Tips for preparing a study schedule
It’s important when devising a study schedule to start by organizing your schedule into a table or chart that shows all of your classes and regular appointments for each week. There should be a space to write your class timetable for each day and an area to keep track of practices, meetings and regular appointments.
Once your table is set up you can make a space for each subject and designate a time to study for each one. Use a highlighter if that helps it stand out and keep you organized. It’s important to stay organized because you are likely to have up to nine high school subjects a day to keep straight, and are not likely to have any spare periods.
Get your priorities straight
The biggest challenge when preparing a study schedule is often deciding which subject to study first. Prioritizing your study period can take practice.
-First, start with subjects you need to be prepared for the next day.
-Also your compulsory subjects should be put at a higher priority than optional subjects.
-Figure out approximately how long it will take you to complete assignments and plan your study time around that schedule. If you have a big project coming up, spread out the assignment throughout your study week.

Preparing a study plan is essential! I use the index of textbooks and the course syllabus as a main guide. Just xerox them and then go down the list assigning a percentage to each one based on how much I know.
