BacII Countdown Timer

A countdown web application that helps Cambodian students track important BacII exam dates with a clean, responsive countdown timer interface.

Overview

A countdown web application that helps Cambodian students keep track of their BacII exam date. BacII, short for Baccalaureate II, is Cambodia's national high school exit examination that all Grade 12 students must pass to earn their diploma and qualify for university admission. The exam is a significant milestone in every Cambodian student's academic journey, and the weeks leading up to it are filled with intensive preparation. This app provides a simple, always-visible countdown so students can stay aware of exactly how much time remains before their exam day.

Why I Built This

As a student who went through the BacII preparation process, I understood the anxiety and time pressure that comes with this exam. Many students lose track of how quickly the exam date approaches while juggling study schedules across multiple subjects. I wanted to create a lightweight, distraction-free tool that students could bookmark and check daily to stay motivated and on schedule. The app intentionally avoids unnecessary features to keep the focus entirely on the countdown itself, serving as a constant visual reminder to make the most of each remaining day.
