Auto-evaluation

You can also enable auto-evaluation in the subjective questions which will auto-evaluate the submission of the candidate to the actual answer. It will compare the base answer which is provided by you to the candidate's submission. You need to toggle the Auto-evaluation button on to enable this feature. For example,

You also have an option to view the difference between the actual answer and the candidate's submission. For example, comparing the two answers after enabling View difference

You can also provide a solution template for candidates just like code stubs in the programming language.

Note: Turn this feature on only for text-based answers and not for numerical answers or the answers where the language is not English.
