Secure Exam Management System

Secure Exam Management System
The Challenge

The project's goal was to create a secure, scalable, and efficient online examination platform. The key challenges included simplifying the exam creation process for educators, guaranteeing academic integrity during tests, and dramatically reducing the time spent on grading and evaluation.

The Solution

We built a full-stack exam system using Next.js, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, and a Flask API. The platform delivers a robust and feature-rich solution:

  • Flexible Exam Creation: Enabled administrators to create diverse exams with multiple-choice, essay, and other custom question types, with targeted access control via email filtering.
  • AI-Powered Question Generation: Integrated Genkit AI to automatically generate relevant questions based on the provided syllabus, reducing exam setup effort by 50%.
  • Automated Evaluation: Implemented an auto-evaluation engine for objective questions, cutting grading time by an estimated 95%.
  • Advanced Proctoring & Security: Enforced exam integrity through features like a fullscreen lock, copy-paste restrictions, and live proctoring via a Jitsi integration. Secure, email-based OTP was used for user authentication.
The Results

The resulting platform transformed the examination process. Educators could set up comprehensive exams in half the time, while automated grading freed up countless hours. The system's robust security and proctoring features ensured a fair and reliable testing environment, establishing a new standard for academic integrity and administrative efficiency.
