Tap a letter to type it straight into the test box.
No Hindi keyboard layout? Leave Type in English on and write the sample the way it sounds — each word turns into Hindi as soon as you press space. Net WPM counts five characters as one word and subtracts your mistakes, the same way government typing exams score it. Nothing leaves your browser.
Three exams, and what differs between them
The presets above match the test lengths these examinations use. Everything else about them — the qualifying speed, the font, the software — is set by the board and changes between recruitment cycles, so the only safe source is the official notification for the post you are applying to. What follows is context for practice, not a substitute for reading it.
| Exam | Where | Typical length | Script usually required |
|---|---|---|---|
| CPCT | Madhya Pradesh | 15 minutes | Mangal (Unicode), sometimes Remington Gail layout |
| BELTRON | Bihar | 5 minutes | Hindi, commonly Kruti Dev in older cycles |
| UPSSSC | Uttar Pradesh | 3 minutes | Hindi, Mangal in recent cycles |
Accuracy is the part people lose on
Typing examinations almost always set a minimum on accuracy as well as speed, and errors are subtracted rather than forgiven. That means a candidate at thirty words a minute with high accuracy frequently passes where one at forty with careless accuracy does not. The net WPM figure above is calculated on the same basis, so it is the number worth watching.
The other thing that catches people out is duration. Fifteen minutes is not fifteen times one minute — concentration drifts, and the error rate usually climbs in the last third. If you are sitting CPCT, practise at the full fifteen at least sometimes, even though it is tedious.
Which font to practise in
If the notification says Mangal, you are typing normal Unicode Hindi and the practice above matches directly. If it says Kruti Dev, the keystrokes differ, because Kruti Dev maps Hindi onto Latin keys — the Kruti Dev page shows what the same sentence looks like in both, which is the quickest way to see why the two feel so different under the fingers.
What this page is not: it is not exam software, it does not reproduce any board's interface or passages, and passing here is not a prediction of the result. It is a timer, a sample sentence and an honest score.
