# How do I use Grade Appeal to check a marked test?

> Open the AI chat menu, tap Grade Appeal and photograph every page of a test your teacher has already marked. Knowie looks for marks you may have missed and suggests what to say to your teacher.

Grade Appeal checks a test your teacher has already marked. Knowie looks for points that may have been missed and shows you what to say when you ask your teacher about them.

## Check a test

1. Open the AI chat and open the menu.
2. Tap **Grade Appeal**.
3. Tap **Scan your test**.
4. Photograph every page, with the teacher's marks visible. You can also choose photos from your gallery. You can add up to 12 pages.
5. Wait while Knowie checks the test. This takes about a minute.

## Your result

- If Knowie finds points, you see how many and, for each question, a **Say this** box with a suggestion for your teacher. If the paper shows a grade scale, you also see the grade you could end up with.
- **Your marking looks fair** means Knowie found no points to claim back.
- **I can't see any marking** means the photos show no teacher's marks. Scan a test that has already been marked.
- **I couldn't read every page** means some photos were unclear. Try again in good light, with your phone straight above each page.

Knowie's result is a suggestion, not a new grade. Your teacher decides whether to change the mark.

## Your checked tests

After your first check, **Grade Appeal** opens a list of your checked tests. Tap a test to see the result again, or tap **Check a new test**.

## Good to know

- Grade Appeal is in the app only, not on the website.
- It is available to everyone in the US. In other countries some students see it as part of a test. If you do not see **Grade Appeal** in the menu, your account does not have it yet. You cannot opt in, and support cannot switch it on.
- If you see **You've hit your hourly limit**, wait a while and try again.
- If you see **That didn't work**, your photos are kept. Tap **Try again**.
