How fast can you type?

60 WPM
Keystrokes 334 (302 | 32)
Correct words 56
Wrong words 5

I'm pretty much a 4 finger typer. Can touch type (like head back, eyes closed relaxing while typing stuff up/being dictated to) but never got round to properly teaching myself to type with all of both hands :)
 
How many of you also added the spaces in?

I also seem to type by pattern- eg I'd type "of" after the word "both" and "thought" even if wasn't the word I wanted.


WPM: 77
Keystrokes: 401 (384 correct; 17 errors)
Correct Words: 75
Wrong Words: 3

better than 91.37% of luddites.

Seems 84 is about my average.

If i make up the sentence myself i can definitely do it faster though, just feels like im a bit slow at responding to the word infront of me when it's random. I'd love to have one of these that will simply pickup the words you type and calculate it.
 
I'm Interested in learning to touch type. Ive printed a colour coded keyboard map and I'm forcing myself to follow it. Is that a good place to start?

Its taken ages to write this lol.

Mine is quite slow haha, but i am a two finger typer, cant imagine what over 100wpm typing looks like, thats pretty cool!
 
I'm not the fastest typist and plus my keyboard is pretty bad considering its a cheap membrane keyboard (backup, I had cherry red but didn't like them, blues are next :D)


My score (It's bad, I hate low profile keybaords with smaller keys than a standard normal keyboard...)

This is the most hilarious humblebrag I've seen in a long time.

"Guys, look at me, I'm SOOOOO slow, I can only type faster than 98% of the population! I'm so embarrassed!"

Edit: to answer the OP's question, I can type around 100-120wpm in these online typing tests, but they're not an accurate representation of real world typing speed. I doubt I type faster than 75wpm when I'm typing something real instead of an artificial test with limited punctuation and vocabulary.
