GTKY. How many WPM can you type?

[Regina Philange]

I can type about 85 words per minute. I thought i was faster than that though. I like to think of myself as a really fast typer.

Your speed was: 85wpm.

You made 1 mistake, your mistake is shown in bold text:

I would say that 85 wpm with only 1 mistake is pretty blazing fast.

I was 58 wpm with 8 mistakes, though it doesn't help that the passage was something weird, so I had to think more about letter placement than if I was just typing out something like this reply.

Your speed was: 60wpm.

Congratulations! You made no mistakes, practice does make perfect.

It was a little awkward to type and there were a few mistakes making it even harder. It was supposed to say "then" but it said "the" instead. Also, I don't use nearly as many dashes and semi colons as the passage did.

[Regina Philange]

I agree, it was a little awkward to type.

I was also 58 with 8 mistakes! And wtf kind of words were those? I used to type 85-90wpm in middle and high school - I used to type faster than my computer teacher! I guess I'm slowin' down with old age. hahahahaha.

Also, I don't type the regular way. I taught myself to type before I ever had typing/computer classes in school, and I could never type fast with the normal fingers on the home keys. I type with my first 3 fingers and thumb on my left hand, and my first finger only on my right. LOL. It looks messed up, but I type faster than everyone I know. Gotta find your own way, I guess!

Your speed was: 49wpm.

You made 5 mistakes, your mistakes are shown in bold text:

(I still look at the keyboard most of the time! My home computer is a netbook, so the keys are spaced closer together so going from work to home messes me up - I probably should type faster, but oh well!)

We're keyboarding soulmates.

I took keyboarding in grade 9. It was such a joke. I do tend to type correctly. I need my wpm to include all my backspacing to correct mistakes I notice a word or two back.

[Regina Philange]

Can you guys type with your eyes close? This sentenc is with my eyes closed.



Hey, thats not that bad! Two mistakes. I should slow down on here and correct my mistakes. But i have to proofread my work emails all the time, that i guess i just kind of let loose on here, and typing without having to worry about mistakes is so much more fun.

[Regina Philange]

I also took a typing class in high school!! It's what made me so fast i think.

[laurack]

um I typed it all then was all proud, then realized I didn't hit start the clock. Gah

[Deleted]

This sentance is with my eyes closed. Hi guys!!!

Ooo, other than mispelling a word, LOL, I did good!

[TrudyCampbell]

80 wpm, 2 mistakes. However, I type much faster when I'm typing my thoughts and not copying something.

[The Foozzler]

Oops. Not so good with my eyes closed.

[Regina Philange]

76 WPM with zero mistakes. wahoo! I could have been faster with mistakes but I corrected my mistakes as I went.

[laurack]

Also I'm surprised as I never thought of myself as good at typing.

However, it must be all the forum-ing I'm doing! KNEW forums were a good thing for professional development.. lol
