Ever wondered how fast you typed? How many words a minute?

I found this typing test a little while ago and I've been playing around with it. I had the best luck with "The Enchanted Typewriter," haha.

www.typingtest.com

These are my results:
Net Speed: 67 WPM
Accuracy: 95%
Gross Speed: 70 WPM
(words/minute)

It's a quick, online test (you don't have to download anything) and it requires Java, so I don't recommend taking the test if you're a dial-up user. It might freeze your computer.

Okay there is a exact topic like this but it isn't a poll. Its probably over 6 months old so it wouldn't matter and I can't seem to find it anyway.

I'll have to edit it later with my results

I take these test every day.

At one point I got 127 WPM.

with 85% accuracy.

Although, that was a long long time ago.

Now It would probably range around 80-90 with 90% accuracy.

I'll take that test later. I take computer keyboarding at school so I always know how fast I type, averaged anywhere between 100 and high 120's.

I'm not good at looking at something then typing it, I'm way faster If I type off the top of my head or I hear it verbally and then type it.

Yeah I can type way faster when I'm thinking about what I want to be typing and don't have to worry about spelling some weird sounding country just for the sake of worrying about accuracy. I'd rather be accurate with what I type on a daily basis instead of typing obscure words that one would never use.

Also people tend to think they type faster because their keyboard is loud and when you hear a bunch of noise and it sounds like a bunch of keys are being hit at once, then you get the false feeling that you're typing faster than you actually are.

95% accuracy

I thought I would have done better then that. I do have a tendency to hit backspace alot though...


Oh, and I have dial-up, it didn't freeze, but it did take a few minutes to load. (not as long as I expected it would take though)
