University revaluation: check your answer script first
Many universities, including VTU, Anna University and the University of Mumbai, let you apply for a photocopy of your evaluated answer script and then for revaluation. The fee is charged per paper, and a failed attempt costs you both the fee and the time before the next exam.
Proctor AI marks the script again so you can judge the odds. It reads long written answers, derivations, numericals, diagrams and code, marks each one against the scheme or the model answer you attach, and explains every mark.
How university revaluation usually works
- Apply for the photocopy of the answer script within the window the university announces after results.
- Check the script for totalling mistakes and unvalued answers, which most universities correct without a full revaluation.
- Apply for revaluation of the paper if the marks still look too low for what you wrote.
Every university sets its own rules: some allow revaluation only after a photocopy, some limit it to theory papers, and a few offer a challenge evaluation after that. Read your university's exam notification for the fee and the last date.
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
Should I apply for revaluation or write the supplementary exam?
That depends on how far you are from the pass mark and how confident the second marking is. If the report finds only a mark or two, a supplementary exam is the safer plan. If it finds a clear gap across several answers, revaluation is worth considering. The decision is yours.
There is no published marking scheme for my paper. Does it still work?
Yes. Attach the question paper and Proctor AI marks against the expected answer for each question at that level. If you have a model answer or the scheme from a faculty member, add it for a closer match.
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.
Get a second opinion before you pay for re-evaluation
Upload your answer sheet copy with the question paper. You get marks for every question with the reason for each one. Free to start: the free plan covers 3 to 4 full papers a month.
