You've seen it all over TikTok

The viral traffic-light method — without the spreadsheet.

The TikTok traffic-light method is brilliant… but setting it up is a pain. Instead of spending hours building spreadsheets, we've already built it for you. Every HSC dot point across 15 subjects, ready in one tap.

In minutes, not weeks

Know exactly where you stand — in minutes.

No more staring at a blank syllabus. Rate what you know, mark what counts, and let the plan sort the rest.

Traffic-light your confidence

Go through the syllabus and tag each dot point red, amber or green. In one sitting you can see your whole course at a glance.

Flag your priorities

Star the topics that carry the most marks or scare you the most. Your priorities rise straight to the top of the pile.

Get your plan

A study plan builds itself around your weak spots and deadlines, so every session hits the stuff that actually moves your marks.

The library

Fifteen subjects, every dot point.

Mapped straight to the current NSW syllabus. Pick yours and start colouring.

The confidence map

Your whole course, in five colours.

Every dot point gets one of five honest colours — from dark green, nailed it all the way to red, I'm cooked. In one sitting, your whole course becomes a map of exactly where you stand.

  • Five colours, from mastered to "cooked"
  • See progress per topic and per subject
  • Spot the red patches you've been avoiding

Priority stars

Not all dot points are equal.

Some topics carry more marks, come up every year, or just terrify you. Star them and they jump to the front of your plan — so your limited hours go where they matter most.

  • Mark high-value and high-stress topics
  • Starred + red = your true weak spots
  • The plan weights them automatically

Study recipes

How to actually study — not just what.

Knowing a topic is red is half the battle. Each session comes with a simple, proven recipe so you're doing real retrieval practice instead of highlighting the same page for the fifth time.

  • Short, structured, active-recall steps
  • Built around how memory actually works
  • Finish by re-rating your confidence

Why it works

Grounded in how memory actually works.

Active recall beats re-reading

Pulling an answer out of your own head is one of the most reliably effective ways to learn. Passive highlighting feels productive but fades fast.

Spaced repetition fights forgetting

Revisiting a topic just as you're about to forget it strengthens the memory each time. The plan spaces your reds so they resurface at the right moment.

Rating turns dread into a plan

Naming what you don't know is weirdly calming. Once every topic has a colour, "I'm so behind" becomes a short, specific list you can actually work through.

These are well-established principles from learning science — no magic, no gimmicks. The app just makes them easy to follow when it's late and you're tired.

Questions

Good to know.

It's a study tool that turns the NSW HSC syllabus into a checklist you can rate. You colour each dot point by how confident you feel, flag your priorities, and get a personalised plan that focuses your time on your weak spots.
Every syllabus dot point gets a colour: red means you don't know it yet, amber means it's shaky, green means you're confident. Tapping cycles through them. Seeing your whole course in colour makes it obvious where to spend your next study session — and watching reds turn green as you learn is genuinely motivating.
Fifteen subjects across the main faculties: Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Health & Movement Science; Maths Advanced and Standard 2; English Advanced and Standard; and Business Studies, Legal Studies, CAFS, Modern History, Ancient History, Studies of Religion and Visual Arts — every dot point mapped from the current syllabus.
Your ratings are yours. Your confidence colours and priorities are saved for your use so you can pick up where you left off — they're not sold or shared, and the whole thing is designed to work quietly in the background of your revision.
The dot points are drawn from the current NSW HSC syllabus for each subject, so what you're rating matches what you're actually examined on. It's a study companion, not an official NESA product — always check your school's guidance for the final word on your course.
