How to prepare for timed exams
Competitive typing exams reward more than raw keyboard speed. You may need to manage a timer, a fixed passage, punctuation, accuracy requirements and unfamiliar wording. Practice under similar conditions so the interface and time pressure become familiar.
Run full simulations occasionally, but use shorter drills between them. After each simulation, review the reason for errors. If you know your weak point, the next session can be specific instead of simply another full test.
Turn the idea into a habit
Good typing improvement is cumulative. The value of a technique appears when you repeat it across many short sessions. Avoid changing several variables at once. If you are working on accuracy, keep the passage and time reasonable. If you are testing speed, keep the conditions consistent. This makes it easier to understand what actually helped.
