IBPS Clerk Typing Test — Free Practice for Bank Clerk Posts

The IBPS Clerk recruitment process includes a typing-style computer proficiency check after the main and preliminary exam stages, conducted for candidates who clear the written tests. While IBPS itself doesn't run a formal typing-speed exam like SSC CHSL, several participating public-sector banks include in-house typing assessments during their joining or training stages, typically expecting 25-30 WPM in English with 95%+ accuracy. This page is your free practice surface for bank clerical typing prep, covering both English and Hindi formats.

Does IBPS test typing speed directly?

No — the formal IBPS Clerk preliminary and main exams test reasoning, quantitative aptitude, English language, and general awareness. They do not include a typing speed component. The typing assessment, when it happens, takes place at the joining or training stage conducted by the individual participating bank you've been allotted to. So if you're preparing for IBPS Clerk and are anxious about typing, the right framing is: clear the IBPS stages first, focus on the typing practice in the weeks between your allocation and joining date.

Which participating banks have typing assessments?

Practice varies by bank. State Bank of India (SBI, separate exam from IBPS) has its own typing test for some clerical posts. Among IBPS participating banks: Punjab National Bank, Bank of Baroda, Canara Bank, Union Bank of India, Indian Overseas Bank, Central Bank of India, and others have at various times included in-house typing assessments. The pattern shifts over time as banks update their HR processes. The realistic prep approach is to aim for 30 WPM English at 95%+ accuracy in your daily practice — that exceeds the threshold of every participating bank we've seen.

How to use Typetera for IBPS Clerk typing prep

Hit 'Start practice test' below for a 10-minute English typing test with banking and administrative-style passages. The corpus matches the formal, document-heavy writing style that bank work involves. For Hindi typing practice (relevant for branches in Hindi-speaking states), use /hi/test or our SSC CHSL Hindi exam-mode at /hi/exams/ssc-chsl-typing-test for similar format practice. Target 35 WPM at 95%+ accuracy in practice — that gives you a buffer for the typically-25-30 WPM bank assessments and accounts for exam-day pressure.

Beyond typing — what else matters at joining

Bank joining and training stages typically also assess: basic familiarity with banking software (most banks use Finacle or BaNCS for core banking; you don't need to know these in detail before joining, but knowing what they are helps), familiarity with MS Excel for reporting tasks, comfort with email and document handling, and basic data-entry accuracy. Typing speed is one piece of the puzzle. If you're already 30+ WPM with 95%+ accuracy, you've handled the most measurable part. The rest is on-the-job learning during training.

Common mistakes bank-clerk candidates make

Focusing only on the IBPS exam and not building typing speed in parallel — by the time you're allocated, you may have only a few weeks before training starts, and typing speed takes 4-6 weeks of consistent practice to build. Practicing on random word drills instead of banking-style prose. Ignoring numbers — banking work is number-heavy, and most typing tests undertrained on number sequences. Toggle 'numbers' on in our Options bar for realistic practice. Treating Hindi typing as optional when your allocated branch is in a Hindi-speaking state — most North Indian branches expect Hindi typing competence.
