5
 IV. CALCULATION OF SPEED:

For example, of a 10 minutes Typing Test/DEST, the calculation will be:

TYPING TEST (in w.p.m.) DATA ENTRY SPEED TEST (DEST) (in KDPH)

Total No. of Strokes - Penalty Total No. of Strokes – Penalty x 60

50 10

e.g. 3,000-1,000 = 2,000 = 40 w.p.m. e.g. 3,000-1,000x60 = 2,000x60=200x60=12,000 kdph

50 50 10 10

V. CALCULATION OF ACCURACY:

In case of need for checking accuracy, it shall be calculated as follows:

TYPING TEST (in w.p.m.) DATA ENTRY SPEED TEST (DEST) (in KDPH)

Accuracy = Net Typing Speed__ X 100 Accuracy = Net Data Entry Speed__ X 100

Gross Typing Speed Gross Data Entry Speed

e.g. Accuracy = 40 X 100 = 80% e.g. Accuracy = 12,000 X 100 = 80%

50 15,000

Note:
(i) A single skill test examination will be conducted for all post in the group and

iii. If not resolved by (i) & (ii), the number of wrong answers / negative marks will be
used, wherein those with fewer wrong answers / negative marks will be placed
higher;
iv. If not resolved by (i), (ii) & (iii), the marks in skill test with candidate with higher
marks will be placed higher in merit;

6
v. If not resolved by (i), (ii), (iii) & (iv) accuracy of Typing Skill Test (Candidates with
higher accuracy will be placed above those with lower accuracy).
vi. If not resolved by (i), (ii) ,(iii),(iv),(v) and (vi) above, by using First Name of

Penalty = No. of Strokes – 1,000 i.e. (50x20)]

IV. CALCULATION OF SPEED :

For example of a 10 minutes Typing Test, the calculation will be :

TYPING TEST (in w.p.m.)

Total No. of Strokes - Penalty
50

e.g. 3,000-1,000 = 2,000 = 40 w.p.m.

50 50

V. CALCULATION OF ACCURACY :

In case of need for checking accuracy, it shall be calculated as follows :

TYPING TEST (in w.p.m.)

Accuracy = Net Typing Speed__ X 100

Gross Typing Speed

e.g. Accuracy = 40 X 100 = 80%

50

Note:
(i) A single skill test examination will be conducted for all post in the group and
