Why time a practice paper.

Knowing the material and finishing the paper are two different skills, and only one of them gets practised in untimed revision. A past paper sat against the real clock shows where the time goes: the question you spend too long on, the section you never reach. Finding that out in a mock is much cheaper than finding it out on the day.

✦ What it is for

What people use an exam timer for.

Past papers at home

The real length, no notes, and the phone in another room.

Mock exams in class

Full screen on the board so every student sees the same time left.

Timed sections

Practise one section at a time against its share of the total.

Professional and language exams

Anything with a fixed time limit, from a driving theory test to a language exam.

✦ How to

How to use the exam timer.

1

Pick a length

It starts at 1 hour. The presets underneath switch to another length in one click, and the custom field takes any number of minutes.

2

Press start

The ring starts emptying and the tab title counts down, so you can see the time left from another tab.

3

Leave it running

Switch tabs, lock the phone, let the laptop sleep. It counts to a fixed end time, so it stays correct.

4

Get the alarm at zero

A chime repeats until you stop it, and a browser notification arrives if you allowed one. Reset to go again.

Before the day

A mock tells you what to revise. A timetable makes sure you do.

The exam revision plan maps every topic against the weeks left, with past papers as the check that it worked. Install it and the weeks are laid out from today, with the exam at the end.
