On a phone? Best: connect a USB keyboard with an OTG cable (or a Bluetooth keyboard) – it works exactly like a computer. You can also type with the phone keyboard: tap the white box. The real SSC exam is on a desktop keyboard, so practise on a real keyboard as much as you can.
VH candidates who opt for a scribe get a passage dictator. OH candidates permanently unfit for typing can be exempted with the Civil Surgeon / Medical Board certificate and the Commission's approval. Mistakes allowed for PwD: DEST posts 10%, CPT posts 10%, other CGL posts 30%.
