Fifteen minutes at 35 WPM English or 30 WPM Hindi. Check your own court notice before treating it as a mock." dateModified: 2026-09-07 --- [Home](https://sarkariexamtyping.com/) · [Court typing tests](https://sarkariexamtyping.com/court-typing-test.html) · District Court Typing Test Practice General practice settings # District Court Typing Test Practice This district court typing test offers 15-minute practice at 35 WPM in English on QWERTY or 30 WPM in Hindi on Mangal InScript, Mangal Remington or Kruti Dev 010. Backspace works within the current word, and full and half mistakes reduce net speed. Your result screen lists gross and net WPM, accuracy, and full and half mistakes, with the score worked out using the selected exam profile's formula. For a different timer, use Practice mode, which has its own editing and scoring settings. Reviewed by [the Sarkari Exam Typing team](https://sarkariexamtyping.com/about.html) [Start typing practice →](https://sarkariexamtyping.com/app.html?exam=district_court_typist&lang=en_qwerty) Free practice includes five passages per language, every exam pattern, all English lessons and unlimited repeats, with no account or expiry. ## Test settings | Test settings | Value | | --- | --- | | Time | 15 minutes | | English target | 35 WPM | | Hindi target | 30 WPM — Mangal Inscript, Mangal Remington, Kruti Dev 010 | | Scoring | Net WPM after full and half mistakes | | Error limit | No separate error limit here. | | Editing | Current word only; not verified as an official restriction. | [Source notes](https://sarkariexamtyping.com/exams/sources/district-court-typing-test.html) ## How the score works A full mistake counts as one and a half mistake counts as half. Those are taken off before your speed is worked out. Missed and repeated words are counted in groups. After the test you can see which mistakes counted and what each one took off. The score cannot fall below zero. ## Typing tips Keep typing when you slip. Correction keys behave the way the table above describes, so stopping to fight one word costs you more than the word is worth. Check the result screen afterwards to see what actually went wrong. - Check the language, script and keyboard arrangement named by your court. Do not assume this page matches them. - If your court uses another timer or editing rule, use these passages for raw practice. Score yourself against the real numbers separately. ## How to practise for a district court typing test Start with the recruiting district and the exact post, then search your saved documents for both. Keep any later skill-test instruction with the original advertisement, since the later document often explains controls the vacancy notice never mentions. If the recruitment has two language sections, keep two practice records. If it is for a copyist, read whether the source text is shown on screen or supplied some other way. Do not infer the task from a neighbouring district's video or from a clerk test with a similar title. While you wait for instructions, pick a modest copying exercise: "Case 014/2026: N. Rao filed a copy on 08/09/2026." Compare it character by character afterwards. That is useful keyboard work with no unsupported court cutoff attached to it. Once you know the format, change the timer and controls to match. The general district-court preset here uses a fifteen-minute passage, 35 WPM English or 30 WPM Hindi, and current-word correction. We have not verified that combination for any particular court, so it is offered for general passage practice. If your court has its own profile in the directory, read its source notes and compare the timer, language and mistake calculation with your instructions before treating a result as preparation evidence. For Hindi key combinations and matras, see the [Hindi typing guide](https://sarkariexamtyping.com/hindi-typing-practice-guide.html). The [scoring guide](https://sarkariexamtyping.com/typing-test-scoring.html) explains the speed and error figures shown in your practice result. ## Keyboard layouts English practice uses QWERTY. For Hindi you can pick Mangal Inscript. Check the layout named in your own exam notice before learning the keys. ## Related typing tests [Allahabad High Court (RO / ARO / CA)](https://sarkariexamtyping.com/exams/allahabad-high-court-typing-test.html) · [Delhi High Court (JJA / Restorer)](https://sarkariexamtyping.com/exams/delhi-high-court-typing-test.html) · [Bihar Civil Court (Reader / Deposition Writer)](https://sarkariexamtyping.com/exams/bihar-civil-court-typing-test.html) ## Common questions **Does this reproduce my official exam?** Almost certainly not exactly. District courts vary by state and even by bench. This page uses one working timer instead of guessing at hundreds of local notices. If your court has its own profile here, use that instead. Otherwise, check your recruitment's actual instructions before relying on this result. Practice tool, not an official result — always check the current notification.
