🧮 Typing Speed Calculation Formula
The formula commonly used by RRBs for calculating typing speed is:
Typing Speed (WPM) = (Total Words Typed − (Final Mistakes × 10)) ÷ Time (Minutes)
If your final WPM is 30 or above (English) / 25 or above (Hindi), you qualify for the typing test.
💡 Important Notes
