Set the timer to 102 minutes

How to use the online timer

Blocking out 102 minutes for exam prep only helps if you stick to it, and having a countdown running makes the session feel real instead of open-ended. Start the timer, break the stretch up with short pauses, and treat the final beep as the point where you stop, not just a suggestion. A defined finish line makes it easier to sit down and start in the first place.

Press Start and away it goes, counting down on its own without needing you to babysit it every few seconds. The only real rule is keeping this browser tab open, since the countdown pauses along with the page if you close it or shut the browser down entirely. Right at zero, a sound plays to let you know time's up, clear enough to hear from the next room over.

Setting an egg timer or fumbling with a phone app both work, but neither is as quick as a browser tab you already have open. There's no app store, no update prompt, and no login screen between you and starting the count. It's free and needs no registration, it works on any device with a browser, and closing other tabs won't affect it as long as this one stays open. Set a timer for 102 minutes, set the timer to 102 minutes, start a 102 minutes timer — it is the same countdown either way.
