Academix Advanced Assessments
Build Practice, Mock and Real Tests From One Question Bank
The Academix lets you run practice tests with instant feedback, timed mock tests and scheduled real exams, all built from one question bank with the scoring rules your target exam uses.

"Advanced" on this page means two specific things: how many question formats a single assessment can mix, and how much control an institute has over how each one gets scored. The Academix supports nine question formats: multiple choice with one or more correct answers, true or false, numerical or fixed answer, fill in the blank (one blank or several), match the following, descriptive, file upload, and text with file upload. The objective formats grade themselves the moment a student submits, with partial credit for multi-answer MCQ, matching and multi-blank questions rather than all-or-nothing. Descriptive answers and the two upload formats go to a tutor. An assessment isn't locked to one format; a single test can mix objective and subjective questions, grading the objective ones instantly while the subjective ones wait on a human.
Scoring is where the depth shows. A standard class quiz sets positive marks, negative marks, and partial credit per question directly. A pooled real assessment, built for a full competitive-exam-style paper, goes further: instead of marking question by question, an institute defines a rules table that sets marks, partial credit, and negative marks by subject, topic, question type, and difficulty all at once, so a hundred-question paper scores consistently without hand-tuning each one.
None of this is useful if a question has to be rewritten every time it's needed, so questions live in a Question Library, separate from any one quiz: written once, pulled into a practice set this month and a real assessment next term. A level up from that, the Assessment Library saves a fully assembled test, structure and scoring rules included, so a paper built once attaches to a new classroom or batch as-is. Questions can also be extracted with AI from a paper you upload, and staff review any AI-drafted question before it is used.
Mock Tests
Mimic the conditions of real exams, allowing students to complete tests within a set duration. Upon submission or time expiry, results are instantly available, enabling students to review their performance, understand correct and incorrect responses, and gauge their preparedness for actual assessments.
Real-Time Assessments
Are meticulously scheduled by the institute to occur at specific dates and times, with a defined duration. These tests simulate the pressure and structure of formal examinations, with results being disclosed according to the institute's preference, either immediately post-exam or at a later time, manually.
Practice Tests
Offer a continuous learning tool where students receive immediate feedback on their answers. This instant validation helps in reinforcing knowledge and correcting misunderstandings as students progress through questions at their own pace.
Diverse Question Types
Supports multiple-choice questions (MCQs) with one or several correct answers, fixed text answer questions for precise, predefined responses, and free input questions that allow for open-ended answers to be manually graded by tutors.
Interactive Results Page
Provides a detailed, user-friendly interface for students to review their test outcomes, including an analysis of correct and incorrect answers, marks per question, and subject or topic-wise breakdowns. It also enables comparison with the top 10 students' performances, offering insights into relative standings and areas for improvement.
Scoring Flexibility
Allows for the specification of positive, negative, and partial marks to accommodate a wide range of answer correctness, so scoring matches the pattern of the exam students are preparing for.
Assessment Library
Enables the creation and storage of pre-designed assessments, which can be directly added to classrooms for immediate use or saved for future application across multiple classes, fostering efficiency and consistency in test administration.
Question Library Creation
Facilitates the development of a repository of questions that can be utilized to assemble tailored assessments, enhancing the relevance and challenge of tests to meet specific learning objectives.
How an Assessment Actually Gets Built
Write Questions Into a Shared Library, Not a Single Test
Every question goes into the Question Library first, independent of any one quiz, so a question written for one batch's practice set can be pulled into a different batch's real assessment later without retyping it.
Pick the Right Format for Each Question
Choose from nine formats per question. The objective ones grade themselves (MCQ with one or more answers, true or false, numerical or fixed answer, fill in the blank, match the following); descriptive, file upload, and text with file upload go to a tutor.
Set Scoring Rules to Match How the Target Exam Actually Grades
A class quiz sets positive marks, negative marks, and partial credit per question. A pooled real assessment instead uses a rules table keyed to subject, topic, question type, and difficulty, scoring an entire paper consistently.
Save the Finished Assessment and Attach It to a Class
The assembled assessment, not just its questions, saves to the Assessment Library, ready to attach to a new classroom or batch as a practice set, mock exam, or real test without being rebuilt from scratch.
Where Assessment Configuration Matters Most
Competitive Exam Centers
A full paper needs scoring that matches the target exam's own pattern. A subject/topic/difficulty rules table sets marks, partial credit, and negative marks across a hundred-question paper at once, instead of tuning each question by hand.
CA/CS Coaching Institutes
CA and CS papers lean heavily on written, descriptive answers that only a tutor can properly grade, and a question bank built for one exam cycle carries forward unchanged into the next, alongside the student progress that already carries over between cycles.
College LMS Deployments
A saved assessment can be built once and attached into as many classrooms as needed, which suits a college running the same semester paper across multiple sections of the same subject without rebuilding it each time.
Schools & Colleges
Different subjects call for different question formats, such as matching for a language class, fixed text for math and descriptive for essays, and a mixed-format test scores each part correctly instead of forcing everything into MCQs.
How Can We Help You?
The Question Library stores individual questions, reusable one at a time across any quiz. The Assessment Library stores fully assembled assessments, with the questions, their arrangement and the scoring rules together, so an entire pre-built test can be attached to a new classroom or batch as-is, not just its questions.
Nine: multiple choice with one or more correct answers, true or false, numerical or fixed answer, fill in the blank (one blank or several), match the following, descriptive, file upload, and text with file upload. The objective formats grade themselves on submission, with partial credit for multi-answer MCQ, matching and multi-blank; descriptive and the two upload formats go to a tutor.

Yes. Practice, Mock, and Real are modes an assessment runs in, not separate systems. A question written once in the Question Library can be pulled into any of the three for any batch, and a fully built assessment saved to the Assessment Library can be reattached the same way.
There is no tab-switch lock or on-screen watermark during exams; the fixed exam window is the main control.
