How do you calculate hours per study day?
Divide total hours by weeks, then by study days per week: (total ÷ weeks) ÷ study days. Example: 24 h over 4 weeks with 5 study days → 1.2 h per study day.

A study time calculator splits a total hour goal across subjects, weeks, and study days—showing hours per subject, weekly load, and a daily study target with Pomodoro-style session counts for exam planning.
Even split across subjects and weeks; real schedules may need manual adjustment.
Loading study planner…
Enter total study hours, number of subjects, weeks until the exam or deadline (or pick an exam date), and how many days per week you study. The calculator divides hours evenly—or by custom weights—across subjects and time so you get per-subject totals, average hours per week, and a daily study target with minutes and ~25-minute Pomodoro sessions.
Three modes: split total hours by weeks, count down to an exam date, or work backward from hours available per study day. All math runs in your browser; plans can be saved locally and shared via link.
Divide total hours by subjects and weeks first, then by study days per week for a realistic daily target.

Divide total hours by weeks, then by study days per week: (total ÷ weeks) ÷ study days. Example: 24 h over 4 weeks with 5 study days → 1.2 h per study day.

The planner assumes an even distribution of total hours across subjects and an even weekly pace across the timeline. Per-study-day load uses active study days only.
Formula
hours/study day = (total hours ÷ weeks) ÷ study days per weekSet the total hours you want to complete before the exam or course end (e.g., 24 hours).
Split hours by weeks, pick an exam date for automatic timeline, or enter daily hours to see how many weeks you need.
Enter active study days (e.g., 5)—not calendar days if you rest on weekends.

Input
24 total hours · 3 subjects · 4 weeks · 5 study days/weekOutput
8 h/subject · 6 h/week · 1.2 h/study day24 ÷ 3 subjects = 8 h each; 24 ÷ 4 weeks = 6 h/week; 6 ÷ 5 days ≈ 1.2 h per study day.
Input
20 total hours · 4 subjects · 2 weeks · 6 study days/weekOutput
5 h/subject · 10 h/week · ~1.7 h/study dayHigher weekly load with more study days—good for short deadlines before midterms.

How this calculator differs from reading-time and GPA tools in the EverydayTools suite.
| Tool | Splits hours by | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Study time calculator | Subjects, weeks, study days | Total-hour goals across a term |
| Reading time calculator | Words/pages and WPM | How long reading will take |
| GPA calculator | Grades and credits | Term GPA estimates |
| Work hours calculator | Shifts and breaks | Job schedule totals |
Set study days per week to the days you actually study—overstating days makes daily targets look unrealistically small.
Enable weighted subjects and enter comma-separated percentages, or add extra hours manually for harder courses.
