{"vsSaveMyExams":{"heroTitle":"Scholarly vs Save My Exams: Examiner-Written Revision, or Revision Made From Your Files","heroSubtitle":"Save My Exams is a library written by examiners against specific exam-board specifications, and it is very good at being exactly that. Scholarly writes nothing in advance — it reads the folder you already have and builds flashcards, quizzes, Summaries, audio and video out of it.","ctaSubtitle":"Bring the folder you already have.","finalCtaTitle":"Revise the lessons you actually sat","finalCtaSubtitle":"Upload your class notes, a textbook chapter or a lesson recording, then choose what gets built from them.","comparisonRow0":"Who writes the revision material","comparisonRow0ScholarlyVal":"Generated from your files","comparisonRow0CompetitorVal":"Written by their examiners","comparisonRow1":"Board-specific revision notes for AQA, Edexcel, OCR, WJEC and Cambridge","comparisonRow2":"Past papers and topic question banks","comparisonRow3":"Practice questions and mock exams written to a specification","comparisonRow4":"Builds study material from a file you upload","comparisonRow5":"Chat that answers from a document you provide","comparisonRow6":"Flashcards","comparisonRow6ScholarlyVal":"From your own material","comparisonRow6CompetitorVal":"Premade by topic","comparisonRow7":"Spaced repetition scheduling in review","comparisonRow8":"Audio overview of your own material","comparisonRow9":"Narrated video lecture built from your own notes","comparisonRow10":"Mind maps and slide decks from your notes","comparisonRow11":"Covers a course with no published revision guide","comparisonRow12":"Official mobile app","comparisonRow13":"Free access to get started","comparisonRow13CompetitorVal":"Free account, limited notes","strength0Title":"Written by people who have marked the papers","strength0Body":"The notes are produced by examiners and subject teachers against a named specification, which is a slower and more expensive way to make revision material than any of the alternatives. It shows in the accuracy: the emphasis matches what the board actually rewards, and the worked answers are written the way a marker wants to read them. No tool generating from your own notes can tell you what an examiner is looking for.","strength1Title":"The question bank is the real asset","strength1Body":"A very large library of resources across GCSE, IGCSE, A-Level, IB and AP, sorted by topic and by board, means you can drill one weak subtopic for an hour without going looking for material first. Attempting questions is the highest-value revision activity there is, and having them pre-sorted removes the last excuse not to start.","strength2Title":"Board coverage is genuinely broad","strength2Body":"AQA, Edexcel, OCR, WJEC, Cambridge, Oxford AQA and CCEA are all covered, which matters enormously if you sit a less common board and are used to discovering halfway through a resource that it was written for a different syllabus. The site is used at a scale few revision sites match, and that scale is why the coverage reaches as far as it does.","advantage0Title":"It knows what your teacher taught, not just what the board published","advantage0Body":"Two classes on the same specification are not taught the same way. Your teacher's slides, the worksheet you were set, the textbook edition your school bought, the definitions you were told to memorise — Scholarly builds from those, so the wording you revise is the wording you were given.","advantage1Title":"A term of note-taking becomes testable","advantage1Body":"A folder of lesson notes is a record of attendance, not a revision resource. Upload it and it comes back as cards, a practice quiz and a condensed Summary, which turns the writing you did in class into something you can be examined on rather than something you reread and feel vaguely reassured by.","advantage2Title":"Revision you can listen to","advantage2Body":"From the same upload Scholarly can produce an audio overview and a narrated video lecture. Reading is not the only way in, and for a topic that refuses to stick off the page, being taught it again in a different form is often what finally breaks the deadlock.","advantage3Title":"Coursework, EPQs and courses nobody publishes for","advantage3Body":"A published library has to choose which qualifications are worth writing for, and most are not. A BTEC unit, an NEA, a first-year university module, a professional exam — Scholarly does not need anyone to have written for it, only for you to hold the material.","advantage4Title":"The review schedule arrives with the cards","advantage4Body":"Cards generated in Scholarly drop into study modes that bring them back on a spaced-repetition schedule, weighted towards whatever you keep getting wrong. That is the difference between owning revision material and doing revision.","advantage5Title":"Traceable back to the source","advantage5Body":"Every card, answer and summary points at the page or slide behind it, so a claim that looks off can be checked against the original in one click. That check is simply not available on a summary of a source you do not hold.","closerLook0":"Save My Exams sells one thing and sells it well: revision written to a specification by people who have marked that specification. Notes, topic questions, past papers, flashcards and mock exams across GCSE, IGCSE, A-Level, IB and AP, spanning AQA, Edexcel, OCR, WJEC, Cambridge, Oxford AQA and CCEA — a very large library used by a very large number of students. A free account gets you through the door with limited access to the notes, and a subscription opens the rest, billed monthly, quarterly or annually.","closerLook1":"The limitation is structural rather than a fault. Everything on the site was written before you arrived, for the average candidate on your specification. It cannot see the handout your teacher wrote, the thirty pages you filled in class, the textbook edition your