Where MegaExams stands ahead

A free library of ready-made papers

MegaExams comes with a free library of ready-made papers and practice questions, plus import from Word, Excel, or CSV. On ClassMarker you build your question bank yourself. For teachers running regular exams, this saves significant preparation time.

Free forever vs paid plans

ClassMarker has a limited free plan and paid plans, which can add up for schools and institutes running frequent exams with many students. MegaExams is free - no limits on exams, questions, students, or teachers.

Why it’s free

Free course and test-series bundling

Bundle your mocks into a structured course and share one link - students join from any phone browser, no app needed, and work through the whole series. On MegaExams the entire feature is free.

Automatic ranks and shareable scorecards

MegaExams generates automatic ranks and leaderboards, plus scorecards students can share as a link or PDF after every exam. This gives students a clear benchmark and helps schools and institutes show results.

AI question generation and help with written answers

MegaExams uses AI to generate new questions from a topic, and to suggest marks for written answers (including photo uploads) that the teacher reviews and approves. This takes much of the manual work out of subjective grading.

When ClassMarker might be a better fit

  • You need business compliance testing with detailed audit trails and integrations.
  • You want a long-established vendor with a mature API and integration ecosystem.
  • You are a business or training team rather than a school, and prefer a platform designed around corporate assessments.
