Addmen’s solution is purpose-built for the ACT exam pattern (multiple OMR sheets, essay component, scaled scoring). Key advantages include:
High Throughput & Accuracy — Process tens of thousands of answer sheets with error detection, validations, and quality checks.
Multi-sheet Merging / Unified Results — Combine responses from objective and essay sheets into one coherent result dataset.
Support for Essay / Subjective Scoring — Route essays for manual onscreen grading with grader workflows, double marking, adjudication.
Detailed Reports & Analytics — Section‐wise performance, item‑analysis, scaled score conversion, trend reports.
Integration & Data Export — Export results in formats (CSV, Excel, JSON), or connect to LMS / SIS via API.
Secure & Auditable — Role‑based permissions, audit logs, timestamped changes, data encryption.
Scalable & Reliable — Designed for large-scale examination programs across many test centers.
(Step-by-step process):
Test Definition & Template Setup
Define templates for ACT’s multiple sheets (e.g. OMR sheet for English, Math, Reading, Science; separate sheet for essay) and a master template to merge sheets.
Scanning & OMR / OCR Reading
Read OMR / OCR sheets in batch mode, detect errors (blanks, multiple marks), auto-flag questionable responses.
Merge / Combine Sheets
Use the master test template to merge data from objective and essay sheets into a unified candidate record for final reporting.
Scoring & Validation
Auto-score objective items per answer key (including negative marking or partial credit if needed). Validate anomalies or contradictions.
Essay / Subjective Grading
Route essay responses for manual / onscreen scoring. Allow blind marking, reviewer adjudication, grade reconciliation.
Publish & Export Reports
Generate detailed performance reports, cohort analytics, and export results or publish to online scoreboards.
Question Properties :There are Multiple property tags that can be applied for ACT.
OMR Test Definition : Separate Test Template is preset in the OMR Sheet Reader for each sheet ( P1 ACT and P2 ACT Essay) plus an additional master test (Master ACT) that will be used to combine the data of the two answer sheets.
Read OMR Sheets : Only the Test Part 1 (P1 ACT) and Test Part 2 (P2 ACT Essay) sheets have to be read.
Merge and Upload : Select the Master ACT Test template to merge the data of P1 ACT and P2 ACT Essay.
Import and Publish : Select the uploaded Data set and import in the defined Test.
ACT (as implemented) uses two OMR sheets:
Sheet 1: English, Math, Reading, Science sections
Sheet 2: Essay (scored by examiners)
The system displays odd‑numbered answer slots as ABCDE, even‑numbered slots as FGHJK in final output (to match ACT scoring conventions)
You can preset templates (P1 ACT for objective, P2 ACT Essay) and a “Master ACT” to merge.
The Third sheet is only for essay scoring, which is not filled by the candidate but by the examiner.
OMR / OCR / ICR Reading — Accept various sheet formats and detect markings, stray marks, cross-overs.
Template Designer & Test Definition — Flexible template creation, tagging (subject, difficulty, topic).
Merge Multi-sheet Data — Seamlessly combine multiple pages of a test into one result.
Scoring Rules & Key Management — Upload answer keys; support weighted scoring, negative marking, partial credit.
Onscreen Grading Module — Interface for manual grading of essay / subjective items with reviewer workflows.
Analytics & Reporting — Generate per‑student and cohort reports: section breakdowns, item analysis, difficulty index, trends over time.
Result Export / API & Integration — Export in Excel, CSV, JSON; API for integration with LMS / SIS.
Security & Audit — Role-based access control, detailed logs, encrypted storage, backup & versioning.
Scalability — Handles high volume exam programs, multiple test centers, multi‑user deployments.
Faster Turnaround — From scanning to result publication in minimal time.
Reduced Manual Errors — Automated reading, validation, and merging lower human error.
Transparent & Audit‑Ready Process — Full trace logs and grading transparency.
Deep Insights — Better visibility into student performance patterns, question weaknesses.
Seamless Integration — Compatible with existing systems and workflows.
Cost & Operational Efficiency — Less manual effort, centralized process, lower overhead.
This solution is ideal for:
Standardized test agencies administering the ACT
School boards / districts running ACT-style exams
Educational institutions & assessment bodies
Test prep centers needing automated scoring
Certification agencies requiring large-scale scoring

Q: Can the system scale for tens of thousands of sheets?
A: Yes — it’s designed for high volume scanning and parallel processing with error handling and validations.
Q: Does it support essay grading?
A: Absolutely. Essay or open‑ended responses are routed to graders via onscreen interface, with support for double or blind marking and adjudication.
Q: How are multiple sheets merged?
A: You define a master test template; responses from objective and essay sheets merge under one candidate record for final scoring.
Q: Can I integrate the results into my LMS or SIS?
A: Yes — export in standard formats (CSV, Excel, JSON) or push via API to external systems.
Q: How is data security ensured?
A: Role-based access, full audit trails, encryption, backup, and version control ensure data integrity and security.
