Editing tools are disabled in this practice profile. Reference material: RRB Chandigarh (official site) — the 2024 CBTST instructions PDF this profile was originally sourced from is no longer published; check the current recruitment notices for your cycle. |
| SSC CHSL (LDC / JSA) | 35 WPM | Hindi Mangal Inscript: 30 WPM Hindi Mangal Remington: 30 WPM Hindi Kruti Dev 010: 30 WPM | 10 minutes per practice attempt | Partly checked Duration and speed targets checked 7 September 2026 against the SSC CHSL 2025 notice, section 13.8.13.7, pages 19-20. This check does not verify the app's error limits, editing restrictions or layout choices. Check your recruitment cycle's instructions for those details. |
| SSC CGL (DEST / Data Entry Skill Test) | 8000 KDPH | Not offered | 15 minutes per practice attempt | Duration and scope checked The SSC CGL 2026 notice, section 13.9.10, pages 29-30, checked 8 September 2026, specifies about 2,000 key depressions in fifteen minutes and DEST for all posts, subject to stated exemptions. It also describes higher standards for some posts and extra time for eligible candidates. This check does not verify this app's correction restrictions or category error limits. The 2025 final-result write-up is historical cutoff material, not a 2026 cutoff notice. |
| SSC Stenographer (Grade C / Grade D) | 40 WPM | Hindi Mangal Inscript: 35 WPM Hindi Mangal Remington: 35 WPM Hindi Kruti Dev 010: 35 WPM | 10 minutes per practice attempt | Official timing checked; practice limits remain Dictation and transcription times checked 8 September 2026 against the SSC Stenographer 2026 notice, section 15.1, page 20. Dictation lasts ten minutes at 100 WPM for Grade C or 80 WPM for Grade D. Ordinary transcription time is 40/55 minutes for Grade C English/Hindi and 50/65 for Grade D. Eligible candidates have separate accommodations. This check does not verify the app's correction restrictions or 5%/7% error caps. |
| MP CPCT (Computer Proficiency / Typing) | 30 WPM | Hindi Mangal Inscript: 20 WPM Hindi Mangal Remington: 20 WPM Hindi Kruti Dev 010: 20 WPM | 15 minutes per practice attempt | Earlier source check 15 minutes per section. Wrong words are not counted (no deduction); net speed = correct words per minute. English 30 NWPM / Hindi 20 NWPM. Backspace allowed. Check the current official notification before relying on any requirement. |
| UPSSSC (Junior Assistant / Clerk) | 30 WPM | Hindi Mangal Inscript: 25 WPM Hindi Kruti Dev 010: 25 WPM | 5 minutes per practice attempt | Unconfirmed settings The draft preset uses five minutes, 30/25 WPM, a five-error-unit allowance and a five-word deduction per further unit. Current-and-previous-word correction comes from a secondary practice convention. Confirm the duration, layout and full scoring method against the active UPSSSC instructions. |
| UP Police (Computer Operator) | 30 WPM | Hindi Mangal Inscript: 25 WPM | 15 minutes per practice attempt | Unconfirmed settings UPPRPB Computer Operator Grade A typing test: separate 15-minute English and Hindi sections, both qualifying only (not added to merit). English requires 30 WPM on a ~500-word passage at 85% accuracy. Hindi requires 25 WPM on Mangal Unicode InScript; an accuracy threshold is commonly reported alongside the English rule but was not independently confirmed for Hindi in the sources reviewed, so this practice profile applies the same 85% standard to both sections pending verification against the current UPPRPB notice. Check the current official notification before relying on any requirement. |
| Allahabad High Court (RO / ARO / CA) | 25 WPM | Not offered | 20 minutes per practice attempt | Unconfirmed settings This draft preset uses a twenty-minute English passage, a 50-mark starting score and a 0.1-mark deduction per counted mistake. Its practice threshold is 25 marks. These settings have not been established as a complete current official format for every post named on this page. |
| Delhi High Court (JJA / Restorer) | 35 WPM | Not offered | 10 minutes per practice attempt | Official timing and speed checked Checked 14 September 2026 against the Delhi High Court JJA / Restorer 2026 vacancy notice, page 6: a 10-minute English typing test on computer at a minimum of 35 words per minute, speed counted on characters with space, and mistakes allowed up to 3% of total words typed. The test is qualifying. The half-mistake categories used in this practice test come from an earlier check. |
| District Court (general practice) | 35 WPM | Hindi Mangal Inscript: 30 WPM Hindi Mangal Remington: 30 WPM Hindi Kruti Dev 010: 30 WPM | 15 minutes per practice attempt | Practice preset This general preset uses 15 minutes and practice targets of 35 WPM English or 30 WPM Hindi. These are site defaults, not verified requirements for a particular court recruitment. |
| Bihar Civil Court (Reader / Deposition Writer) | 40 WPM | Hindi Mangal Inscript: 30 WPM Hindi Mangal Remington: 30 WPM Hindi Kruti Dev 010: 30 WPM | 10 minutes per practice attempt | Unconfirmed settings The earlier review distinguished the Reader/Deposition Writer direct-recruitment profile from a separate promotion-test rule. This preset uses 40/30 WPM and correct-word scoring, with current-word correction. The complete current direct-recruitment method remains unconfirmed. |
| RSMSSB / RSSB (LDC / Clerk) | 9 marks | Hindi DevLys 010 (Remington): 9 marks | 10 minutes per practice attempt | Unconfirmed settings This draft speed preset uses ten minutes, 0.05 marks per correct English word and 0.0625 per correct Hindi word, capped at 25 with a 9-mark practice threshold.

