  35. Beck said:

    Whats the difference between your WPM and CPM

  36. Beck said:

  44. Kayla said:

    dang usually I get over 70 but my n keeps sticking and apparently I’m it’s only 64. I’ll try again….tried to post but it didnt so….but now it says 68 so idk. I come from the generation where you took typing classes from like 2nd grade and continued on until 9th or whatever.

  45. pc said:

    Do you have a ten key test with just the numberic numbers, no dashes or plus signs. If you don’t do you know of a website that night? I need to take a ten key test and it is strictly numbers with no dashes or periods. This is for my employrers.

    Please advise

    Thank you,
    Paulette

  63. plooker said:

    “your typing speed is slow, try to pay more attention”!!!
    this is not a very encouraging comment when one has just completed the test at 45 words per minute.
    I suggest users try a different site if they wish to remain motivated.

  78. Lisamarie Evans said:

    I am want to take this typing test and it says my computer does not have this plugin installed. Does anybody know what the name of this plugin is called. It doesn’t tell me and I need it even on the othre typing test websites I have gone too.

  79. Diane Jones said:

    I need to email my typing test results to a potential employer. How do I do that? Please respond ASAP! Results must be sent immediately or I will not be considered for job.

  80. Teal said:

    Not such a great test. I found it hard to follow with the colors jumping around. I still had decent speed and accuracy but I prob would have been better if the words didn’t change color.

  81. ezekiel said:

    sadly I got only 12 wpm

  82. Beth said:

    I know I can type at least 50wpm or more but whenever I am being tested I freak out…rush myself and always get a score of 40-47wpm. Grr….

  83. nicole sims said:

  87. xiamara said:

    hello im a good one but maybe i should practice more head jobs( if u no wat i mean

  88. Skye said:

    I got 51wmp on here, but I don’t like this test very much because it highlights the words for you, if you go to a job, then it will not do this. It is much better practice if you find a test that just has a paragraph on top, the words you type on the bottom, and nothing more…

  89. C Atwood said:

    I am not seeing how to use the type test, PLEASE HELP!!!

  90. matthew said:

  92. Eleanor said:

    Three choices are not enough! Need various texts to choose from so we can have more of a change to test ourselves with. You should also add some tests for numbers. Would be helpful to improve and test ourselves with numbers as well. Thank you!

  93. Sheri said:

    If some one types a mistake from the beginning, it does not allow you to go forward with corrected typing. The typing by the applicant stays in red and it does not correct …

    Also, what is the average time to give the test?

  94. J said:

    It’s nice to offer a free test that can be used to prove one’s skills for an employer but I’ve been unable to find a way to save my results for submission to an online application.

  95. Emma said:

    Yeah baby! 75 wpm and I am 13! 98% accuracy

  96. Shauna Dalton said:

  150. anuran said:

    test type- 10 minutes
    speed – cpm-187 , accuracy -98%
    wpm-39 , accuracy-95%
    conclusion–a lot of work to do!!!
    aim —breaking the 100 wpm mark ,
    method i will adopt — kick the ass out the keyboard and burn my fingers

  151. jahangir,sitel said:

  156. Cassie said:

    I don’t think 74 WPM is moderate…

  157. Kayla said:

    i really like this activity!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i just wish that i could get my typing speed up a little bit though……… the highest that i can ever get is 32 and that is really bad and it stinks!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  158. nathan said:

    some of you are not telling the truth i know or maybe the people who sucked on this test are just afraid to tell the truth. There is no way that most of you got over 70 wpm. 70 wpm is about the speed of a professional typist and there is no way that most of you here are professional typists.

  159. Stacy said:

    I have to agree with Stacey…I can’t type 89 wpm, but I prob haven’t been typing for as long as she has…lol. But like Stacey said she wasn’t relaxed, and neither was I or I could prob do 45 wpm and that is with no mistakes.

  160. alexann said:

    aw come on for an 11yr old girl (or anyone) i don’t think that 47 wpm is slow

    The right margins in paragraphs given for the typing tests are cut off. It causes you to automatically make a mistake if you don’t know the wording….can you fix this for better accuracy?
