So I can't think of too many threads that I have made like this, but I stumbled upon a website that tests your typing speed, and tried it to find that on average I type at about 30 words per minute. So I got curious as to what the typing speed of others on AG is.

So seriously what is your typing speed?

You can use this site to test your typing speed and get an accurate reading of it:

Its just one of those random thoughts of mine...

I got 34 first run. Pretty close to my usual estimate of 40.

Of course, I'm odd. I've never actually taken a course in typing. I had to teach myself because I was to clogged up in courses.

At least I have a 97.6% accuracy rate :P

I think this site is cool.

I got 57 wpm, some crazy guy can have 184 wpm! is he human? more than 3 times of me????

I see all of them who have megaracer title have 99-100 percent of accuracy.

I think accuracy makes your score bigger, or nicer???

I got 53 wpm. I remember the last time I was not under stress. I got around 65 wpm.

Shockingly enough, those people aren't cheaters of some sort. The highest recorded typing speed of a person was somewhere around 220 wpm.

They're like professional typists.

You are very correct. It does make your WPM score higher.

I think my score isn't shabby for one who isn't skilled. I'm not great.

80 wpm. I beat my typing teacher back in junior high lol.

- If you're a court interpreter (noting down everything said in court) you have to have over 120 wpm. Yet again there's only 16 keys lol.

But Klaus is right, when are you going to need to type about the ridiculous sentences they give you?

i haven't done that crap since grade school.

maybe 60 now... not great accuracy but i can do 70.

but accuracy doesn't matter, it's typing, it corrects it for you if care enough to program the word processor.

Showing 16-30 of 70
