Frequently asked questions
What is a good typing speed?
The average adult types around 40 WPM. 60–70 WPM is good for office work, and over 90 WPM is fast. Professional typists often reach 100 WPM or more.
How is WPM calculated?
Every 5 characters typed, spaces included, count as one word. Typing 300 characters in a minute is 60 WPM. Net WPM then takes off one word per minute for each uncorrected error.
What is the difference between net and raw WPM?
Raw WPM counts everything you typed. Net WPM takes away uncorrected errors, so 60 raw WPM with 5 errors in a minute is 55 net WPM.
How is accuracy worked out?
It is the share of keys you pressed that were right. Typing 200 characters with 10 wrong is 95% accuracy, even if you fixed some of them.
Which test length should I choose?
60 seconds is the standard and gives a steady result. 15 and 30 seconds suit quick practice, and 120 seconds tests stamina.
How can I type faster?
Use all ten fingers from the home row, keep your eyes on the screen and aim for accuracy first. Ten minutes of practice a day usually adds speed within weeks.
