This is untimed educational practice for one applied skill. It is not a clinical, diagnostic, employment, or professionally recognized assessment, it does not produce a score or credential, and for the judgement and safety families it is not a substitute for your employer's own policies, training, or legal duties.
| Item | Choice | Answer |
|---|---|---|
| typing-keyboard-applied-s01-q01 | D | Invoice 4820-B, due 14/03, GBP 1,275.40 |
| typing-keyboard-applied-s01-q02 | B | A transposition: two adjacent letters typed in the wrong order |
| typing-keyboard-applied-s01-q03 | C | A dropped apostrophe has turned a possessive singular into a plural |
| typing-keyboard-applied-s01-q04 | A | Compare it against the source in small groups of digits, or use a field with a check digit that rejects an invalid number |
| typing-keyboard-applied-s01-q05 | B | Proofread the finished text yourself: a correctly spelled word in the wrong place is invisible to a spell-checker |
| typing-keyboard-applied-s02-q01 | C | On F |
| typing-keyboard-applied-s02-q02 | A | They let a touch typist find the home position by feel, without looking down |
| typing-keyboard-applied-s02-q03 | D | Keeping wrists straight rather than bent, forearms roughly level, the screen near eye height, and taking short breaks regularly |
| typing-keyboard-applied-s02-q04 | B | All ten digits and the common operators sit under one hand with almost no movement, and the 5 key carries a locating bump for touch entry |
| typing-keyboard-applied-s02-q05 | D | Each use removes a hand-to-mouse round trip and a visual search, and that is where most of the time in repetitive work goes |
| typing-keyboard-applied-s03-q01 | A | Flag it for verification and record the uncertainty rather than choose between them |
| typing-keyboard-applied-s03-q02 | D | 03/02/2024 |
| typing-keyboard-applied-s03-q03 | B | Transcribe it exactly as given and raise a query, because the job is fidelity to the source plus a flag |
| typing-keyboard-applied-s03-q04 | C | When an undetected error would be costly and no automatic validation can catch it |
| typing-keyboard-applied-s03-q05 | A | Keep the checking discipline and report that the batch will be short, because an error costs more downstream than the delay does |
| typing-keyboard-applied-s04-q01 | B | Net applies a penalty for errors, so it is the figure that reflects usable output |
| typing-keyboard-applied-s04-q02 | C | A standard unit of five keystrokes, including spaces |
| typing-keyboard-applied-s04-q03 | A | 55 with no errors, because finding and correcting an error costs far more than the extra speed saved |
| typing-keyboard-applied-s04-q04 | D | Practise at a pace you can hold without looking down and without errors, drilling the specific sequences you get wrong; speed follows accuracy |
| typing-keyboard-applied-s04-q05 | C | It is expected: typing speed is largely learned sequences, so unfamiliar strings have to be practised specifically |
