FAQ

Questions about UPSC evaluation

How does Dharoha evaluate UPSC GS answers?
Dharoha uses a custom AI system trained on UPSC marking patterns and thousands of topper answers. It applies the same criteria a senior examiner uses — named Acts, Articles, committees, schemes, court cases, and structured argument — giving you paragraph-level feedback with a score out of 125.
Is the scoring consistent?
Yes. Dharoha uses deterministic scoring (temperature 0, fixed seed) so the same answer always gets the same score. This makes it reliable for tracking your improvement over time.
How is GS4 Ethics evaluated differently?
For GS4 Theory, Dharoha checks for named ethical thinkers (Kant, Gandhi, Aristotle, Nolan), frameworks (consequentialism, deontology, virtue ethics), and public administration application. For Case Studies, it checks stakeholder analysis, implementation steps, and ARC recommendations — the most commonly missing elements in student answers.
Which Optional papers are supported?
Sociology, History, Geography, Political Science & IR, Public Administration, Anthropology, Law, Philosophy, Economics, and Hindi Literature. Each paper is evaluated with subject-specific expertise, standard references, and technical terminology.
Can I evaluate handwritten answers?
Yes. Upload a photo (JPG/PNG) or PDF of your handwritten answer. Dharoha reads the handwriting and evaluates it with the same depth as a typed answer. Multiple pages/files are supported.
How many evaluations can I do per day?
1 free evaluation every day for all registered users. You can buy packs of 50, 100, or 150 additional credits. Top-ups of 5, 10, or 25 credits are also available.
