How to use the study focus self-check
This page breaks study habits into eight items, asks you to rate each from 0 to 4, and converts the total into a score out of 100 as a self-check scale. The items cover how long you put off starting, how long a single sitting lasts, phone checks, planning and finishing a daily workload, keeping your space clear, holding breaks to their planned length, and logging what you covered. Rate all eight and you get the converted score plus the item you rated lowest.
The arithmetic is plain: each item scores 0 to 4, the total is divided by the maximum and multiplied by 100. No item is weighted more heavily than another. The lowest and highest items are picked from the ratings alone, and when several share a value the earlier item is shown.
This score is an arbitrary scale, not a validated psychological instrument. It therefore does not conclude that your focus is poor or place you at any level, and it attaches no label. It also cannot be compared with anyone else's score. Answering the same items again in two or three weeks and watching where your own number moves is as far as this tool goes.
