examiner marks a paper. What's realistic, what's decorative, what's missing. You keep the marked plan either way.
The full tool is still being built — it goes live here. Join the list below and I'll email you when it's up.
Why I'm building this
I spent the last year building myself a Mac app that acts like a coach: it notices when I'm drifting off my own timetable and gets on my back before the week is gone, without me having to open it and confess. It works on me — which proves nothing. That's why I need testers who are not me.
The privacy deal is simple and non-negotiable: the coach sees window titles and app names only — never screenshots, never page contents, never keystrokes. And your parents never see your behavioural data. Not a dashboard, not a report, not "just usage."
Honest caveats
macOS only, for now.
It's a coach, not a note generator — it will not do your work.
No payment info exists anywhere in this.
If The Gap decides your problem is subject knowledge rather than consistency, it tells you that and points you at free resources instead, because you'd waste your time with us.
Founding Tester deal. First 20 testers: if this ever costs money, you get 33% off for as long as you're subscribed. The beta itself is free. The cap of 20 is real — when it's full, it's full.
