About This Exam
The Delhi Police Head Constable Ministerial recruitment includes a Typing Test to assess candidates' keyboard proficiency. This qualifying stage evaluates both typing speed and accuracy, ensuring candidates can perform office-related documentation efficiently. Regular practice with timed passages helps candidates become familiar with the exam environment and improve overall performance.
Typing Test Pattern
Language: English
Test Mode: Computer-Based
Candidates type a given passage within the allotted time.
Speed and accuracy are both evaluated.
Excessive typing mistakes may affect qualification.
Regular mock practice helps build confidence before the actual exam.
Speed Requirement
Meeting the minimum typing speed is compulsory to move forward in the selection process.
The minimum typing speed required for the Delhi Police HCM exam is 30 Words Per Minute (WPM) in English or 25 WPM in Hindi.
Candidates typing below the minimum required speed are disqualified from the typing stage, regardless of how well they performed in the written exam.
Since the typing test carries actual marks (see scoring below), practicing well beyond the minimum qualifying speed is a smart strategy, not just meeting the bare minimum.

Selection Process Note
The complete selection process for Delhi Police Head Constable (Ministerial) consists of four stages in sequence: the Computer-Based Test (CBT), the Physical Endurance Test (PET) and Physical Standard Test (PST), the Typing Test, and the Computer Formatting Test. Only candidates who clear each stage progress to the next — a strong CBT score does not guarantee selection if you fail the minimum typing speed, and physical fitness standards must be met independently of your written exam performance. The final merit list is prepared based on candidates' performance across all these stages, after which selected candidates are appointed as Delhi Police Head Constables (Ministerial).
FAQs
What is the required typing speed for Delhi Police Head Constable Ministerial?
Candidates should achieve approximately 30 WPM in English with good accuracy.
Which keyboard layout should I use?
The standard QWERTY keyboard layout is recommended for practice and examination.
What happens if I don't meet the minimum typing speed?
Candidates who type below the minimum required speed are disqualified from the typing stage and cannot proceed further in the selection process.
How can I best prepare for the paper-to-screen typing format?
Practice with printed text sheets instead of only on-screen text, since paper-to-screen typing is harder due to continuous eye movement between paper and monitor, a higher chance of line skipping, and increased errors — regular timed 10-minute mock sessions in this exact format are the most effective way to prepare.
re the Typing Test and Computer Formatting Test qualifying or do they add to the merit list?
The Typing Test and Computer Formatting Test are qualifying stages — you must pass them to proceed, but for the Computer Formatting Test, scores do not contribute to the final merit list, while the Typing Test's 25 marks do count toward it.