| CRPF (Head Constable Ministerial) | 35 WPM | Hindi Mangal Remington: 30 WPM Hindi Mangal Inscript: 30 WPM Hindi Kruti Dev 010: 30 WPM | 10 minutes per practice attempt | Earlier source check CRPF HC(M) notice: 10-minute test, English 35 / Hindi 30 wpm. Every listed error counts as one whole mistake; 5% are allowed, then 10 words are deducted per additional mistake. Hindi uses Remington GAIL + Mangal. Check the current official notification before relying on any requirement. |
| Delhi Police Head Constable (Ministerial) | 30 WPM; minimum 400 evaluated words in this preset | Hindi Mangal Inscript: 25 WPM; minimum 350 evaluated words in this preset Hindi Mangal Remington: 25 WPM; minimum 350 evaluated words in this preset Hindi Kruti Dev 010: 25 WPM; minimum 350 evaluated words in this preset | 10 minutes per practice attempt | Earlier source check SSC's Delhi Police Head Constable (Ministerial) 2025 notice describes a 10-minute typing test: minimum 30 WPM English or 25 WPM Hindi, with a printed passage of at least 400 English words / 2000 strokes or 350 Hindi words / 1750 strokes. The notice deducts one word for each mistake and awards typing marks by speed bands. This browser profile uses whole-mistake counting and one-word-per-mistake practice net speed; it does not reproduce the official 25-mark bands or the separate computer-formatting test. Reference material: view source. |
| Supreme Court (Junior Court Assistant) | 35 WPM | Not offered | 10 minutes per practice attempt | Earlier source check 2025 JCA: 10-minute English test, 35 wpm, minimum 1750 keystrokes and 3% maximum mistakes.

| MP High Court (Junior Judicial Assistant) | 35 WPM; minimum 350 evaluated words in this preset | Hindi Mangal Remington: 30 WPM; minimum 300 evaluated words in this preset | 10 minutes per practice attempt | Earlier source check The Madhya Pradesh High Court Junior Judicial Assistant 2022 notice describes separate 10-minute typing tests: 350 English words and 300 Hindi words, 40 marks each. Hindi is specified in Remington GAIL. This independent browser profile uses all-full mistake counting and a 40-mark deduction model; it cannot separately reproduce the notice's backspace penalty, so confirm the active cycle's instructions. Reference material: MP High Court (official site) — the 2022 recruitment advertisement PDF this profile was originally sourced from is no longer published; check current recruitment notices for the active cycle. |
| State Clerk (general practice) | 30 WPM | Hindi Mangal Inscript: 25 WPM Hindi Mangal Remington: 25 WPM Hindi Kruti Dev 010: 25 WPM | 10 minutes per practice attempt | Practice preset This general preset uses 10 minutes and practice targets of 30 WPM English or 25 WPM Hindi. These are site defaults, not verified requirements for a particular state recruitment. |
| PSSSB Clerk (Punjab Subordinate Services Selection Board) | 30 WPM | Punjabi Gurmukhi Inscript: 30 WPM | 10 minutes per practice attempt | Earlier source check; scoring approximation Post, language and speed requirements are read from the live official notice (Advertisement No. 02/2026, sssb.punjab.gov.in). The scoring mechanics come from a Board circular corroborated by several independent sources; the Board re-uploads its pattern each cycle, so check the current official notification before relying on any requirement. |
| HARTRON (Data Entry Operator Panel) | 30 WPM | Hindi Kruti Dev 010: 25 WPM | 5 minutes per practice attempt | Unconfirmed settings Secondary material informed the five-minute timer and 30/25 WPM targets. The 80% accuracy figure was single-sourced, and the Hindi Kruti Dev reference concerned SETC rather than this DEO panel. No primary notice established this complete combination of settings. |
| BSSC (Inter Level) | 35 WPM | Hindi Mangal Remington: 30 WPM | 10 minutes per practice attempt | Unconfirmed settings Secondary coaching sources informed the ten-minute timer, 35/30 WPM targets, Remington GAIL option and unrestricted editing. A primary BSSC skill-test notice was not read for these settings. Claims about the official interface, language sequence and merit treatment are not established by this preset. |
| NVS (Junior Secretariat Assistant) | 30 WPM | Hindi Mangal Inscript: 25 WPM | 10 minutes per practice attempt | Unconfirmed settings The earlier compilation used limited secondary material for the NVS speed targets. The ten-minute timer, Mangal InScript layout and 5%-allowance/ten-word-deduction model were borrowed from the KVS preset. No complete primary NVS skill-test instructions were read for these settings. |
