UPSC Mains answer evaluation, the way the examiner reads it

Write your answer on paper, upload a photo, and get back a marked copy: remarks in the margin beside the line they are about, marks for each part of the question's demand, a model answer and a short list of what to improve.

New accounts get 125 free points after a quick check — enough for 3–4 evaluated answers.

  • Margin remarks tied to the exact line
  • Marks per demand, not a guess
  • Model answer with every copy
  • Usually back within the hour

What gets checked

Whether the answer meets the demand of the question; the structure — introduction, body and conclusion; facts, data, examples and committee or report names; presentation and word count; and, for GS IV, the case-study approach. Every claim that you are wrong is checked against the platform's study library before it reaches you.

Every Mains paper

GS I, II, III and IV, the Essay, and optional subjects — 10, 15 and 20-mark answers, each marked against how that paper is marked, not a single fixed formula.

Hindi and English medium

Write in Hindi and you get Hindi remarks and a Hindi model answer. Hindi-medium answers are read and marked with the same care as English ones.

Practise on real questions

Thousands of previous-year Mains questions are ready to answer, sorted by paper and syllabus topic, or write on your own question.

Union and the States. The 15th FC kept the States' 2Add: horizontal criteria (population, area, forest)
share at 41% and suggested grants to local bodies.
However, cesses and surcharges stay outside the 3Right point — give one figure

What a marked copy looks like

Remarks sit beside the line they are about, in plain words. Marks follow the demand of the question — introduction, each part of the body, conclusion — not a fixed formula.
