Five subjects, one exam week: how to study without losing the plot
Finals aren't one exam — they're a pile-up. Exam Packs let you group the notes for each subject, set each exam's date, and let Lumo order your whole revision by what's most urgent.

A single exam is a manageable problem. Exam week is a different beast: five subjects, five dates, one brain, and the constant nagging sense that you're studying the wrong thing right now. The stress isn't the material — it's the juggling.
Exam Packs are built for the juggle.
Group each subject, once
An Exam Pack is a container for a run of exams. For each subject you gather the notes that matter — up to five per subject, so you're forced to keep it to the essentials rather than drowning in every file — and set that exam's date and target. Biology on the 12th, Chemistry on the 15th, History on the 18th.
Now the whole season lives in one place instead of scattered across your head and a dozen sticky notes.
Lumo orders the chaos for you
Here's what a pack does that a to-do list can't: it prioritises by urgency automatically. The subject whose exam is soonest, and whose material you've covered least, rises to the top. As dates approach and your progress changes, the ordering shifts. You always know the single most valuable thing to study next — which is the exact decision that paralyses students during finals.
Each subject still gets the full Exam Planner treatment underneath: a day-by-day schedule from your own notes, a required-daily-time estimate, and automatic re-balancing when you miss a session.
One dashboard for the whole week
Open the pack and see every exam at a glance: countdowns ticking down, progress bars filling, which subjects are on track and which are slipping into the red. The anxiety of exam week comes largely from not being able to see it — a pack turns a vague dread into a concrete, shrinking list.
Built on what you already have
Packs don't ask you to reorganise your life. They sit on top of the notes and folders you've already made in Lumo — a subject is just a folder of notes, a pack is just a set of exams. Nothing new to learn; you're only telling Lumo the dates.
Set up your exam season
If your calendar has more than one exam on it, a pack will make the next few weeks calmer. Create a free account, group your subjects, and let Lumo tell you what to study today.
