Mines like 35. I know, that’s really bad. For those of you who don’t know, WPM stands for words per minute. It’s how fast you can type. You can take the test to find out here: Typing Test · Check your Speed and Practice, WPM
I type well enough to suit me.
I liken this to questions like “How long does your yoyo sleep?”
I got 35 also! But with 10 mistakes. I don’t think that’s too bad…
i got 18.10 with 8 mistakes… not too good
EDIT: Retook the test and got 29.17 with 3 mistakes. Getting better…
~ 50 WPM with 94+ accuracy.
I can type pretty fast if I’m just typing but not when I have to type something I’m reading…
99.26 WPM
99.39% accuracy, 1 mistake
according to that test.
42.47 wpm with 98.16% accuracy.
27 WPM with 93 accuracy.
I’m a fan of TypeRacer myself.
I am slowly switching over to Dvorak so my speed isn’t worth bragging about in any way, shape, or form.
just got 38 on TR :o
Speed: 85.91
Accuracy: 99.61 - 1 mistake.
~80 w/ 99% accuracy. I know I can do better though…
Mine is like an average of 68 with 97% accuracy on average.
about 70 words per minute… and 90% accurate…
50.27 1 error / took a typing class so not too bad I guess.
Speed: 82.06 WPM
Accuracy: 96.4%, 16 mistakes.
Hmm, I used to be able to type 80 wpm with decent acuracy. But i’m since out of practice. I haven’t actually checked my wpm for a while.
I’ve been meaning to switch over to Dvorak as well, but the thing I’m worried about is that I’ll forget QWERTY
Is it similar to learning 2nd languages? Like, being able to easily switch back and forth?
YEaaaa! power to you! I think it was second year of high school that I switched over for fun (wrote my paper in it, and that helped a lot). I’m actually not sure if it really increased my words per minute, but it was definitely fun and interesting to do something funky. I’m doing about 108 wpm with 95-100% accuracy if the test isn’t funky (I mean not funky by the text being closer to what I type daily). Not too shabby, but I always wonder how people get to the 200’s…
