The four Phase II papers, how marks per correct word work, the 9-mark minimum, DevLys 010 Hindi and a four-week plan.
The Phase I result for RSSB Clerk Grade-II / Junior Assistant (Advertisement 04/2026, 10,644 posts) came out on 28 September 2026. If you cleared it, the computer typing test is the next step — and it is scored differently from most typing tests. There is no fixed WPM target: you earn marks for every correct word, and you need a minimum in each of four papers. This guide explains the pattern, how the marks work and how to prepare in the weeks before the test date is announced.
Both names are still in use. The Rajasthan Subordinate and Ministerial Services Board (RSMSSB) is now the Rajasthan Staff Selection Board (RSSB). The post once called LDC is now advertised as Clerk Grade-II / Junior Assistant. Old guides and new notices describe the same recruitment and the same typing test.
Phase II has four separate papers. Each lasts 10 minutes and carries 25 marks, and you must score at least 9 marks (36%) in every one of them.
| Paper | Time | Marks | How it is scored |
|---|---|---|---|
| English typing speed | 10 min | 25 | 0.05 marks per correct word, from a 500-word passage |
| Hindi typing speed | 10 min | 25 | 0.0625 marks per correct word, from a 400-word passage |
| English efficiency | 10 min | 25 | Formatting tasks on the computer |
| Hindi efficiency | 10 min | 25 | Formatting tasks on the computer |
Missing the 9-mark minimum in even one paper means you do not qualify, however well you did in Phase I. RSSB’s notice allows a 5% relaxation in the minimum for SC/ST candidates.
Because marks come only from correct words, it helps to turn them into a speed target:
| Goal | English (10 min) | Hindi (10 min) |
|---|---|---|
| Minimum 9 marks | 180 correct words — about 18 WPM | 144 correct words — about 14.4 WPM |
| 15 marks | 300 correct words — about 30 WPM | 240 correct words — about 24 WPM |
| Full 25 marks | 500 correct words — 50 WPM | 400 correct words — 40 WPM |
The minimum is low, but typing marks count, so every extra correct word helps. A steady 30 WPM in English with few mistakes is a sensible practice target. Our free mock test scores you exactly like RSSB — marks per correct word from a 500-word passage, with the same backspace rule.
Accuracy is worth more than speed here: A wrong word earns nothing, and you cannot go back to fix a word once you press Space. Typing 35 words a minute with many errors can score less than typing 28 cleanly.
In the speed papers, Backspace works only inside the word you are typing. Once you press Space or Enter, that word is locked. Practise the habit of checking each word as you finish it, and never look back to fix earlier ones.
The Hindi paper uses the DevLys 010 font with the Remington (GAIL) keyboard layout — the same typewriter-style layout family as Krutidev. It is not Inscript (Mangal), and skills from one do not carry over to the other. If you have been practising Inscript, switch to Remington practice now.
Remington Hindi practice is coming soon on TypingAbhyas. Until then, practise the English paper here and use Remington software for Hindi.
The efficiency papers test formatting on the computer rather than speed. RSSB’s instructions for the last recruitment used MS Word and Excel 2013, with tasks such as paragraph formatting, page setup, headers and footers, fonts, table borders, spacing and find-and-replace. Practise these on any computer with MS Office, and check the 2026 instructions for the exact software.
| Week | Focus | Daily practice (45–60 min) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Accuracy | One 10-minute English test and one Hindi session at a comfortable pace. Aim for 97% accuracy. |
| 2 | Weak keys + efficiency | Drill your most-missed keys. Add 15 minutes of Word and Excel formatting tasks. |
| 3 | Speed | Short 1-minute sprints a little above your pace, then one full test. Keep accuracy above 95%. |
| 4 | Exam simulation | All four papers back to back, 10 minutes each, with fresh passages and the locked-word rule. |

There is no fixed WPM. You need at least 9 of 25 marks in each paper, which is about 180 correct English words or 144 correct Hindi words in 10 minutes — roughly 18 and 14.4 WPM.
Only correct words earn marks: 0.05 marks per correct word in English and 0.0625 in Hindi. Full marks need 500 correct English words or 400 correct Hindi words in 10 minutes.
