How Scoring Works

The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) conducts the Junior Secretariat Assistant (JSA) typing test in English (35 WPM / 10,500 KDPH) or Hindi (30 WPM / 9,000 KDPH) over 10 minutes based on Central Government / DoPT norms. Up to 5% errors are permissible. Candidates must also qualify in a companion Computer Proficiency Test (CPT) benchmarked to NSQF Level-5 covering MS Office applications. Both the typing test and CPT are qualifying; final merit selection is determined by marks obtained in the 150-mark Computer-Based Examination.

Practice Tips

  • ›Maintain a steady 38–40 WPM pace in practice to ensure your net speed comfortably clears 35 WPM with 95%+ accuracy.
  • ›Don't neglect MS Office basics; both typing speed and the Level-5 CPT module must be cleared.
