Exam Countdown

Exam Countdown came out of something I kept noticing as a tutor — students genuinely didn't know when their exams were. Official timetables are scattered across exam board websites as dense PDFs, and most students never look at them until it's too late to plan properly.

The site is free to use. Students pick their subjects and exam board, and get a personal dashboard counting down to each paper. Cards can be reordered by priority, saved across devices, and themed however they like. It covers every major UK board — AQA, Edexcel, OCR, WJEC, Eduqas, and CCEA.

It's a small tool, but it does one thing well: turns exam season from a vague source of dread into something you can actually plan against.
