Typing speed test
Many clerk, data-entry and junior-assistant tests still check typing. This is practice, not an official NTS or departmental test.
Net WPM = (correct characters ÷ 5) ÷ minutes. Accuracy = correct characters ÷ characters typed. The best score is stored in this browser only. Government tests use their own passage and keyboard.
Questions
What typing speed do clerical jobs ask for?
Advertisements differ. Many data-entry and junior-clerk tests mention about 30 to 40 words per minute in English, sometimes with a separate Urdu test. Read the ad. This page only measures English.
How is WPM counted here?
Net WPM uses correct characters divided by 5, divided by the minutes you were given. Accuracy is correct characters divided by characters you typed.
Will this score be accepted in a government test?
No. Departments and testing services use their own software, keyboards and passages. Use this to practise, then sit the official test.
