What you get, every time

Follows CIMA's published marking approach.

Marked following CIMA's published marking approach: each part of your answer placed at Level 1, 2 or 3 on technical understanding, communication, use of the information and application to the scenario, with feedback by core activity. On the same 0–150 scale, with the pass line at 80.

To reach 100: say what the move means for the warehouse team before you recommend it.

Sample: an invented task and answer, not a real student's.

We follow CIMA's published 2026–27 marking approach. Each requirement is split into the points a marker rewards, and each point is placed at Level 1, 2 or 3 by best fit, then given a mark inside that level's range. A level is judged on technical understanding, communication, use of the information and application to the scenario. Marks are given for what you show, never taken away. You see the level and marks for each point, a score for each of the four elements, and your result by core activity, as a practice estimate out of 150 with the pass line at 80. Every answer is first marked automatically by AI against this scheme. You can query any mark: an independent second marking looks at it first, then a CIMA-qualified (CGMA) moderator if it doesn't settle. Our marks follow CIMA's published 2026–27 marking approach. They are a practice estimate to help you improve, not an official CIMA mark or a prediction of your result.

How marking works and how we check it
  1. Write

    A timed task set in your pre-seen, on an exam-style screen with a calculator and word count, plus a workings sheet of our own (CIMA's screen has a scratch pad, not a spreadsheet).

  2. Get marked

    Marked following CIMA's published marking approach: each part of your answer placed at Level 1, 2 or 3 on technical understanding, communication, use of the information and application to the scenario, with feedback by core activity. Against the pass line of 80, in the context of your pre-seen company.

  3. See it rewritten

    Your own answer rewritten to the next level up: to the pass line, or past it. With the reason for each change. Then write it again.

  4. Go again

    Your plan picks the task that should help most next, and tracks your readiness against the pass line.
