How the result is worked out

Your typing is matched against the passage word by word. A missing, extra or wrong word is a full mistake. A capital-letter, punctuation or spacing slip is a half mistake. Gross speed counts every 5 characters as one word. Net speed subtracts mistakes. This is the same idea most Indian exams use, though each exam sets its own pass mark — use the exam-mode tests to check against yours.

Which Hindi layout does my exam use?

Most central exams that test Hindi typing on computer (SSC, RRB) let you choose between Remington GAIL and Inscript in Mangal font. Kruti Dev uses the same key positions as Remington, so practise in Remington mode. Some state exams name the font and layout in their notification — check yours on the exam page.
