I went here and scored 73 words a minute the first time through with 100% accuracy. I did the test again which had the same test and scored 79 with 98% accuracy. I just typed how I normally do. So I type somewhere near the 73-79 mark depending on familiarity with the subject. Not too bad. I know a lot of people who type better and faster. But my scores mean I type faster than my secretary. 
Now where is that gloating smiley. Oh yeah 
66 wpm first time out, no mistakes. That doesn’t seem right to me somehow…in my high school typing class I thought I was typing pretty fast, but I never scored above 55 wpm. My mom, a former legal secretary, used to type at above 100 wpm, and that was considered more than exceptional–I find it hard to believe that more than 50 out of the 3900-odd who took the test scored that high (unless legal secretaries are jumping in to skew the results).
77wpm 99% accuracy.
85wpm 99% accuracy.
That’s what 2 novels over 300 pages will do to a man.
Gross Speed: 81 wpm
Net Speed: 76 wpm
93% accuracy
62 WPM, 100% accuracy
I have never learned touch typing, and use a sort of modified five-finger typing method (using index finger and thumb on my left hand, and middle, index, and thumb on my right).
37 wpm, 1 error.
Y’all go ahead, don’t wait on me.
Gross speed: 128 WPM
Net Speed: 125 WPM

Now to try again at home on the ergonomic keyboard, rather than this laptop which is so small I can span it with one hand.
81 WPM, 100% accuracy.
Confession: I used to play around with that Mavis Beacon typing program for fun.
It is amazing how much one improves every time they take the same test. I am at 88 now (100% accuracy). I think my normal typing is around the 73 WPM mark though because that shows how fast one would type normally without any extras added in.
And Ino, that is one impressive speed record you have going there. Where did you learn to type?
Gross speed: 117 wpm
Net speed: 116 wpm

This is my third try; the first one I had around 130wpm, but my accuracy was only 96%.
67 wmp.
(yes, a fwe misatkes.)
Gross Speed 97 WPM
Net Speed 94 WPM
96% accuracy.
Confession: I used to work in the ninth ring of hell … otherwise known as a word processing center. I would sit in a small, windowless room with 8 other drones where we would listen to recordings with our dictaphones and type for 10 hours a day. Just thinking of it now makes me shudder. haha
65 WPM, with 85% accuracy. Of course, I am actually faster if I am typing from my head, not from something written on a screen or book. I look at the keyboard when I type, not so much because I have to as just as a secutity measure for myself. I have always looked at the keyboard when typing, and to not do so feels weird. So when I type from something written, I have to look at the screen, memorize a few words from the passage, then look back to the keyboard to type them out.
86 WPM, with 97% accuracy. That’s what MUD gaming will do for you. And, to my credit, I have a mild case of cerebral palsy, which affects my right hand (hey, I did say mild :)) but I’ve been on the internet for about 9 years, so I can type fast – though I can only do an advanced pecking with my right hand. 
72 wpm–however, I’m still getting used to the laptop keyboard after being on a desktop over break. It freakin’ hurt to type!
I have to look at the keyboard when I type, so I scored a measly 56 wpm. My roommate came in here wondering why here was hearing bursts of typing like a machine gun, when i would type out a few words and then look up to see what was next.
88 WPM with 96% accuracy. Better than I thought I woul do.
52 WPM…of course I am much faster when I’m looking at the output of what I’m typing and not a some text to copy. I have no need to be a transcriptionist. I just type as I think usually.
I’m so glad you posted this.
I’ve lost a couple of secretarial jobs because my typing speed wasn’t fast enough. I don’t think that’s fair, because I am good at creating great looking documents and spreadsheets, slideshows, etc., but they have strict typing speed minimums just as though typing pools were still the slave-driving norm.
