MediZen is a comprehensive productivity system designed for students to manage tasks, classes, habits, budgets, and goals seamlessly. It integrates the P.A.R.A. framework, gamification, and academic tools like spaced repetition and Cornell note-taking to enhance efficiency. With features like a finance tracker, goal tracker, and journalling system, MediZen ensures students can balance academics and personal life effectively.
"The average student spends 53% more time organizing their work than actually doing it. What if you could flip that ratio?"
Let me paint you a picture you'll recognize instantly: It's 2AM. Your desk looks like a stationery store exploded. You've got seven browser tabs open for "how to focus when tired," three half-empty coffee cups, and that biology textbook you swear you'll start... tomorrow. Sound familiar?
MediZen is here to change that. It's not just another productivity app—it's what happens when a medical student who ranked in the top 1% of his class decides to bottle his system for academic success.
🧠 Your Third Brain: Why Students Need MediZen
Modern students juggle more than ever:

⚡ The Core Features That Make MediZen Different
1. The Gamified PARA System
Based on Tiago Forte's legendary organization method, but with a student twist:
Turn assignments into "quests" with XP rewards
Visual priority matrix shows what to tackle first
Automatic deadline tracking with stress-reducing countdowns
Unlike clunky apps like Trello or Todoist, MediZen understands student-specific needs—like tracking both lectures AND laundry day.
2. Evidence-Based Academic Hub
Medical student Adam Ho baked in techniques that actually work:
Spaced repetition scheduling built into your calendar
Cornell note templates that force active recall
Lecture tracking that automatically calculates study needs
One Oxford medic reported: "I went from cramming to consistent 80%+ scores using just the built-in study scheduler."
3. Life Beyond Textbooks
Where other student planners fail, MediZen excels:
Finance tracker that prevents "ramen-only" months
Relationship reminders so you don't ghost friends during exams
Habit stacking for exercise, meditation, and sleep
As King's College student Ria Vijay puts it: "MediZen gives me a way to compartmentalize med school from everything else!"
