exam-prep-planner
Build a realistic exam-prep schedule with spaced repetition and retrieval practice — the plan that survives contact with an actual week. Use when asked to plan my exam prep, make a study schedule, I have N weeks until finals, or how do I study for multiple exams. Produces a day-by-day plan across all exams: spaced blocks, retrieval-first sessions, weak-topic weighting, and built-in slack for the days that go wrong.

# Exam Prep Planner Skill Most study plans are written for the student the planner wishes existed: six perfect hours daily, no bad days, rereading counted as studying. This skill plans for the student who exists — retrieval practice over rereading, spacing over cramming, weak topics weighted, and slack built in, because a plan that dies at its first missed day was never a plan. ## What This Skill Produces - **The day-by-day schedule** — all exams interleaved, sessions with named topics and *methods* - **Retrieval-first sessions** — every block says what to *do* (blurt, past paper, teach-back), never "review chapter 4" - **Weighting** — weak and high-value topics get the prime slots and the most spaced repeats - **Slack and triage** — catch-up buffers, plus the pre-agreed what-to-drop list if time collapses ## Required Inputs Ask for these if not provided: - **Exams, dates, and formats** — all of them; single-exam plans that ignore the others aren't plans - **Topic lists with self-rated confidence** (red/yellow/green per topic — honest ratings) - **Real available hours** — after work, sport, life; the actual number, not the aspirational one - **What "studying" has meant so far** — r

What does the exam-prep-planner skill do?

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills --skill exam-prep-planner --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills, a repository with 1,255 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
