Upload your first batch
15 February 2026
Steps
1. Sign in to CheckOMR
Open the app and sign in with your institute account.
2. Create a new batch
From the dashboard, click New Batch and name your exam session.
3. Upload the PDF
Drag and drop your scanned answer-sheet PDF or browse to select it.
4. Monitor and export
Watch live progress, then download CSV, Excel, or marked PDF results.
This tutorial walks through creating a batch, uploading a multi-page PDF, and monitoring processing status. It is the shortest path from a stack of scanned OMR sheets to your first result export.
Before you start
- Scanned OMR sheets saved as PDF (mobile scan app or ADF scanner — both work).
- Your CheckOMR (By Navodaya Study) account — sign in with your institute account. New here? Registration takes about a minute.
- An answer key. You can skip this on the first try, but scoring needs one — see Set up answer keys.
Steps
1. Sign in to CheckOMR
Open the app and sign in with your institute account. If you have not registered yet, create an account first — you only need your email or mobile number.
2. Create a new batch
From the dashboard, click New Batch and name your exam session. A clear name like "Class 10 Mock Test 05 – Set A/B" makes batch history easy to navigate later.
3. Upload the PDF
Drag and drop your scanned answer-sheet PDF or browse to select it. You can upload multiple PDFs together — for example, one PDF per exam room — and they are processed as one batch with live status tracking.
4. Monitor and export
Watch live progress: the dashboard shows processed count, failed count and average score while the batch runs. When it completes, download:
- Excel / CSV — the full result sheet for records and analysis.
- Marked PDF — every checked sheet with colour-coded right/wrong marks, ready to share with students.
Scanning tips before your next batch
- Scan on a flat surface with even light — no glare or shadow over the bubbles.
- Keep all four corners of the sheet inside the frame; alignment markers must stay visible.
- One sheet per page, and check the PDF once before uploading.
If any sheet fails, the live status shows it — re-scan that physical sheet and upload it in a new batch.
What's next
- Set up answer keys — attach keys per booklet code before scoring.
- Download and print blank OMR sheets — get templates for practice tests.
