Built specifically with a focus on organization and printability, this project-ready template enables users to plan study schedules, track progress across multiple subjects or courses, monitor deadlines, set goals, and analyze study efficiency—all in one structured Excel workbook.

Formulas Required for Automation
- Status Auto-Completion: In cell I, use:
=IF(G2="Completed", TODAY(), "") - Prioritized Task Filter: Use FILTER or advanced IF statements to show only high-priority tasks.
- Progress Tracking (Dashboard): Formula to calculate completion %:
=COUNTIF(TaskTracker!G:G, "Completed") / COUNTA(TaskTracker!B:B) * 100 - Overdue Tasks: Use:
=IF(AND(D2"Completed"), "Overdue", "") - Weekly Time Allocation: Sum estimated times per subject:
=SUMIFS(TaskTracker!F:F, TaskTracker!C:C, "Mathematics")
Conditional Formatting Rules
- Overdue Tasks: Highlight red if due date is before today and status ≠ Completed.
- Prioritized Tasks: Apply yellow background for "High" priority level.
- Scheduled Time Slots: Use green fill if a task has been completed or scheduled.
- Progress Bars (Dashboard): Insert data bars to visualize completion percentages across subjects.
User Instructions
