Online Typing Test and Typing Speed Practice

Typing is half of every stenographer skill test: after taking down the dictation you still have to transcribe it on a computer within a fixed time. StenoPro includes timed typing tests so you can train that half properly.

Every test reports gross and net speed, accuracy and the exact words you got wrong, so your next session targets real weaknesses.

What the typing test measures

  • Words per minute over the full passage, not just a short burst
  • Accuracy percentage with a word-by-word mistake list
  • Omissions, extra words and spelling errors shown separately
  • History of attempts so you can see speed and accuracy trends

How to use typing tests to improve

Start with accuracy. A fast transcript full of errors fails most skill tests, so aim for 95%+ accuracy before pushing speed.

Once accuracy is stable, increase test length. Exam transcription runs for many minutes, and stamina matters as much as peak speed.

Who should practise here

  • SSC Stenographer and court stenographer aspirants preparing for transcription
  • Candidates preparing for government clerk and typist typing tests
  • Shorthand students who want to shorten their transcription time
