Academic Performance Overview

Most AI tools check writing. AcademicCheck checks whether you answered the assignment.

This is a sample report layout — not a live analysis of a real paper, and not a promise of any score. See how the diagnosis starts from the brief, then ranks what to fix first.

Assignment question

To what extent has mobile money improved financial inclusion for rural households in Ghana since 2015? Critically evaluate competing explanations and support your argument with evidence.

Partially answers the brief

The draft covers mobile money and rural access, but stays descriptive. It does not take a clear position on “to what extent,” and competing explanations are named more than weighed against evidence.

72

72 Overall Score

Almost Ready

The draft addresses the question but the thesis is still descriptive. Evidence is present; several claims need closer source integration. Citations are mostly consistent with APA 7 with a few formatting gaps.

Top 3 Critical Fixes

What matters most — fix these first.

  1. Sharpen the thesis into a contestable claim

    The opening states a topic rather than an arguable position that answers the command word.

    Fix this first.
