Buffered minutes = ceil(Base minutes × (1 + Buffer% ÷ 100)).
Standard mode block = Buffered minutes + Between-task break (except last) + Transition minutes (optional after last).
Pomodoro sessions = ceil(Buffered minutes ÷ Focus block).
Pomodoro focus minutes = Sessions × Focus block.
Pomodoro break minutes = Sum of short/long breaks after sessions (optionally skipping the final break).
Academic tasks rarely finish at the exact minute you expect. This calculator converts each task into a timed block, then sequences blocks from your chosen start time. The output provides a clear start and end time per task, so you can protect uninterrupted study windows and avoid late-night spillover. Priority, due date, and notes travel with each row, making the schedule usable for daily planning and submission deadlines.
Buffer percent adds controlled padding to every task using a rounded-up calculation. If a reading task is 40 minutes and you set a 10% buffer, the plan schedules 44 minutes. This small margin absorbs interruptions, difficult questions, or slow recall, while keeping totals predictable across the day. For unfamiliar topics, many students start with 15–25% and tighten the buffer as accuracy improves before exams or busy project weeks.
Standard mode schedules the buffered minutes directly, plus between-task breaks and optional transition time. Pomodoro mode splits buffered minutes into equal focus blocks, rounding up to complete blocks for consistency. It then adds short breaks, and a long break after a configurable number of sessions, creating a rhythm for sustained attention. The "skip last break" option helps you finish a final sprint without adding cooldown time you will not use.
The summary totals focus minutes, break minutes, transition minutes, and planned minutes. Efficiency is computed as Focus ÷ Planned, expressed as a percentage. When efficiency drops, reduce breaks, lower buffer, or merge tiny tasks. When efficiency is high but you still run late, increase buffer or transitions for realism. Transition minutes represent setup and context switching; even two minutes can prevent rushed starts and messy endings.
After you submit, the calculator stores the latest schedule in your session and enables CSV and PDF downloads. CSV is ideal for spreadsheets, tutoring logs, or time audits. PDF is suited for printing, sharing with a study partner, or pinning near your desk for quick compliance. Re-run the calculator after each change to compare end times and choose the plan that fits your available study window.
You can add multiple task rows and remove any you do not need. The form is designed for typical daily planning, and the schedule table will list each task with a start and end time after submission.
Buffer percent increases each task’s minutes to create a safety margin. The calculator rounds up to whole minutes, so small tasks still gain practical padding for interruptions, uncertainty, and slower-than-expected work.
Use Pomodoro when you want consistent focus blocks and structured recovery breaks. It is helpful for reading, revision, and problem sets where attention fades. Standard mode is better for single, continuous tasks like writing drafts.
Transitions represent setup and context switching, such as opening resources, arranging notes, or clearing your workspace. Breaks are rest periods. Separating them helps you choose realistic start and stop boundaries without sacrificing recovery time.
Pomodoro rounds planned focus up to full focus blocks so sessions stay uniform. The extra planned minutes act as a cushion if you run long. If it feels too generous, reduce buffer percent or increase the focus block length.
Downloads are generated only after a successful calculation and are tied to a temporary session key. If you refresh or start a new session, you may need to submit again to recreate the export links.