school actually bought, or the recording of the lesson where the thing finally made sense. And if your course is not one they publish for — a BTEC unit, a coursework project, a university module, a professional qualification — there is nothing there for you at all, and there is not going to be.","closerLook2":"There is also nothing adaptive about it. You read the note, you attempt the questions, and you decide for yourself what deserves another look. No schedule pulls your weak topics forward, there is no audio version for the days you cannot face reading, and there is no official app — the phone app carrying the name in the App Store is published by an unrelated third-party developer, which is worth knowing before you install it.","closerLook3":"Scholarly does the other half of the job. Point it at what you hold — lesson notes, slides, a chapter photographed on your phone, a recording — and it returns cards on a review schedule, a quiz, a condensed Summary, a mind map, an audio overview or a narrated lecture, each one traceable to the page it came from. It cannot tell you how a board marks a six-marker; only an examiner can. So the honest recommendation is not to swap one for the other. Read their notes to learn what the board wants, build your revision out of your own class material, and test yourself against their questions.","relatedLink0Title":"GCSE revision with AI","relatedLink0Description":"Make GCSE revision material out of the notes you took in class.","relatedLink1Title":"A-Level revision with AI","relatedLink1Description":"Work from your own A-Level handouts, slides and lesson recordings.","relatedLink2Title":"Revision notes generator","relatedLink2Description":"Compress a chapter or a term of notes into something short enough to learn.","relatedLink3Title":"Revision timetable maker","relatedLink3Description":"Decide what to revise and when, before you decide how.","relatedLink4Title":"UCAS points calculator","relatedLink4Description":"Check what your predicted grades are worth in UCAS tariff points.","relatedLink5Title":"PDF to flashcards","relatedLink5Description":"Turn a scanned chapter or a set of slides into a deck.","faq0Question":"Is there a good Save My Exams alternative?","faq0Answer":"It depends what you are replacing. For examiner-written notes and board-specific question banks there is no substitute, and pretending to be one would not help you. If what you need is revision material for your particular course — including the many courses nobody publishes revision guides for — Scholarly builds it from the notes, slides and recordings you already have.","faq1Question":"Is Save My Exams free?","faq1Answer":"There is a free account, and it gives you limited access to the revision notes. Full access to the notes, the question banks and the past papers sits behind a paid subscription sold monthly, quarterly or annually. Scholarly has a free plan you can start on without a card, and paid plans that raise the limits when you need them.","faq2Question":"Is Save My Exams worth it?","faq2Answer":"For a student on a mainstream GCSE, IGCSE, A-Level, IB or AP specification who wants topic questions to drill and notes that match their board, yes — that is a real service and it is difficult to replicate. It is worth considerably less if you sit a course they do not cover, or if your problem is not finding material but getting through the material already on your desk.","faq3Question":"Can Scholarly write revision notes for AQA or Edexcel?","faq3Answer":"Scholarly does not hold the specifications, so it will not write to a board the way an examiner does. What it does is condense the material you give it — including a specification document or your teacher's scheme of work, if you upload one — into notes, cards and questions that follow your source rather than a generic outline.","faq4Question":"Can I use both?","faq4Answer":"Yes, and most students on a supported board should. Their notes and question banks tell you what the exam expects; Scholarly turns your own lessons into something you can practise on the days between attempts at their papers. Neither one is doing the other's job.","faq5Question":"Does Save My Exams have an app?","faq5Answer":"There is no official app. An app under that name exists in the App Store but is published by a third-party developer with no stated connection to the site, so look closely at what you are installing. Scholarly has no native app either — it runs in a browser on a laptop or a phone.","faq6Question":"What can Scholarly build from a set of class notes?","faq6Answer":"Flashcards on a spaced-repetition schedule, a practice quiz, a condensed Summary, a mind map, a slide deck, an audio overview and a narrated video lecture — plus a chat that answers questions from the notes with the page attached. Photographed pages, PDFs, slides, documents and recordings all work as input.","seoTitle":"Save My Exams Alternative for Your Own Class Notes","seoDescription":"A Save My Exams alternative for courses they do not publish: turn your own notes and recordings into flashcards, quizzes and Summaries with study guides.","seoFeature1":"Revision built from your own class notes and slides","seoFeature2":"Flashcards with spaced repetition scheduling","seoFeature3":"Quizzes and condensed Summaries from one upload","seoFeature4":"An audio overview you can revise by listening to","seoFeature5":"Works for courses with no published revision guide","seoFeature6":"Answers cited back to your source page","seoFeature7":"Free plan you can start on without a card","seoKeyword1":"save my exams alternative","seoKeyword2":"save my exams free","seoKeyword3":"sites like save my exams","seoKeyword4":"is save my exams worth it","seoKeyword5":"alternative to save my exams","seoKeyword6":"save my exams vs scholarly","seoKeyword7":"revision notes from your own material","seoKeyword8":"a level revision app","seoKeyword9":"ib revision tool"}}