| UPPSC (Assistant Review Officer) | Not offered | Hindi Kruti Dev 010: 25 WPM; minimum 125 evaluated words in this preset Hindi Mangal Inscript: 25 WPM; minimum 125 evaluated words in this preset | 5 minutes per practice attempt | Unconfirmed settings The secondary sources used described a Hindi ARO task and a keystroke-based deduction, but a primary UPPSC notice was not read. The preset uses a five-minute timer, 25 WPM and a 125-word minimum with standard net-WPM scoring. It does not verify RO exemptions, interview stages or the official error calculation. |
| Patna High Court (Computer Operator-cum-Typist) | 40 WPM; minimum 400 evaluated words in this preset | Hindi Mangal Inscript: 30 WPM; minimum 300 evaluated words in this preset | 10 minutes per practice attempt | Unconfirmed settings The secondary sources used for this profile disagreed about error limits and the relationship between typing marks and final merit. The preset uses 40/30 WPM and maximum errors of 10% English and 15% Hindi, with Mangal InScript as an assumption. A primary notice did not establish these combined settings. |
| KVS (Junior Secretariat Assistant) | 35 WPM | Hindi Mangal Inscript: 30 WPM | 10 minutes per practice attempt | Unconfirmed settings The preset uses 35/30 WPM, Mangal InScript and a 5% error-unit allowance followed by a ten-word deduction per extra error unit. Those settings were compiled from secondary sources, not a primary KVS skill-test notice. Confirm the permitted language choice and full evaluation method. |
| Beltron (Bihar Data Entry Operator) | 30 WPM | Hindi Mangal Remington: 25 WPM | 10 minutes per practice attempt | Unconfirmed settings This profile was compiled from secondary Bihar recruitment and practice-tool pages. The sources used did not establish an independent typing duration or editing policy. The ten-minute timer, 30/25 WPM targets and 5% error cap are practice settings that need checking against the current BELTRON notice. |
| Allahabad High Court (Junior Assistant) | 30 WPM; minimum 300 evaluated words in this preset | Hindi Mangal Inscript: 25 WPM; minimum 250 evaluated words in this preset | 10 minutes per practice attempt | Unconfirmed settings The earlier compilation used secondary coaching and practice-tool pages, not a primary Junior Assistant notice. It suggested ten minutes per language, 30/25 WPM and 25 marks per language with a 10-mark threshold. The 0.5-mark deduction used here was not sourced. Confirm the language requirement, keyboard and complete marking scheme for your recruitment. |
| EPFO (Social Security Assistant) | 35 WPM | Hindi Mangal Inscript: 30 WPM | 10 minutes per practice attempt | Unconfirmed settings The earlier compilation used secondary material for the 35/30 WPM targets and correct-word model. Its language-sequence and Hindi-layout claims were not established by a primary notice. This preset has no separate error-percentage cap; that does not establish the official evaluation method. |
| CBSE (Junior Assistant / Superintendent) | 35 WPM | Hindi Mangal Inscript: 30 WPM | 10 minutes per practice attempt | Unconfirmed settings The earlier compilation did not establish a primary CBSE source for the duration, Hindi layout or error-percentage rule. This preset uses ten minutes, 35/30 WPM and standard net-WPM scoring. It does not establish NCERT requirements or official language and merit conditions. |
| Rajasthan High Court (Clerk / Junior Judicial Assistant) | 8000 KDPH | Hindi Kruti Dev 010: 8000 KDPH | 10 minutes per practice attempt | Unconfirmed settings The secondary sources used for this profile conflicted on a five- or ten-minute speed section. This preset uses ten minutes and 8,000 KDPH, with Kruti Dev for Hindi and editing disabled. The complete format and any separate efficiency task need confirmation from the current High Court notice. |
| CG Vyapam (unconfirmed practice preset) | 5000 KDPH | Not offered | 15 minutes per practice attempt | Practice preset The 15-minute timer, 5,000 KDPH English target and editing policy are unconfirmed practice assumptions. This preset does not reproduce an established CG Vyapam exam format. |

Frequently asked questions
Are these government typing requirements official?
No. This is an independent practice comparison. Official source links are included where available, but you must verify the active notification for your recruitment cycle.
Why do two exams show different Hindi layouts?
Recruiting authorities can specify different fonts or keyboard arrangements. Practise the exact layout named in your target exam rather than assuming all Hindi tests are interchangeable.
Can I practise every listed exam online?
Each name links to a practice page. Some entries are generic presets or have unconfirmed settings; read the source note before choosing one.
