Modus Ordo

Made for Queensland senior students

Modus Ordo is built around how senior school works in Queensland: QCAA General subjects, internal assessments and external exams, a syllabus of dot points for every subject, and four terms a year.

Senior school, the way it actually works

How the app handles QCAA senior school
In senior schoolIn Modus Ordo
Internal assessments (IAs)Each IA is its own item with the due date, conditions like the word count, a draft checkpoint, steps, and time spent against time needed. The Planner spreads the steps over the weeks.
External examsExam season shifts the plan towards revision. Practice exams run timed, with planning time, in study sessions.
Syllabus dot pointsEach subject’s syllabus is a table of dot points with your confidence and when you last saw each one. Topic pages link to the dot points they cover.
Simple familiar to complex unfamiliarPractice exam results break down by Simple familiar, Complex familiar and Complex unfamiliar, so you can see where the marks went.
Four terms a yearPlan has a Term view, the week shows the term and week number, and holidays get their own pace.
Formula and data bookletsStudy sessions can open a formula and data booklet in a side panel next to the question.

Know which dot points are shaky

The syllabus table makes gaps visible early: a dot point you haven’t seen in weeks, or one marked shaky, is a candidate for tonight’s revision rather than the night before the exam.

An ATAR study planner, honestly

Your ATAR comes from your subject results, and no app can promise a grade or a rank. What a planner can do is help with the groundwork: keep each IA on schedule, put revision where your weak spots are, protect sleep in exam season, and show you honestly how each subject is going.

Academic integrity. QCAA expects assessed work to be your own, and your school sets the rules about using AI. The Tutor is built not to write assessed work, and draft feedback is comments only. If you’re unsure what’s allowed, ask your teacher first.

Not in Queensland?

The planner, tasks, notes and study sessions work for any school. Terms, assessment names and the syllabus features are built around QCAA first, so some of it will feel more at home in Queensland.
