What this lesson covers

Lesson 8 introduces real exam-style passages. Up to now you have typed isolated phrases and short sentences. Now you type continuous prose — the same style and register that the SSC CHSL and Court Clerk passages use.

The new rule for this lesson: accuracy first, speed second. Type at 90 per cent of your maximum WPM. The goal is 96 per cent accuracy or better. If you drop below that, slow down further.

Why this rule? Because real exam scoring is Net WPM with full-mistake error penalty. 35 Gross WPM with 95% accuracy clears the cutoff. 40 Gross WPM with 88% accuracy fails. The pattern of aspirants who fail despite practice is almost always the same: they pushed speed before they had accuracy locked in.

Drills — type along, do not skip

Passage 1 — Government scheme paragraph
~120 words. Aim: 25 WPM at 96%+ accuracy. Repeat until clean.

Why this lesson matters

Lesson 8 takes seven days because accuracy is built by repetition, not by single sessions. Type the same passage 5-7 times across the week. Each repetition tightens your accuracy. Each repetition shaves 1-2 WPM off your error penalty.

Aspirants who skip this lesson — who jump straight to Lesson 9 speed drills — keep their inaccurate keystrokes. Their exam Net WPM stays 5-7 points below their Gross. Patience here pays exam-day dividends.
