Mark my answer
Paste (or dictate) an exam-style question and your answer. I'll mark it against your board's style.
Paste your answer, add the question and the mark scheme if you have it, and get feedback the way an examiner would give it: what you hit, what you missed, and why.
Yes — this AI marker is genuinely free with no signup. Paste a GCSE or IGCSE answer plus the question (and the mark scheme if you have it), and it returns mark-scheme-style feedback: the points you earned, the ones you missed, and how command words like evaluate or explain change what markers look for.

Paste (or dictate) an exam-style question and your answer. I'll mark it against your board's style.
Paste the question, paste your answer, and if you have the mark scheme paste that too. The marker reads your answer the way an examiner reads it: against the command word, the assessment objectives, and the levels or points in the scheme. For a 6-mark science question it will tell you whether your answer reads as level 2 or level 3 and what is missing to move up. For an essay subject it checks whether you answered the question actually asked — evaluate needs a judgement, explain needs a because-chain, compare needs both sides linked in the same sentence. You get the points you earned, the points you missed, and a suggested mark. Without a mark scheme it still marks against typical schemes for that question type, but pasting the real one always gives sharper feedback.
It marks typed or pasted text. It cannot read a photo of your handwritten mock paper — you need to type the answer out. Typing is annoying, but it takes a minute and you often spot your own mistakes while doing it. It also does not store your work: there is no account, nothing is saved after you leave the page, and nothing is used to train anything. And the suggested mark is a guide, not a guarantee. Real GCSE papers are marked by trained examiners applying one specific scheme, sometimes after standardisation meetings about single borderline phrases. An AI marker gets you close — usually within the right level — but do not walk into results day quoting it.
Most lost marks are not knowledge gaps — they are command word mismatches. Describe asks what happens; students write why it happens and earn nothing for the extra effort. Evaluate needs strengths, weaknesses and a conclusion that actually commits. Compare answers written as two separate paragraphs about each thing score lower than answers that link them line by line. The marker flags these mismatches explicitly, because that is the fastest mark gain there is: same knowledge, restructured to fit what the question asked. If you do one thing with this tool, paste in three past-paper answers you have already written and count how many marks were lost to structure rather than content. For most people it is a genuinely uncomfortable number.
It handles AQA, Edexcel, OCR and Cambridge IGCSE question styles, across essay subjects and sciences. Mark schemes differ between boards more than students expect — AQA science 6-markers are level-marked while many Edexcel questions are point-marked — so the single most useful thing you can do is paste your own board's scheme next to your answer. Schemes are free on the exam board websites under past papers. Maths and other working-based subjects are better served by a step-checking solver; this marker is strongest on written answers, from a one-sentence 2-marker up to a full essay.
I pasted an AQA Biology question — explain how water moves from the soil into the root hair cell and up the plant (6 marks) — with an answer that described osmosis correctly but never mentioned the water potential gradient, root hair surface area, or transpiration pull. The feedback came back: level 2, 3 to 4 marks. It listed what earned credit (osmosis defined, movement from dilute to concentrated named correctly), what was missing for level 3 (the continuous transpiration stream, evaporation from the leaf creating the pull), and one command-word note — the answer described the process, but the question asked to explain it, so each stage needed a because. Rewriting with those three additions took five minutes, and the rewrite came back at level 3, 5 to 6 marks.
Actually free. No trial, no locked daily limit you hit after three uses, no ads. I am a student and I keep the site running on cheap AI models, which is why it can stay free. If that ever changes I will say so plainly on the site, but there is no plan to charge.
No — this tool marks typed or pasted text only. Photos of full handwritten scripts are not supported, and I would rather say that upfront than waste your time. Type the answer out; it takes a minute and you will often catch slips of your own while doing it.
Usually within the right level, or a mark either way, when you paste the real mark scheme — less precise without it. It follows how published schemes award points, but it is not a trained examiner and borderline judgements can go either way. Trust the written feedback more than the number.
No. There is no signup, so there is no account to store it under. Your answer is sent to the AI model to be marked and is not saved by the site afterwards. Close the tab and it is gone — which also means copy your feedback somewhere before you leave.
Marking your own practice answers is revision, not cheating — it is the same as someone reading the mark scheme against your work. Cheating would be getting AI to write assessed work for you. This tool marks what you wrote; it does not write anything for you.
