This tool helps you check a structured written answer against a short list of criteria that you judge yourself. It suits students who write full answers in explanation, interpretation or argument tasks and want a clear revision checklist.

Structured-answer self-review
You wrote a long answer and cannot tell which part of it is weak.
Everything you enter stays on this device.
How do I use it?
- Choose a practice task: a science explanation, a literature interpretation or an opinion answer.
- Write or paste your answer into the box.
- Tick every criterion your answer already meets. Be strict with yourself.
- Press Review my answer.
- Read the suggestions for unticked criteria, compare with the annotated sample, then revise your answer.
How does it work?
Each task has five criteria that describe a well-built answer, such as a clear claim, exact evidence and an explanation that links them. Every criterion comes with a revision prompt.
The tool counts your ticks and lists the unticked criteria as suggestions. It never reads your text for meaning. The only check on the text is that it is not empty, because an empty answer cannot be reviewed.
The sample answer marks each criterion in brackets, so you can see where it appears and copy the structure, not the words.
A worked example
Task: explain why a metal spoon feels colder than a wooden spoon. You write a three-sentence answer and tick “clear claim” and “correct science terms”, but not “explains the mechanism”.
The review says you ticked 2 of 5. It suggests: say what happens step by step: heat moves from the warmer hand into metal faster than into wood.
You add one sentence about heat flow and tick the criterion again. The result is your own revised answer, not a mark.
What are the limits?
The criteria are original practice guides, not an official rubric. The tool cannot tell whether your facts are correct or whether a tick is honest. It has three practice tasks, so it does not cover every subject or question type.
How does it connect to the lessons?
Structured answers matter in Additional Science, Adab and Balaghah, Tamil and Arabic. For a worked example of textual evidence, read how to support a literary interpretation with precise textual detail.
Log the gaps you find in the mistake log tool. If you want a teacher to read your answers with you, see the one-hour trial class (from RM50).
Common questions
Does this tool mark my answer?
No. You tick the criteria yourself and the tool only counts your ticks and lists suggestions. It does not read your text, give a mark or predict a grade, and it is not an official rubric.
What if I leave the answer box empty?
The tool asks you to write or paste an answer first and shows no summary. A score built from nothing would mean nothing, so none is created.
Is an unticked criterion a lost mark?
No. It is only a suggestion for revising your own answer. Real marks depend on the question, the subject and the mark scheme your teacher or school uses.
Is my writing stored or sent anywhere?
No. The text stays in the page on your device and disappears when you reset or close the page. Nothing is uploaded.
A teacher in a one-to-one lesson can read your answer beside you and show why a criterion you ticked is still thin, which a checklist alone cannot do.
