How to use the Pomodoro for board reviewers
Pick one chapter or one practice set per focus block — start before you check social media, finish before you reward yourself. Use breaks to walk, hydrate, or change posture, not to scroll. After 4 focus blocks (one "set"), step away from the desk for the long break — that's when consolidation happens.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why 25 minutes?
It's the original Cirillo length — short enough that anyone can hold attention, long enough to make real progress on a problem set. Filipino learners doing board-exam reviewers often run longer (50 or 60 minutes) once they get into flow; the duration knobs below let you tune it.
Should I use this every day?
Use it on days when your motivation is wobbly or you have a deadline. On days when you're in flow, just keep going. Pomodoros are scaffolding, not a religion.
What about the long break?
Every 4 focus blocks, take a 15–30 minute long break. Get up, eat, walk. Brain consolidation happens during these — skipping them is why some reviewers feel sharp at hour 2 and useless by hour 6.
Does this play a sound?
Yes — a soft chime when each phase ends. Tab volume controls it. If sound is muted (e.g. you're at a library), the document title also flashes 'BREAK!' or 'FOCUS!' so a glance still tells you.
Can I customise the cycle counts?
Pick any focus / short / long duration in the form. We don't store anything in localStorage — refresh the tab and you're back to defaults. Keep this open in a pinned browser tab if you want to keep streaks.
