Exam-level English passages with capitals and punctuation, scored the way skill tests are scored.

English typing test for government exams

English typing is part of the skill test for SSC CHSL LDC/JSA (35 WPM), SSC DEST (8,000 KDPH), RRB NTPC typist posts (30 WPM), Supreme Court JCA and Delhi High Court JJA (35 WPM) and many state exams. This test uses exam-style passages with capital letters, commas, semicolons and official vocabulary so the practice matches the real exam.

Tip: once you cross your target speed with highlight on, switch Highlight off and practise with Backspace off for a few days — that is closest to exam pressure. New to typing? Start the free English typing course.

Frequently asked questions

What English typing speed do I need for SSC CHSL?

35 words per minute in English (about 10,500 key depressions per hour) in a 10-minute test.

Are capital letters and punctuation checked?

Yes. A capitalisation or punctuation difference is counted as a half mistake; wrong, missing or extra words are full mistakes.

How long should I practise every day?

30–45 minutes of focused practice daily — a short warm-up, two or three 10-minute tests and a review of your mistakes — gives steady improvement.
