Free tool
MCAT study schedule generator
Enter your exam date and weekly hours, and get a week-by-week plan across all four sections. Free, no sign-up.
How to use your schedule
- Put each week on your calendar. Turn the hours into set blocks, or the plan stays a wish.
- Review every full-length exam. Going through what you missed and why is where the score moves.
- Move the plan when life moves. Missed a week? Rebuild from today instead of squeezing it in.

Questions
How long should I study for the MCAT?
It depends on your background and target score, so there is no single right number. Many students study for several months. This tool warns you if your total hours look tight, as a rule of thumb, not an official figure.
How does this schedule split my time?
About the first 55% of your weeks go to content review, the next 25% to passages and question sets, and the rest to full-length exams and reviewing them. The last days before the exam stay light. Sections you mark as weak get more hours each week.
Is my information saved or sent anywhere?
Your date and choices stay in your browser. We count that a plan was built and how many weeks and hours it has, but never your exam date.
Is this official MCAT guidance?
No. This is a general planning tool from Habidu, not affiliated with or endorsed by the AAMC. Check the AAMC site for official dates, rules and prep materials.
Is the generator free?
Yes, free with no sign-up. If you want reminders to actually start each study block, the Habidu app can run your days for you, and it is free to try.
