- Scaled score — English: 30–40 NWPM = 50%, 41–50 = 60%, 51–60 = 70%, 61–70 = 80%, 71–80 = 90%, 81+ = 100%. Hindi: 20–25 = 50%, 26–30 = 60%, 31–35 = 70%, 36–40 = 80%, 41–50 = 90%, 51+ = 100%.
- In CPCT an extra space can make following words count as wrong; our engine re-aligns words, so it is more forgiving than the real software on spacing slips.
- Departments may require higher speeds than the CPCT pass mark.
