SSC CHSL Tier-II Typing Test
35 WPM target · 10 min
The SSC CHSL (Combined Higher Secondary Level) typing test is a qualifying skill test conducted by the Staff Selection Commission as part of recruitment for Lower Division Clerk, Junior Secretariat Assistant, Postal Assistant, and Sorting Assistant posts. Candidates type a given passage on a computer keyboard within a strict 10-minute window. The minimum requirement is 35 WPM in English (10,500 key depressions per hour) or 30 WPM in Hindi (9,000 KDPH). The test is qualifying in nature, but failing it disqualifies you from final selection regardless of how well you did in Tier-I or Tier-II. The practice page below gives you free, exam-aligned typing practice in English and Hindi without an account - same 10-minute format, same passage style, same thresholds.
RRB NTPC Typing Skill Test
30 WPM target · 10 min
The Railway Recruitment Board (RRB) NTPC typing skill test is a qualifying skill stage for typist-cum-clerk posts such as Junior Clerk-cum-Typist, Accounts Clerk-cum-Typist, Senior Clerk-cum-Typist, and Junior Account Assistant. Candidates type a given passage in English or Hindi on a computer keyboard for a 10-minute window. The minimum requirement is 30 WPM in English (9,000 KDPH) or 25 WPM in Hindi (7,500 KDPH) - slightly lower thresholds than SSC CHSL. The test is qualifying in nature, but failing it removes you from the candidate pool entirely for that recruitment cycle. This page is free, exam-style 10-minute practice in both languages with real RRB-style passages drawn from railway administration prose.
Computer Proficiency Certification Test (CPCT) - Madhya Pradesh
30 WPM target · 15 min
The Computer Proficiency Certification Test (CPCT), conducted by the Madhya Pradesh Agency for Promotion of Information Technology (MAP_IT), is a state-level certification required for clerical hiring across most Madhya Pradesh government departments and public-sector undertakings. The test has two main components: a multiple-choice computer-knowledge section, and a typing-skill section that includes both English and Hindi typing modules. The typing threshold is typically 30 WPM in English and 20 WPM in Hindi, with strong accuracy expectations. The CPCT certificate, once earned, is valid for seven years and is accepted by virtually every MP government department for clerical and computer-operator post recruitment. This page is your free, exam-aligned practice surface in both languages.
State Government Clerical Typing Tests (India)
30 WPM target · 10 min
Most Indian state governments conduct their own clerical typing tests as a qualifying stage in recruitment for posts like Lower Division Clerk, Steno-Typist, Junior Assistant, and equivalent. Thresholds vary by state and department - typically 25-35 WPM in English and 20-30 WPM in the state's official language. This page is a general practice guide that works across most state typing exams. For the exact format and threshold for your state, check the recruitment notification on the relevant state PSC or recruitment board website.
Krutidev / Mangal Font Hindi Typing Test (Government & Legacy)
30 WPM target · 10 min
Hindi typing tests in India fall into two font conventions. Mangal is the modern Unicode standard used by SSC, RRB, UPSC, CPCT, and most central government typing exams since 2017 - it runs on the InScript keyboard layout. Krutidev is the legacy Remington-style font still mandated by several state government recruitments, a handful of public-sector banks, court stenography roles, and many private-sector typing assessments. Practicing on the wrong font costs candidates weeks of misplaced muscle memory. This page is a free, exam-style 10-minute Hindi typing practice that covers both font conventions, with the corpus drawn from real government, administrative, and educational prose - the same kind of passage style you'll see on exam day.
UPSSSC (Uttar Pradesh Subordinate Services Selection Commission) Typing Test
30 WPM target · 10 min
The UPSSSC (Uttar Pradesh Subordinate Services Selection Commission) conducts typing tests as a qualifying skill stage for clerical, stenographer, and computer-operator recruitments across the Uttar Pradesh state government. Speed requirements vary by post - typically 25-30 WPM in Hindi for Lower Division Clerk and Junior Assistant positions, and 30-35 WPM in English for stenographer and computer-operator roles. The format is computer-based, ten minutes locked, with the candidate typing a given passage in either Hindi (using Mangal font on InScript layout, or in some legacy posts still Krutidev) or English. This page is a free, exam-style practice surface with passages drawn from UP government administrative writing.
IBPS Clerk Typing Test (Computer Proficiency Test)
30 WPM target · 10 min
The IBPS Clerk recruitment includes a typing-style computer proficiency check after the main and preliminary exam stages, conducted for candidates who clear the written tests. The formal IBPS Clerk exam does not test typing speed during its preliminary or main stages, but several participating public-sector banks include in-house typing assessments during the joining or training phase, typically expecting 25-30 WPM in English with 95%+ accuracy. For Hindi-region branch postings the assessment may also include a Hindi typing component. This page is a free practice surface for bank clerical typing prep, with passages drawn from real banking, financial, and administrative prose - the same writing style that bank clerks handle daily.
