What speed do I need to pass?

30 WPM in a 10-minute test — taken directly from S.S.S.C.’s own Computer Proficiency Test clarification notice.

How is speed actually calculated?

S.S.S.C. states the formula directly: (Number of words typed − Mistakes) ÷ 10. Unlike AIIMS’s harsher ×10-per-mistake formula, this divides mistakes straight off the word count — the same structure as SSC CHSL’s model.

Is this test compulsory for the final merit list?

No — the Computer Proficiency Test (of which this typing test is Part-II) is explicitly qualifying only. Final merit comes entirely from the separate Written Computer Based Test; this typing test just needs to be cleared, not scored highly.

Is there anything before the typing test?

Yes — Part-I is a Spreadsheet (MS Excel) test, 10 minutes, and you need 4+ out of 10 marks there before your typing test is even checked.

SSSC Clerk, Subordinate Courts of Haryana — Typing Test: The Real Rules

Verified from S.S.S.C.'s own Notice No. 77/S.S.S.C. (dated 30.01.2023) and Detailed Employment Notice No. 36C/SSSC/HR/2026 (dated 22.05.2026). This is Part-II of the Computer Proficiency Test — qualifying only, checked after clearing Part-I (Spreadsheet, 4+/10 marks) — and doesn't affect the final merit list, which comes purely from the separate Written CBT.

Font	Standard English, QWERTY
Time	10 minutes
Minimum speed	30 WPM
Formula (official)	(Words typed − Mistakes) ÷ 10
Mistake categories	Not defined in the official notice — defaulted to SSC-style Full/Half
Backspace	Allowed
Result weight	Qualifying only — final merit comes from the separate Written CBT

How Mistakes Are Counted

S.S.S.C.'s notice states the formula directly — "Number of words typed − Mistakes, ÷ 10" — but, unlike AIIMS or SSC, doesn't define what actually counts as a mistake anywhere in either document. The categories below are the standard word-level model used across most other Indian government typing exams, applied here as the most reasonable default — not independently confirmed for this specific exam.

Full mistake (1.0): omitted word, wrong word, extra word, spelling error
Half mistake (0.5): spacing, punctuation, wrong capitalisation, paragraphing

Net WPM = (Gross words − Net mistakes) ÷ minutes, where Net mistakes = Full mistakes + (0.5 × Half mistakes) — each mistake costs exactly 1 word, matching S.S.S.C.'s own stated formula. This must clear 30.
