Selection Process

1. Computer Based Test (CBT): Initial filtering via a synchronized online assessment including both objective multiple-choice blocks and descriptive English typography tests.
2. Cross-Sectional Filtering: Evaluation of descriptive subjective papers occurs exclusively for applicants who achieve a minimum threshold of 33% marks within the General Knowledge module.
3. Computer Proficiency Test (CPT): Mandatory qualifying round checking practical application parameters across spreadsheets and text layouts.
4. English Typing Test: Achieving a professional formatting target speed of 30 Words Per Minute (WPM) on computerized keyboards.
5. Testimonial Authentication: Shortlisted candidates undergo original paper verification checkpoints alongside structural interactions.
6. Final Selection Order: Compiled purely on the absolute normalized performance order recorded in the primary online Computer Based Test (CBT).

Exam Pattern

The initial filtering tier features a Computer Based Test spanning an absolute timeline of 2 Hours. This examination integrates an objective block alongside a technical descriptive typing block.

Penalty Rule: A structural negative evaluation rule of 1/4th mark is enforced for every wrong alternative checked in the objective section. Unattempted questions attract no dynamic penalties. The descriptive portion must be typed out directly using the computer system interfaces during the test.

Computer Proficiency & Skill Tests

Candidates clearing the main written test will face the qualifying Computer Proficiency Test (CPT) which contains two segments:

• Part-I: Spread Sheet Evaluation: Conducted for 10 minutes containing a maximum value of 10 marks. Candidates must score a minimum of 4 marks (40%) to pass.
• Part-II: Word Processing & Typing Test: Checked only if a candidate passes Part-I. Requires typing in English at a verified processing speed of 30 Words Per Minute (WPM).
• The practical speed is derived using the standard formula:
  $$Speed = \frac{\text{Number of words typed} - \text{Mistakes}}{10}$$
  
• Locomotor disabled individuals with Both Arms Affected (BA) or certified individuals with specified physical typing limitations can request formal typing exam exemptions by uploading relevant medical certificates from a civil surgeon within 15 days of the written result announcement.

Normalization Framework

When the Computer Based Examination is arranged across multiple technical shifts, the mathematical balancing of scores within the objective module is handled using standard deviation calculations up to 5 decimal slots via the following equation:

This formula dynamically balances variable paper difficulty levels across multiple examination sessions to protect candidate merit integrity.