LDC (Lower Division Clerk) Typing Test - Central & State Government
35 WPM target · 10 min
The LDC (Lower Division Clerk) typing test is a qualifying skill stage in clerical recruitment across central government departments, state government PSCs, several public-sector banks, courts, and many statutory bodies in India. The exact format and threshold vary by the recruiting body. SSC CHSL LDC, the highest-volume version, requires 35 WPM English or 30 WPM Hindi over a 10-minute window. Various state PSCs use thresholds in the 25-30 WPM range, sometimes in the state's official language alongside or instead of English. This page is a free practice surface for LDC typing prep, covering both English and Hindi formats with passages drawn from the kind of administrative prose that LDC-level work actually involves.
Government Technical Examination in Typewriting (Tamil) - Tamil Nadu
30 WPM target · 10 min
Most pages about "TNPSC typing test" describe a typing test the commission runs during selection, with a words-per-minute threshold you clear on the day. For the clerical posts, that is not how it works. The TNPSC notification for Junior Assistant lists typewriting as a technical qualification you must already hold: a pass in the Government Technical Examination in Typewriting, in a specified combination of grades in Tamil and English. You obtain it beforehand, from the Directorate of Technical Education, and you upload the certificate with your application. This page explains that requirement, what the grades mean in practice, and how to practise for the speed paper - and it is explicit about which figures come from the notification and which come from the examining board.
Government Technical Examination in Typewriting (Telugu) - Andhra Pradesh and Telangana
30 WPM target · 10 min
Pages about "APPSC typing test" and "TSPSC typing test" generally describe a typing test the commission runs during selection, with a words-per-minute threshold you clear on the day. For the clerical posts that is not usually how it works. The notifications list typewriting as a technical qualification you are expected to already hold - a pass in the Government Technical Examination in Typewriting, at a specified grade - obtained beforehand from the state board and uploaded with your application. This page sets out that requirement, what the grades mean, and how to practise for the speed paper, and it is explicit about which parts we could confirm and which we could not.
Oposiciones (Spain) - typing and transcription exercises
50 WPM target · 10 min
Most of the Spanish typing-practice industry sells preparation for a typing test that the two largest national competitions no longer set. The 2025 convocatoria for the Cuerpo General Auxiliar del Estado is one exercise of multiple-choice questions, and the 2025 Justicia convocatoria replaced transcription with twenty questions about Windows and Office. Typing exercises have not disappeared; they have moved to the Cortes Generales and to autonomous and local competitions, each of which publishes its own bases. This guide sets out which is which, on the evidence of the notifications themselves, and explains the arithmetic those exercises are scored by, which is not the arithmetic most practice sites report.
Cortes Generales, Cuerpo Administrativo - second exercise
50 WPM target · 10 min
This is the clearest surviving national typing exercise in the Spanish public sector, and the notification describes it precisely enough to practise against. The second exercise is eliminatory: ten minutes of transcription at a minimum of 250 net keystrokes a minute, followed by a second part in which the transcribed text is worked in Word and Excel. What makes it worth reading closely is not the speed but the penalty. Each wrong keystroke removes six from the total, and a separate ceiling excludes anyone more than two per cent wrong however fast they typed.
Prova pratica de digitacao - Brazilian concursos publicos
33 WPM target · 11 min
Almost everything written about preparing for this exercise is aimed at the wrong target. The published FGV format is a printed passage of about 1,800 characters typed in eleven minutes, marked out of ten, with 0.05 of a point deducted for every divergent character - one more, one fewer, or one different. Speed is not scored. The eleven minutes imply a pace of roughly 33 words per minute, which most office typists already have, so the exercise is decided almost entirely on accuracy. A candidate typing 60 words per minute at 97 per cent accuracy scores worse than one typing 35 at 99.5, and no amount of extra speed closes that gap.
Concours d'adjoint administratif - epreuve pratique de bureautique
40 WPM target · 15 min
There is a preparation market in France built around typing speed for this concours, and the epreuve definitions do not support it. The practical test is fifteen minutes, coefficient 1, and its published purpose is to check the candidate's aptitude in word processing, spreadsheets and information technology. No words-per-minute figure appears in it, or in the framework notes, or anywhere else we could find. Meanwhile the written paper and the numerical table carry coefficient 3 each and the interview another 3, so the office test is worth roughly a ninth of the marks. Typing fluency helps here the way it helps anywhere, by not being in the way. It is not what is being scored.
