What 6 weeks is used for

Six weeks, or 42 days, is a common recovery period after surgery, the length of many short courses and school half-terms, and a standard follow-up interval for check-ups. Six weeks from today falls on the same weekday as today.

How the date is counted

The start date is day 0. Adding 42 days moves forward one calendar day at a time, through weekends, holidays, month ends and leap days, and the date you land on is the answer. Because 6 weeks is a whole number of weeks, the answer is always the same weekday as the start date.

Answer = start date + 42 days
