What is the difference between "Timetable" and "Schedule"?

For instance:
Does timetable mean a list of time for studying, and does schedule mean a plan of things to do? Perhaps I am wrong and are these words synonyms?
 
It depends on context/use. Most often they can be used interchangeably. Provide some examples.

While you think about some examples to give us, please note my corrections above.

1. I have to make a presentation on the schedule.
2. I have an English lesson yesterday in the timetable.

Can they be used interchangeable here?

Neither of your sentences is natural. Do you mean the following?

1. One of the things on my schedule is to give a presentation.
2. My timetable yesterday included an English lesson.

Yes, I do. Can I use these words in these two different contexts as synonyms?
 
In those two sentences, either word would work. Don't take that to mean that the two words are always interchangeable.
