This is what a Likhit evaluation report looks like — and why it makes you better
Not a screenshot of a score. A complete breakdown: AI feedback comment, per-axis scores with written feedback, a strengths list, improvements, and the specific missing points that matter in answer writing. Here's a sample evaluation.
What Likhit evaluates
Four axes, honestly scored
Overall Score & Grade
Every answer gets a score out of the total marks available (10, 15, or 20 for GS; 125 or 250 for Essay) and a grade from A+ to D — designed around the UPSC Mains marking framework. These are AI-generated practice scores, not official UPSC marks.
Per-Axis Breakdown
Introduction, Content, Structure, and Conclusion are scored separately with written feedback for each. You see exactly where you're strong and where you're losing marks — not just an aggregate number.
AI Feedback Comment
A 3-5 sentence AI-generated written comment: what the answer does well, what its central weakness is, and what a stronger version would include. Generated for your specific answer against the rubric.
Missing Points
The most actionable section — specific facts, examples, arguments, or frameworks that a strong answer would include but that your answer didn't. These are your revision targets.
Real example
Sample question & Likhit evaluation
“Analyse the factors responsible for the feminisation of agriculture in India. What are its implications for food security and rural development? (GS1/GS3, 15 marks)”
A decent attempt that correctly identifies male migration as the primary driver and covers the feminisation phenomenon across the supply chain. The answer is factually grounded but analytically thin — listing factors without explaining the structural reasons behind them. The implications section is one-dimensional (only food security, minimal rural development). Conclusion is weak. Stronger answers would have cited NSSO/Census data on women's agriculture share and linked feminisation to land rights and institutional credit gaps.
Basic opening. Consider leading with the statistic that women perform 60-80% of agricultural labour but own only 12.8% of land — this immediately signals the paradox at the heart of the question.
Factors covered: male migration (good), MGNREGS labour shortages (partial), low-skill task feminisation. Missing: structural factors (land title barriers, credit access, SHG limitations), NSSO data on feminisation trends, implications for productivity and institutional gaps.
Two sections present but not clearly labelled. Implications section is significantly shorter than the factors section — shows imbalance in preparation.
Generic conclusion with no specific recommendation. Cite the Mahila Kisan Sashaktikaran Pariyojana (MKSP) or land titling reform as a targeted way forward.
Strengths
- Correct identification of male out-migration as the structural driver of feminisation
- Good mention of women's dual burden: agricultural labour + unpaid domestic work
- Recognises the paradox: more women in agriculture but less women with formal rights
Improvements
- → Add data: NSSO 2018 — women constitute 63% of agricultural workers in India
- → Expand implications: land rights gap (12.8% ownership), institutional credit exclusion, post-harvest value chain exclusion
- → Cite specific government scheme: MKSP under NRLM for women farmer empowerment
Missing points
- • Women's land ownership: only 12.8% of operational agricultural holdings owned by women
- • Kisan Credit Card coverage gap — women farmers have significantly lower access to institutional credit
- • Kerala model: gender-responsive agricultural extension as a comparative success case
Common patterns to avoid
Common mistakes to avoid
Candidates who see a 10/15 and move on miss the point. The score tells you where you are; the per-axis feedback and Missing Points tell you how to move. Read the entire report before the next practice question.
Missing Points are curated to be the most high-value items for a strong UPSC answer. Each one is a knowledge or framing gap. Spending 10 minutes researching each item converts weaknesses into future strengths.
The AI feedback comment identifies the central structural or analytical weakness in your answer. Most candidates read it once and forget it. Read it again after rewriting your weakest section — it's the clearest signal of what to fix.
An improving overall score can hide a stagnating Content score. Track per-axis scores over time to ensure you're improving across all dimensions, not just getting better at the sections you were already strong in.
Action plan
How to improve your score
- 1After reading a Likhit report, write a 3-line improvement plan: (1) Which axis to fix, (2) What Missing Points to research, (3) One structural habit to change. Keep this plan visible during your next practice session.
- 2Use the Evaluations page to identify your weakest paper over the last 10 evaluations. Shift 40% of your practice to that paper until the score gap closes.
- 3Re-attempt questions you scored B or below after 2 weeks of targeted preparation. The score difference tells you whether your revision is working.
- 4Compare per-axis scores across papers. If your Conclusion scores are consistently 60-65%, the problem is a habit, not a paper-specific issue. Fix the habit with targeted conclusion practice.
- 5Build a personal "common mistakes" list from your Likhit history. The same gaps appearing in 3+ evaluations are systemic — they need a deliberate fix, not just more practice.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What does a Likhit evaluation report contain?
A Likhit report contains: (1) An overall score and grade (A+ to D), (2) Per-axis scores for Introduction, Content, Structure, and Conclusion with written feedback for each, (3) An AI feedback comment summarising the answer's quality, (4) A Strengths list — what you did well, (5) An Improvements list — what to fix in the next attempt, (6) Missing Points — key facts, examples, or arguments you didn't include.
How accurate is Likhit's scoring compared to official UPSC evaluation?
Likhit provides AI-generated practice feedback designed around the UPSC Mains four-dimension rubric. Scores may differ from human or official UPSC evaluation and do not guarantee exam performance. Likhit is not affiliated with UPSC. The model is designed to identify structural gaps and content weaknesses in answer writing.
How long does it take to get an evaluation report?
Most evaluations complete in 30–90 seconds, depending on page clarity and system load. For handwritten answers with multiple pages, OCR processing may take longer. You'll see a progress indicator while the evaluation runs.
Can I see my previous evaluation reports?
Yes. All your evaluation reports are saved in your Evaluations page. You can filter by paper, sort by date or score, and track your improvement over time.
What should I do after reading a Likhit evaluation report?
Three steps: (1) Read the per-axis feedback and identify your lowest-scoring axis — this is your immediate priority. (2) Read every item in "Missing Points" and research each one — these are knowledge gaps. (3) Rewrite the weakest section of the answer before moving to your next practice question. The feedback is most useful when you act on it immediately.
