Every lecture is a block.
Fill yours before the exam.

Free study guides built from each course's own lectures, labs and past exams. Read a step, answer it, and the block fills. Made by a student at Maastricht University; no account needed.

85 blocks. Pick one.

Each block is one lecture or one set of past papers, cut into short steps you read and answer. Select a block to see what's in it.

The numbers are counted from the guides as they are published, and the exam dates are the official ones. Try the question: answering fills that block, the same way it does in the guide.

Six ways to fill it.

Use whichever fits the evening; every one of them fills the same blocks. Select a block below to jump to it.

1 / 6 · Read

One small step at a time.

Each lecture is cut into short steps with the slide numbers they came from. Pick Simpler or More detail when a step doesn't land.

Mark a step read and its block turns a shade fuller.

2 / 6 · Answer

Answer, and know at once.

Questions come from the course's own past papers and mocks. Pick an answer and you see why it's right, or exactly why it isn't, with the source.

3 / 6 · Play

Five minutes, on your phone.

Play rounds are short drills built only from the guides' checked material. What you miss comes back a few questions later, and again when you're about to forget it.

Tap True or False, or press T and F.

4 / 6 · Ask

Stuck? Ask the tutor.

The tutor knows the course you're in. It explains, checks your reasoning, and points to the lesson and the slide it's answering from.

An example exchange; the source cards are real sections of the guide.

5 / 6 · Plan

A plan that fits your week.

Tell it when you're free. It spreads what's left over the days before each exam, puts the critical lessons first, and ends every course with a timed mock and your mistakes.

An example week around the next real exams.

6 / 6 · Offline

Works on the train.

Save a guide for offline and it keeps working without a connection. Install it and it opens like an app, on the guide you used last.

Find your programme.

7 guides so far, for two programmes in two faculties. Each one follows its course's lectures in order and ends with the past papers.

Also inside.
