Why Touch Typing is Essential for SSC CGL Tier 2
The SSC CGL Tier 2 DEST (Data Entry Speed Test) is qualifying in nature, but failing it means disqualification from the entire exam, regardless of your mathematics or English score. You must maintain a continuous typing speed of 27-30 WPM with high accuracy.
The Foundation Method
- Muscle Memory over Sight: This course forces you to map keys to specific fingers. Do not look at your keyboard; look at the virtual keyboard on the screen instead.
- Strict Mode: In the early lessons, the system will reject wrong keystrokes. You must press the correct key to move forward. This prevents bad habits from forming.
- Finger Placement: Always return your index fingers to the 'F' and 'J' keys. The bumps on these keys are your anchor.
