SharpkopAbout Sharpkop
Sharpkop is a website and app for South African learners in Grade 11 and Grade 12, and anyone rewriting matric. You answer a question based on a past National Senior Certificate paper and see it marked mark by mark, with the reason for every mark you lose. It is free to try, with no sign-up for your first answers.
How marking works
Each question has a marking guide based on the Department of Basic Education memo: the points an examiner gives marks for. An AI model reads your answer against that guide and gives each mark point a tick or a cross, with the reason for every cross. If it is not sure it can mark an answer fairly, it says so instead of guessing.
Where the questions come from
Questions are based on National Senior Certificate papers set by the Department of Basic Education. Sharpkop is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Department.
Every question is based on a past paper and written out again in our own words. Where we changed the wording or the numbers, its source line says “Based on”, so you always know which paper it came from. The original papers and memos are on PapersZA.
Who runs it
