How to choose
- Read your notification and admit card for the layout and font.
- If you may choose, pick one layout and stay with it for every practice session.
- Practise on the same layout until your accuracy is steady, then add timed exam mode.
Remington CBI is allowed in some notices but is not offered in the practice app yet.
Common questions
Which keyboard layout should I choose?
Use the layout your notification names. If it lets you choose, pick the one you type fastest and most accurately, and practise only that one before the exam.
Can I switch layouts on exam day?
Only as far as the notice allows. Some tests let you pick the Hindi layout at the test centre, others fix it. Check your admit card and notice.
