Frequently asked questions

ATAR99 is an AI-powered exam-practice platform for Australian senior students chasing a top ATAR. You sit real past-style exam papers, get auto-graded MCQ instantly, and — on written questions — get your answers marked mark-by-mark like a VCAA examiner would.

We're starting with VCE (Victoria) — General, Methods and Specialist Maths plus science subjects — and expanding across Australia over time. See the live list on the sign-up page once you're in.

Our question bank is curated and in-syllabus — past-exam-style papers with full worked solutions, kept within the current study design. We deliberately don't flood you with shaky auto-generated questions; the value is trustworthy practice.

For short-answer and extended-response questions, ATAR99 marks your written work method-mark by method-mark against a fixed assessment scheme — the way VCAA allocates marks. It quotes your own working as evidence for every mark awarded, and gives examiner-report-style feedback on each mark you dropped: what the assessor expected, the common error, and how to secure it next time.

A generic chatbot will confidently guess a grade. ATAR99 marks against a rubric anchored to the VCAA scheme and refuses to award a mark it can't point to in your working — so the score reflects how the real exam is marked, not how chatty the AI is. That grounded, subject-specific marking is the whole point.

AI marking of written answers is part of the paid plans. See pricing for exactly what each tier unlocks.
