Kruti Dev is the most widely used legacy Devanagari font in India, and for a large number of state government recruitment tests it is still the layout candidates are examined on. If your notification names Kruti Dev, this is the layout to practise — not InScript, and not Remington Gail, however much more modern they may be. The key positions are what the exam will measure.
Technically, Kruti Dev is not a keyboard layout at all but a font. Typing in it means typing ordinary Latin bytes, which the Kruti Dev font then draws as Devanagari glyphs. That is why a Kruti Dev document opened on a machine without the font turns into unreadable Latin gibberish, and why examination boards have been steadily moving to Unicode. This test takes the honest route: it reproduces the exact Remington-family key positions Kruti Dev uses, so your fingers learn the real thing, but it writes proper Unicode Devanagari to the screen so the text stays readable and your results stay meaningful.
Two habits make Kruti Dev distinctive under the fingers, and both trip up typists coming from Unicode layouts. The short-i matra is struck BEFORE its consonant — you type ि then क to get कि — and the reph is struck AFTER its base consonant even though it is written before it. Those orderings are a direct inheritance from the typewriter, where the carriage had to move in a particular direction, and they are the single most common source of errors when a Kruti Dev typist first practises on a Unicode engine. This test handles the reordering for you, exactly as the font does.
Practise at the length your exam actually sets rather than at whatever feels comfortable. State typing tests commonly run to a fixed passage or a fixed number of minutes, and the skills those demand differ: a short test rewards burst speed, a long one rewards a rhythm you can hold. Match the test length here to the notification and the score you see will mean something.
Three pages is the longest test on 91Typing and it is unapologetically demanding. This is not a benchmark you take casually — it is an endurance trial, closer to a real working session than to a speed check, and it will expose anything unreliable in your technique. If a weakness exists in how you type, three pages will find it.
What makes it valuable is precisely that it cannot be faked. Short tests can be carried by concentration and adrenaline; over three pages, those run out and what remains is whatever your hands do automatically. Typists who have genuinely internalised touch typing hold a steady pace throughout. Typists who still glance at the keyboard, or who rely on a few strong fingers to compensate for weak ones, watch their speed and accuracy decay page by page. That decay curve is the most honest diagnostic available anywhere on the site.
Use it as a periodic assessment rather than routine practice — perhaps once a fortnight, or as a final rehearsal before a data entry examination. Taking it more often trains tiredness rather than skill. The productive pattern is to run it occasionally, note exactly where your performance degraded and which keys the errors clustered around, and then spend the following weeks on targeted drills for those specific weaknesses before testing again.
Take the ergonomics seriously at this length. Sustained typing sessions of this duration, repeated regularly with poor posture, carry a genuine risk of repetitive strain. Keep wrists straight and floating, shoulders relaxed, feet flat, screen at eye level, and take a proper break afterwards rather than going straight into another attempt. If you feel tingling, numbness or pain in your hands, wrists or forearms, stop — that is a signal to rest and, if it persists, to seek medical advice rather than to push through.
Yes, for many state-level recruitment tests, though the picture is shifting. Central examinations have largely moved to Unicode Mangal, while a number of state boards and court or clerical recruitments continue to examine in Kruti Dev. Always check the notification for the exam you are sitting, since boards change this between cycles.
No. This test reproduces the Kruti Dev key positions but renders the result as Unicode Devanagari, so it works in any browser with nothing installed. What you practise is the finger movement, which is the part the exam measures.
It is inherited from the mechanical typewriter, where ि had to be struck first so the carriage ended in the right place. Kruti Dev kept that behaviour, so कि is typed as ि then क. This test applies the same reordering, which is why the character appears to jump into place as you type.
The key positions are essentially the same — both are Remington-family legacy fonts, and a typist fluent in one can use the other almost immediately. They differ in the font files and in which exams and offices adopted them, which is why they are offered here as separate tests.
Let the exam decide. If your notification specifies Kruti Dev, practise Kruti Dev. If it specifies Mangal or Unicode, learn InScript, or Remington Gail if you already have typewriter muscle memory. If nothing constrains you, InScript is the better long-term investment because its output is readable everywhere.
It suits candidates preparing for data entry examinations, working transcriptionists, and anyone who wants an honest measure of sustained typing ability. Beginners are better served by the 1-minute and 3-minute tests until a steady technique is established.
Roughly once a fortnight, or as a final rehearsal before an exam. It is demanding enough that frequent attempts train fatigue rather than skill. Use shorter tests and targeted drills for regular practice.
It usually means your typing is not yet fully automatic, so sustaining it consumes conscious effort that runs out. Structured touch-typing lessons and weak-key drills address this far more effectively than repeating long tests.
For most people an occasional long run is fine, but repeated long sessions with poor posture carry a real risk of repetitive strain. Keep your wrists straight and floating, take proper breaks, and stop immediately if you feel tingling, numbness or pain — see a doctor if it persists.
Look at where your performance degraded and which keys your errors clustered around, rather than at the headline WPM. Those two details tell you exactly what to drill over the following weeks, which is what actually moves your score.
