Page reviewed: 2026-08-30. Practice rule status: draft. Allahabad High Court Junior Assistant (Category 'C', clerical cadre) typing test: 10 minutes per language, roughly 300-word English / 250-word Hindi passage, 30 WPM English / 25 WPM Hindi net speed, Mangal InScript for Hindi. Scored out of 25 marks per language; candidates need at least 10/25 in each. This is a distinct post from the Allahabad High Court RO/ARO/Computer Assistant profile already on this site (English-only, 20-minute, 50-mark format) — do not confuse the two. The per-mistake deduction rate used here is an unsourced approximation, not an official figure. Compiled from typing-coaching sources and practice-tool listings for this exact post, not a primary Allahabad HC notification — re-check the live notice before relying on any number here.

How your score is calculated

Every detected word, spelling, spacing, capitalisation or punctuation mismatch counts as one whole mistake. Each language is scored out of 25 marks, with an estimated 0.5 marks deducted per mistake (this deduction rate is an approximation, not a sourced official figure) — you need at least 10 of the 25 marks in each language to qualify. Your result screen shows each detected mistake and the practice formula applied to your attempt. This result is not an official exam result.

Worked example: Each language is scored out of 25 marks with an estimated 0.5 marks deducted per mistake. Ten mistakes cost 10 × 0.5 = 5 marks, leaving 20/25 — comfortably past the 10-mark qualifying floor. Thirty mistakes cost 15 marks, leaving exactly 10/25 — the bare minimum. Anything beyond that fails, regardless of how many words you typed, since this is a marks-based cap rather than a speed-based one.

Tips for the Allahabad High Court (Junior Assistant) typing test

Don't confuse this page with the site's existing Allahabad High Court RO/ARO test — the two posts have genuinely different formats.

  • This is not the RO/ARO test. Allahabad High Court's Review Officer/Assistant Review Officer post is English-only, 20 minutes, 50 marks — Junior Assistant is bilingual, 10 minutes per language, 25 marks each. Make sure you're preparing for the right post.
  • Both languages have the same 10/25 qualifying floor. Don't lean on one language and neglect the other — you must clear both independently.
  • The per-mistake deduction rate here is an estimate. Focus on minimising mistakes generally rather than calculating an exact score during practice.
  • Practise the shorter ~300/250-word passages at a controlled pace. The shorter length means each individual mistake has more relative weight than on a longer passage.
