What AI grading means on Mingi
After you solve a worksheet, Mingi scores each question — MCQs instantly, short and long answers with rubric-style feedback against the model answer and marking scheme. The result is a report card you can reopen anytime, not a one-time chat reply.
School tests and tuition mocks often return a total days later. Mingi is built for formative assessment: low-stakes checks during revision that tell you what to fix before the next session. See the glossary entry on formative assessment for how this differs from summative board exams.

Report card
Open /report/[id] for totals, section breakdown, and weak-topic tags. History links graded papers here instead of resuming.
Mastery
Topic scores update learnability_metrics — dashboard and parent PIN view reflect real graded data.
| On the report card | Not included |
|---|---|
| Total marks and percentage for the attempt | Live teacher video explanation of every step |
| Per-question awarded marks and max marks | Official CBSE board marksheet (this is practice) |
| Written feedback referencing your answer | Guaranteed identical marks to a human examiner on subjective long answers |
| Topic tags tied to each question | Replacement for classroom concept introduction |
| Link shareable from graded history and parent dashboard | Chat logs or unstructured AI conversation history |
Student, parent, and teacher angles
| Role | Do this | Avoid this |
|---|---|---|
| Student | Read feedback on the two lowest-scoring questions; plan one retry topic for 48 hours later. | Skipping to model answers before reading why your answer lost marks. |
| Parent | Weekly 10-minute scan of recent report cards — compare topic trends, not just total percent. | Re-teaching the full chapter because one drill scored 45%. |
| Teacher | Ask students to bring graded breakdowns to doubt period — remediate one misconception, not the whole unit. | Expecting AI to match your discretion on every 5-mark long answer without student context. |
Formative loop that actually sticks
Sunday: one 20-mark worksheet on the weakest dashboard topic. Wednesday: open the report card together — one misconception only. Friday: retry that topic or celebrate consistency if mastery crossed 60%. This rhythm matches how formative assessment is meant to work.
How topic feedback feeds the next paper
Each graded question carries a topic label. Mingi aggregates those scores into learnability_metrics — your mastery percentage per subject and topic. When a topic stays below 60%, it surfaces on the dashboard as weak. The next worksheet you generate should target that chapter, not a random PDF section.
- Complete a graded worksheet on tonight's weak chapter.
- Open /report/[id] and note which sub-topics lost the most marks.
- Wait 48 hours — same-day retries overestimate retention.
- Generate another 20-mark paper on the same topic if mastery is still sub-60%.
- Escalate to 50 marks once that topic crosses 60% — mix in neighbouring chapters.
What AI grading cannot replace
Mingi does not teach a chapter for the first time. If your child has never understood quadratic factorisation or organic nomenclature, a human teacher or tuition block still comes first. AI grading excels after class: volume, instant feedback, and weak-topic queues. It does not replace nuanced board-exam judgment on every handwritten long answer — use it to find gaps, then bring hard doubts to a teacher.
Parents: PIN-gated visibility
The parent dashboard links to recent report cards for linked student profiles — mastery trends from real attempts, not estimated activity. Access is PIN-gated. Children's data is not sold to advertisers under DPDPA 2023 alignment. See the parent guide for a full weekly rhythm.
CBSE vs ICSE: same grading engine
You select curriculum at onboarding. CBSE papers lean on MCQ plus short and long answers with case studies where applicable; ICSE papers often weight structured short answers heavily. The grading pipeline is the same — syllabus context in the prompt, per-question rubric against the generated marking scheme. Report card layout does not change; topic tags map to the chapters you selected before generation.
Quick takeaway
- Report cards are the product — totals without per-question feedback waste practice time.
- Grading is free per session; generations are the metered resource on paid tiers.
- One misconception per review beats re-teaching entire chapters.
- Formative drills weekly; summative full mocks monthly before pre-boards.
