Hey There,

I just went through a typing test after years with no serious testing, I remember, during high school  I was happy getting to 50 word per minute with 98% accuracy (touch typing) and during final year’s exams I get around 55 (That was 5 years ago). And yes, I was practicing till even a few hours before the exam, may be thought about learning something beneficial!

Wikipedia Says:

In one study of average computer users, the average rate for transcription was 33 words per minute, and only 19 words per minute for composition.^[1] In the same study, when the group was divided into “fast”, “moderate” and “slow” groups, the average speeds were 40 wpm, 35 wpm, and 23 wpm respectively.

An average professional typist reaches 50 to 70 wpm, while some positions can require 80 to 95 (usually the minimum required for dispatch positions and other typing jobs), and some advanced typists work at speeds above 120.

A few days ago, I went through a typing test and got the results:

Cool typing speed, but not so good accuracy, I can say that taking the exams isn’t the normal state to evaluate touch typing speed, as you’ll be going naturally for the highest speed, so, normally when you’re typing you don’t actually type in this speed.

Can also say that in the test you type from the text you see in the screen, so that take some time to proceed in your mind other than writing directly from your mind.

Anyway, I’ll be refining my typing skills, especially for DeveloperMan‘s upcoming video tutorials.
