A few weeks ago in one of my computer classes, we determined our typing speeds. I type 60 words per minute, even I didn't know I could go that fast. | |||

About 70-75 here. That is I was tested at 75 but I think I've slowed down a bit. Oh and if anyone says they're over 120, they're lying incidentally. (edited by Davis on 12-04-04 03:50 PM) (edited by Davis on 12-04-04 04:25 PM) |

You have to take into consideration what you will be typing. If it's something I've hammered out like eight hundred million times before then it's usually a cinch to type it fast. But if it's an article about cyctic nanofribrosis in the ... blah blah you know, then fat chance. WPM only really matters in the context in transcription from text to computer, or in taking dictation. When I worked for a survey company they had a minimum of 25 wpm which is fucking pathetic. | |||

Well I'm not sure about that. Umm...I'd say about 11 to 20 words. I'm slow at typing. | |||

Depends on what I'm typing. If it's something in which I must use insanly long words, then it's gonna take a while (because there long and that I don't know how to write them, most of the time). But i'D say arouind 75-85. I'd say that it's more than 80, normaly. | |||

I can do 70 WPM. Oddly enough, it's 70 WPM for both looking at what I'm typing and when I think about it myself. |

I know how. First, you need to find some text. The longer and wordier the text, the better. When you've found the text, position your mouse pointer over the first letter. Press the mouse button and hold it down while you move the pointer to the last character, then release it. Now, hold down the "CTRL" key on your keyboard, and press the key marked "C". Next, open a program like gedit, Notepad, Word, or the reply box at Acmlm's Board. Hold down the "CTRL" key and the key marked "V", and keep them held down until the minute is up. |

Last time it was tested, which was a while ago, I was at 27 words per minute. This was about three years ago, and by now I'm probably up to at least 40 with all the typing I do posting at boards... | |||

Im somewhere in the 70-80wpm range... My MOM can do upwards of 110wpm though... maybe its because she was an accountant once. |

I think I'm in the 61-80 range based on previous tests that I've done. I'm a pretty fast, accurate typer, which comes in handy online. Chats, posts, essays, etc. |

I honestly don't know how fast I can type.... depending on whether I'm on a good day or bad day.... I could probably do 60 easily.... not that it's a big deal... anything above 30 or 40 is more than enough.... and anything too high usually ends up with more errors (for me at least) which means I have to retype half my words |

For most people it`ll be a lot lower if they're copying something. Last I checked I ranked 91, though I'm sure it's lower now since I've not been using my proper typing style (haven't really done a lot of it lately, unfortunately) |
