HKDSE Chinese Language exam grading is automated by applying rubric-based scoring and level assignment. The workflow extracts rubrics from PDFs, allocates per-question marks for ten students, and generates per-student JSON outputs with compiled scores and levels.

Rubric extraction and level division work by isolating scoring criteria from PDFs and assigning levels from 1 to 5 based on compiled per-question marks. This modular workflow standardizes HKDSE Chinese grading across multiple student responses.

When reference data is lacking, the Chinese exam grading workflow skips the calibration phase and proceeds directly to rubric extraction and per-student scoring, ensuring the grading process continues without requiring external reference materials.

The HKDSE Chinese grading workflow outputs structured per-student JSON results containing final scores and assigned levels. These structured outputs enable downstream analysis of score distributions across the graded cohort of ten students.

The limitation when grading without reference data is that the calibration phase is skipped entirely, meaning rubric extraction and per-question scoring proceed without baseline comparisons for the 2025 HKDSE Chinese assessment cohort.
