ICSE and ISC recheck: mark your answers again first
CISCE lets ICSE and ISC candidates apply for a recheck of their marks, and for re-evaluation of answers, through their school or the CISCE portal within a few days of the result. Both are paid per subject or per question.
Proctor AI helps you decide whether it is worth it. Upload the answers you have, whether that is a copy of the script, your pre-board paper on the same pattern, or the answers you write out again from memory, and it marks them against the scheme with a reason for every mark.
What CISCE offers after results
- Recheck: the marks are added up again and the script is checked for any answer left unmarked.
- Re-evaluation: a fresh examiner marks the answers you name.
- Both are applied for online in a short window after the result is declared.
CISCE announces the dates, the fees and the exact steps with each year's result. Follow the notice on cisce.org or ask your school, which normally forwards the request.
How to get a second opinion with Proctor AI
- Upload your answer sheet copy: Photos or one PDF of the evaluated answer book the board gave you. Every page, in order if you can.
- Add the question paper and marking scheme: Attach the question paper. If the board has published a marking scheme or model answers, add that too, so the marking follows the same scheme your examiner used.
- Read the question-by-question report: You get the marks Proctor AI would give each answer and the reason. Put them beside the examiner's marks on your copy. The biggest gaps are the questions to look at first.
What the second marking can show you
| What to look for | How the report helps |
|---|---|
| An answer that got fewer marks than the scheme allows | Marks each step and point against the scheme and shows which ones earned credit |
| An answer or a part that was not marked at all | Every answer on every page is read and given its own line in the report |
| Marks that do not add up to the total on the cover | Gives you its own total per question, so you can add the examiner's marks and compare |
| A correct method that lost everything for a small slip | Gives partial credit for method, the way step marking is meant to work |
| Answers written out of order or continued on a later page | Matches each answer to its question, wherever it sits in the booklet |
Frequently asked questions
What if I do not have a copy of my ICSE or ISC answer script?
Write your answers out again as closely as you remember them, or upload your pre-board paper for the same syllabus. It is not the same as the real script, but marking it against the scheme tells you whether your expected score and your actual score are far apart, which is the question a recheck answers.
Does it follow the CISCE marking pattern?
It follows the scheme you attach. Add the specimen paper's marking scheme or your school's scheme for the same paper, and it marks point by point against that.
Will this increase my marks?
No tool can promise that. Proctor AI marks your answers again and shows where its marks differ from the examiner's. Only the board can change a result, and its re-evaluation can lower marks as well as raise them. The report helps you decide which questions, if any, are worth challenging.
Is it free?
Yes, to start. The free plan gives 10 AI gradings a month. Checking a paper uses one grading for the answer sheet and a little for reading each page of the question paper, so a typical paper uses 2 to 3, which is 3 to 4 full papers a month. You need a free account so your papers stay private to you.
Is my answer sheet kept private?
Yes. Your uploads are visible only in your account, are encrypted in transit and at rest, and are not used to train AI. You can delete them at any time.
How accurate is the marking?
On clear handwriting it agrees with a human examiner on most answers, and it says so when it is unsure of a word or a mark. It is weakest on very untidy writing and faint scans, so photograph the pages in good light.
