Why choose WISCA?

WISCA is about the whole routine around a test. It sets the paper in the board's pattern, reads the answer circles off your scans, and tells you which chapter the class did not get. You still decide everything that counts.

Why not just use a general chat tool to make papers?

A general chat tool can draft questions. WISCA also gives checked answer keys, a copy for each student with a page code, scanning and marking, and results by chapter, all in one place.

How is it different from an OMR machine?

The circles are on each student's own printed paper, so no separate form is needed. WISCA reads them from a phone photo or a scanner, matches each page to its student by its code, and goes on to written answers, results by chapter and revision.

Why not keep marks in a spreadsheet?

A spreadsheet only holds the numbers you type. WISCA fills the grid from your scans, keeps a history of every change, and turns the marks into which chapter to reteach.
