Multiple AP tests, limited time, high stakes. Our AI-powered planner creates a personalized study schedule across all your exams so you can score 4s and 5s.
A 5 can change your college trajectory

AP scores show colleges you can handle rigorous coursework. Stand out in applications.
Enough AP credits can let you finish college a semester earlyโor double major.
Specialized strategies for each exam type
When to start and what to focus on each month
Register for exams. Note all your AP classes. Create study blocks in your weekly schedule. Start strong in classโit's easier to maintain than recover.
Review first semester material. Identify weak areas. Start supplementing with review books. Take your first practice test to benchmark.
Active review begins. Focus on weak units. Practice FRQs weekly. Start timing yourself. Join or form a study group.
Full-length practice exams every weekend. Analyze mistakes ruthlessly. Focus on high-yield topics. Fine-tune time management.
Light review onlyโno cramming. Focus on rest and confidence. Review your best notes. Trust your preparation.

How to handle multiple exams in one week
Don't blow it on the day that matters
The night before, stop studying by 8pm. A rested brain performs better than a crammed one. Seriously.
Protein, not sugar. Your brain needs fuel for 3+ hours. Eggs > energy drinks.
Two pencils, two pens, two calculators if allowed. Murphy's Law is real on exam day.
Find your room, use the bathroom, settle your nerves. Rushing = panic = worse performance.
"I took 5 APs junior year and thought I was going to die. Centauri helped me spread out the prep so I wasn't cramming for everything at once. Got 5s on four of them!"
"The unit mastery feature saved me. I thought I knew AP Chem until I rated myself honestly. Spent the last month on my weak units and jumped from a 3 to a 5."
"First generation college student here. Had no idea how to prep for APs. Centauri's timeline told me exactly what to do and when. Got enough credits to skip freshman year!"
