UPSSSC Typing Test — Free Practice for UP Government Posts
The UPSSSC (Uttar Pradesh Subordinate Services Selection Commission) conducts typing tests for various clerical and stenographer posts in the Uttar Pradesh state government. Typing speed requirements vary by post — typically 25-30 WPM in Hindi for clerk posts and 30-35 WPM in English for stenographer or computer-operator roles. The format is computer-based, 10 minutes, with passages in Hindi (Krutidev or Mangal depending on the recruitment) or English. This page is your free, exam-style practice surface for UPSSSC typing prep.

Which UPSSSC posts include a typing test
Lower Division Clerk (LDC), Junior Assistant (JA), Stenographer, Computer Operator, Office Assistant, Sahayak Lekhakar, and Tax Inspector posts all typically include a typing test as a qualifying stage. Some specialized posts (technical, supervisory) skip the typing requirement. Always confirm with the specific notification for the post and recruitment cycle you're applying for. UPSSSC publishes detailed exam patterns on its official website (upsssc.gov.in) for every active recruitment.
Krutidev or Mangal — which does UPSSSC use?
It depends on the specific recruitment and post. Older UPSSSC notifications (pre-2018) typically required Krutidev for Hindi typing. Newer notifications have been split — some have moved to Mangal/InScript, while others still mandate Krutidev for compatibility with existing UP government file systems. The 2024-25 cycle saw most clerical posts standardize on Mangal, but several stenographer posts still required Krutidev. Read your call letter and notification carefully; if it doesn't specify, contact UPSSSC for clarification before you commit weeks of practice to the wrong layout.
How to use Typetera for UPSSSC practice
Hit 'Start practice test' below for a 10-minute Hindi typing test in Mangal/InScript convention. The corpus matches government administration writing style with the formal phrasing UP recruitments favor. For Krutidev-specific practice, switch your system's IME to Krutidev mode and use Custom mode at /hi/test to paste past-year UPSSSC passages. For English typing prep (Stenographer, Computer Operator posts), use /test with 10-minute duration and all toggles enabled. Aim for 35 WPM at 95%+ accuracy in practice — that gives you a buffer for exam-day pressure.
What to verify before exam day
Check your call letter and the official notification for: (1) the exact WPM threshold for your post and language, (2) whether the test uses Krutidev or Mangal for Hindi, (3) the duration of the typing window (usually 10 minutes but verify), (4) what counts as a passing accuracy (95% is standard), (5) whether re-attempts are allowed in case of technical issues. Reach the exam center at least 60 minutes early to account for document verification and seating allocation.
Common mistakes UPSSSC candidates make
Practicing only English typing when your post requires Hindi (read the notification). Practicing only Mangal when your specific recruitment still uses Krutidev. Practicing on random word drills instead of real Hindi prose passages (UP recruitment passages are sentence-heavy with formal vocabulary). Ignoring the 95% accuracy threshold and chasing raw WPM (your effective speed drops below threshold with high error rates). Showing up to the exam center without practicing on a physical keyboard for at least two weeks (touch keyboards don't transfer).
