How Scoring Works

Punjab & Haryana High Court Clerk CPT calculates candidate net typing speed using the official SSSC formula: Net Speed = (Words Typed − Mistakes) ÷ 10. Every mistake deducts 1 full word from total words typed. Candidates qualify as long as their final Net Speed is 30.00 WPM or higher and error rate does not exceed 10%. Note that Part-I (Spreadsheet test: 5 questions in MS Excel for 10 marks) must be qualified first with at least 4 marks before Part-II (Typing test) is evaluated.

Practice Tips

  • ›While backspace is permitted, avoid excessive backspacing as it burns precious seconds in a 10-minute test. Prioritize first-pass accuracy.
  • ›Practice typing from physical printed paper to your screen (paper-to-screen) without looking at the monitor to simulate the exact test environment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is backspace allowed in the Punjab & Haryana High Court Clerk typing test?

Yes. In the official SSSC and High Court examination software, the Backspace key is functional and permitted. However, because each mistake deducts 1 full word ((Words − Mistakes) / 10), excessive backspacing to fix typos can consume valuable seconds and drop your overall speed below 30 Net WPM.

Is there a maximum error percentage limit for High Court Clerk?

Yes. High Court rules explicitly stipulate that candidates committing more than 10% mistakes are disqualified, even if their net typing speed exceeds 30 WPM.

What is the relation between the Spreadsheet Test and Typing Test?

The Computer Proficiency Test (CPT) has two parts. Part-I is the Spreadsheet Test (10 marks, min 4 to pass). Part-II is the English Typing Test (30 WPM). Part-II typing is evaluated ONLY IF you secure qualifying marks in Part-I Spreadsheet.

Is there any Punjabi or Hindi typing test for High Court Clerk?

No. The typing test for the post of Clerk (both for High Court Establishment and Subordinate Courts under SSSC) is strictly conducted in English.
