Grade middle school final exams with AI

English, math, science, social studies: Correxio reads your students' finals, handwritten or digital, and proposes a score for each criterion of your rubric, so exams come back graded while students still remember them.

Built for finals week

What end-of-year exams ask of a middle school

Finals week puts every 8th-grade section through the same written exams, then leaves each teacher alone with several stacks of papers. Correxio handles the first read, subject by subject, and leaves the final word on every score to you.

  • ✓

    Your common rubric, criterion by criterion

    Enter the rubric you already use, copy your department's common-assessment scoring guide, or let the AI draft one from the exam. Each criterion carries its points, in quarter-point steps, and a description of what you expect.

  • ✓

    Every written section

    Constructed responses in English, multi-step math problems, lab questions in science, document-based answers in social studies: the AI reads handwritten answers, diagrams, figures and maps included.

  • ✓

    Three sections, one batch

    A final for three sections of 30 students on double sheets is about 360 pages per subject. Upload them all at once: papers are graded in parallel and you start reviewing as soon as the first one is ready.

  • ✓

    Comments where the mistake is

    Annotations sit on the paper, right where they apply, along with a two-to-three-sentence overall comment. Students see what cost them points and what to work on before high school.

  • ✓

    Criterion-level scores in one table

    The CSV export breaks every score down by rubric criterion: you see right away whether the essay, the fractions problem or the map question pulled the grade-level average down, and where to focus next year's planning.

In practice

A final exam graded in four steps

One batch per subject and per stack: English on one side, math on the other, each with its own rubric.

  1. 01

    Upload the exam

    PDF, photo or Word, with your answer key if you have one. While you import the papers, the AI drafts a rubric question by question.

  2. 02

    Import the papers

    A whole class scanned into one PDF is split into papers, file by file or page by page; a late paper can be photographed on a phone after scanning the QR code on screen. Crooked photos are straightened automatically.

  3. 03

    Adjust the rubric and launch

    Set the points to match your common assessment, then launch grading. Each student's name is masked before the AI reads the paper.

  4. 04

    Review, then hand back

    Click a question and the scan scrolls to the student's answer. Confirm or change each score, then export the CSV and the annotated PDFs, or the whole batch as a ZIP.

Your questions about grading finals

Are state or district rubrics built in?

No, no official rubric is built in. You enter your own, copying your district's or department's scoring guide if you like, or start from the one the AI drafts from the exam. Your rubric is always the one that counts.

How many pages is a final exam?

Pricing counts graded pages of student work; the exam, answer key and rubric don't count. Three sections of 30 students on a double sheet (4 pages) make about 360 pages per subject. The free plan offers 30 pages a month to try it on a few papers; paid plans offer 250 or 500.

Can our team split the grading of a common assessment?

Each Correxio account is individual: there is no shared space between colleagues yet. Each teacher grades their own sections in their own account, and can enter the same rubric as the rest of the team so the whole grade level is scored against the same grid.

Is my students' work protected?

Each student's name is masked before the AI reads the paper, data is hosted in France, and papers are never used to train a model. You reveal names for the whole batch when you choose to, during review.

What about hard-to-read handwriting?

The AI reads most handwriting, but a barely legible or poorly scanned paper can be misread. That is why review stays essential: the AI's score is only a proposal, and nothing is exported without your approval.
