Are you on pace for a thesis? The words a week it takes from here.

Words left and the deadline in, the words a week it takes — and whether the writing you really do covers it.

Working it out…

Questions

The weekly number, in plain words.

How many words a week does a thesis take?
Put in your department’s word count. 60,000 is only a starting figure. Spread evenly, 60,000 words is 5,000 words a week over 12 weeks, 2,307.7 words over 26 weeks and 1,153.8 words over 52 weeks.
What if I’m behind on writing a thesis?
Divide what’s left by the weeks left: that is your weekly number from here. With 30,000 words left and 8 weeks to go it’s 3,750 words a week; with 6 weeks to go, 5,000 words. Every week that slips raises it, which is why it pays to check your pace each week rather than near the end.
How can I check each week that I’m on track for a thesis?
Ceresis Core turns a thesis into a weekly target. You log what you did in one line; it measures every week against that target, says how far ahead or behind you are, and plans the catch-up over the days left. Pace checks and the weekly review are on the free plan and work without AI.

The plan around it

One number at the centre. What holds it up, in orbit.

An example plan for a thesis: the weekly number, and the sleep and routine that decide whether you keep it. Drag it, tilt it, share it with someone who keeps you honest.

Bringing the map up…

Drag a node to move it · drag space to pan · scroll or pinch to zoom · open a tracker to name its readings

Solid bodies are on target this week; hollow ones are short. Make it yours: edit this plan

Knowing the number is the easy part

Weeks slip one missed evening at a time. Ceresis measures what you actually do against that weekly number, names the day you fall behind with a catch-up plan that fits the days left, and sends a weekly review with one change for next week. Free, without AI.
