For teachers
Set a baseline test for your class from the class page, in one lesson: online, or on paper with a one-page answer sheet that is read from a photo. Print the question paper and mark scheme, release results when everyone has finished, and see each student's gaps and the class's weakest topics. It works with a free class too.
Questions
Is the baseline test free?
Yes. The test, the result and the topic report are free. Sign in with a free account (Google, Microsoft or email) so your result is saved; there is no payment and no card. Teachers use it free with a class too: printable papers, answer sheets and the class report come with a free teacher account.
How long does it take?
20 multiple-choice questions, about 40 minutes. A calculator is allowed. A teacher can set it as a timed test.
Can it be done on paper?
Yes. A teacher prints the question paper and a one-page answer sheet. Students fill in one bubble per question; a photo of the sheet is read for you. The bubbles are read twice (on the device and with AI), and any question where the readings disagree is shown on screen to check. Everyone can also answer online by clicking A, B, C or D.
