About SSC CHSL Typing Test
SSC CHSL's skill test is a qualifying-only round — clear it and you're through, fall short and no amount of written-exam marks saves you. It's a 10-minute typing test on a formal, bureaucratic passage, and the language you choose at registration (English or Hindi) is locked in for the whole exam. This mock reproduces the same duration, the same style of passage, and the same net-WPM pass mark so you know exactly where you stand before test day.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is SSC CHSL's typing test scored, or just pass/fail?
Pass/fail only. Speed above the minimum doesn't add marks — it just clears the skill-test round so your written-exam score can be considered.
What is KDPH and why does SSC use it instead of WPM?
Key Depressions Per Hour — the government-exam convention where 1 word = 5 keystrokes. 35 WPM and 10,500 KDPH describe the same speed; SSC's official notifications use KDPH, so this mock shows both.
Can I switch between English and Hindi during the real exam?
No — SSC locks your language choice at registration. This mock lets you freely try both so you can decide which one you're actually faster in before the real deadline to choose.
