How Scoring Works

Under Haryana Government service rules, HSSC Clerks must qualify the State Eligibility Test in Computer Appreciation and Applications (SETC) conducted by HARTRON. Part-II of SETC is a 5-minute typing speed test on a computer. Speed is evaluated using 5 strokes per word. Each mistake reduces your Net Speed by (Mistakes ÷ 5). Candidates qualify as long as their final Net Speed is 30.00 WPM (English) or 25.00 WPM (Hindi).

Practice Tips

  • ›Maintain an even typing cadence: because 5 strokes equal 1 word, precision with punctuation and spacing keeps your Gross WPM high.
  • ›Correct obvious typos immediately with backspace, but avoid over-backspacing to maintain a pace above 30+ Net WPM.
