A realistic 4-week plan for Tanzania students: content coverage, timed drills, and AI feedback loops to improve faster.

4-Week Structure

  1. Week 1: Baseline diagnostics in all core subjects and weak-topic mapping.
  2. Week 2: Daily focused sessions on weak topics plus one timed mixed set.
  3. Week 3: Full exam-style practice every 2 days with post-test review.
  4. Week 4: Final consolidation, speed drills, and exam-day readiness checklist.

Weekly Plan by Subject

Apply this framework to each subject below. Keep sessions short, measurable, and reviewed at the end of each week.
