Frequently asked questions

How is WPM calculated?
Words per minute is the number of characters you typed correctly, divided by 5 (the standard word length), divided by the minutes elapsed. Mistakes lower your accuracy score, but WPM itself reflects raw typing speed.
What's a good typing speed?
Most adults type between 35 and 45 WPM. 60+ WPM is considered fast, and professional typists often reach 80–100 WPM with high accuracy.
Do I need an account to take the test?
No - you can take the typing test as a guest. Creating a free account lets you save your results, track your WPM over time, and appear on the leaderboard.
Can I choose what I type?
Yes. Pick a random passage for a quick test, or choose a topic to practice text on a specific subject - numbers, punctuation, and more.
