Ten days. Seven subjects. Zero preparation.

That was my situation in the final year of college. I still remember the moment the exam timetable dropped. I had just 10 days to study seven full subjects… and honestly, I hadn’t even opened some of the books.

But something clicked.

I created a simple but focused strategy:

  • Broke down each chapter by topic
  • Wrote 7–8 page notes per subject
  • Spent the last 3 days just revising smart

That system worked. I ended up scoring 85% — my highest academic score ever.

What If I Had ChatGPT Back Then?

While I didn't have AI tools back then, I keep thinking how tools like ChatGPT could’ve saved me hours.

If you’re a student today, your exam prep can be 10x smarter and faster — without cheating.

Imagine being able to:

  • Summarize chapters into short notes instantly
  • Ask questions to clarify difficult concepts
  • Generate practice questions and revision tests
  • Build a personal study assistant on-demand

Sounds unreal? It’s not.
