Welcome back
What are we grading today?
Build an answer key and print scan-ready sheets, then photograph the filled sheets for a per-topic report in minutes. Multiple-choice is read by code against your key — never guessed.
How it works
- 1 Create your test & print the sheet
- 2 Students fill it in
- 3 Scan & get a per-topic report
Step 1 of the flow
Create a test
Build your answer key and print a scan-ready sheet. Once a student has filled it in, open Scan & check to upload a photo and get the report.
- 1 Build key
- 2 Print sheet
Pick more room than you need — extra rows stay blank.
Student ID block & numeric answers — optional
Students bubble the digits; the code grades them automatically (no AI). Enter the correct answer below.
How many digit columns to print (e.g. 3 → answers up to 999).
Numbered right after your keyed MCQs on the sheet.
Answer key
Mark the correct answer for each question. You don’t need to fill the whole sheet — the number of answers you mark = the length of your test.
Printed as write-in boxes. You grade these by hand in the report.
“Continue” numbers them right after the last question you keyed (not the sheet size).
Fill one in → Gemini grades strictly against it. Leave it empty → it grades by the IB standard and flags for your review. You can always correct the marks in the report.
Step 2 of the flow
Scan & check
Upload a photo of a filled answer sheet and get the report. Multiple-choice is graded by code against your key — no AI guessing.
Check a filled sheet
Choose the test you built, add a photo of the student's filled sheet, then press Check.
Can’t find your test? Enter its id
The id is printed on the sheet and in the QR code.
Auto matches the number the student filled on the sheet to your roster. Pick a name to override.
Photograph the sheet straight and upright — flat, good light, all 4 corner markers in frame. A tilted or skewed photo reads worse.
Multiple-choice is graded by code against your key — no AI guessing. Nothing is graded blindly.
Review what we read
Check the answers we read from the photo. Fix anything flagged, then confirm — nothing is graded until you do.
Reading the sheet and scoring against your key…
Usually 10–20 seconds. Multiple-choice is graded instantly; written answers take a little longer.

Everyone gets a unique code automatically. Type a name and press Enter to add.
Add exam — print answer sheets
One sheet per student: their code is pre-filled (bubbled in) and their name is printed at the top, so you always know whose sheet it is.
Who is sitting this exam?
Untick anyone absent today — they’re skipped on the printout only. This does NOT remove them from the class.

Lowest class score first. A very low score can mean a topic to reteach — or a confusing question to rewrite.
