How the dates and plan work

Dates come from the official pages below. A date we only know roughly stays off your calendar file. Your school or test centre has the final word on your own papers and times.

The weekly plan is ours: learn new topics first, exam questions from 8 weeks out, timed practice in the last 2 weeks.
