🚀 My Personal Journey with Government Exams
Real confession: When I first attempted the SSC CGL typing test, I didn't even know the minimum speed requirement. I thought 20 WPM was enough. I failed badly. My speed was 22 WPM, accuracy was 85%. I was devastated.
But that failure made me research everything about typing requirements. I discovered that SSC CGL needed 30 WPM, SSC CHSL needed 35 WPM, and banking exams needed 30 WPM with 95%+ accuracy. I created a structured practice plan using the exact requirements.
After 3 months of dedicated practice, I passed the typing test with 38 WPM. Today, I've helped 50,000+ students understand and achieve their target speeds. This guide shares everything I learned about typing speed requirements for government exams worldwide.
