How fast can you type?

[Kfamr]

I've always liked typing tests for some reasons...

I got 140 wpm.

[conans_in_heaven]

they had weired words....i got 34 wpm......i stink!!!!

[Randi]

I think they reckon that a word is 5 letters average. In Denmark, we use letters per minute. My last test was just under 200 a minute, which isn't that fast. Of course, it also depends how many mistakes you make!

WOW!!! I've been out of practice!!!

My top speed, was only 57, but I was giggling too.( and you with your 140 wpm!!)

When I was taking college courses, in the 90's, my top speed was only 96, correct words per min.

computer keyboards are condensed, not requiring a forceful fingerstroke.

I still have a very old "Royal" typewriter , I bought it at a yard sale a long time ago for $10.00. I never used one of these before buying this one. It is ancient!!! yet, beautiful!!!

I learned how to type on the good old 60's models, then, whoopie, electric typewriters were introduced.


I loved taking this test, thank-you!!!! Fun, fun, fun!!!!

I'm rubbing my hands together, getting ready for another try at it later on.

i kept spelling diaguise wrong, hitting the H !!!

The sound of the keyboard keys made me start giggling!!!!!!!


but, oh, it was fun to take a typing test on a computer keyboard,

No return button to hit,

[Kfamr]

[K9soul]

Wee! Tried a different one. 270 wpm.

Wow, that's faster than the world record. (which is 211 wpm).

[K9soul]

Woohoo! I beat the world record too!

[Dorothy39]

Clap, clap, clap, clap!!!!

[Flatcoatluver]

I got 73

[moosmom]

I type 75 wpm with no errors.

I stink, I can't type under pressure.

[K9soul]

I stink, I can't type under pressure.

I never do as well under pressure either, because I think too much about it and try too hard. I think my best tested score was 106 wpm, but I type for a living. I think I could do a bit better but again I always fumble under the pressure of a test . Of course true typing ability has less to do with actual speed and more to do with accuracy and the ability to keep up a decent speed over time. Typing "fast" gets awfully hard after you've been doing it for four hours straight.

And, of course, the 300 score I posted isn't real.. That particular test has a way to "cheat" on it .
