and the amount of time spent creating the work of art that is a revision timetable?

my revision timetable for my first A levels was exquisite - a work of art

the one for my second A levels was scruffy and altered as the need arose

To be totally sure of the correlation though it's important to use colour. Lots of colours.
Really it's like it's a grade per colour, so for As then you must use at least 5 different colours.

Grin. Obviously. Also when I used to get ahead of my timetable I would always have to do a completely new one. All As (no A* for O levels!!) so it must be true!

My son requires a break after lunch to recover from eating before he can start work again.

The thing that cracks me up, is that though it's obviously a tool of procrastination, the creation of the timetable, also requires 'breaks' to recover.

It would be nice to think so bit I'm pretty sure that no such correlation exists.
There is, however, a proven link between the time spent on, and artistic merit of, mind maps and spidograms of individual revision topics.
Perhaps the timetabler could be ushered more in that direction?
