How Fast Can You Type?

[madeldoe]

Since I was sending in applications and needed to learn my words typed per minute, I decided to take a little typing test. When I took typing [i know theirs a fancier word..but i cant think of it atm] class in frosh year, i only averaged about 57 wpm's. Good to know that the hours upon hours spent sitting infront of the computer amounted to something

i only averaged about 57 wpm's

yeah that's not good at all
That being said, no way I'm posting until I rehearsed speed typing and such..

[thegurgi]

I can get an wpm average of about 68, but... i cheat at typing... like using nothing but periods as a use of pausing and not capitalizing except at the beginning of sentences. I don't capitalize i's... but i will for names. hrmm that's weird.

These tests just throw me off... cause of that darn SEMI-COLON! hahaha, but on the test i got the same accuracy as Nataku, i misspelled 9 words though [cause, i got ahead of myself, and didn't realize it until it was too late]. And i think my gross speed was 56.

sigh.

[EeZeReal]

LoL...I tried it once and me being the lord of typos (Yes..ask anyone ) noticed that if you go behind on a word..your score goes down 1 point everytime you press the spacebar

Haha..I'll try it again later

Crap, I wrote and then I closed the window..

Even though my job description is 'Accounts Assistant', I regularly fill-in for the secretary when she's away. I feel obliged to get a good score on this test so remind me to take it at a later date when I haven't consumed quite so much cider....... *hic*

aw, this was fun. I've never taken such test and always wondered how fast i typed!

so, here is my score:

not too speedy.. but no errors..yey, see i dont always do that lazy typing i do here... with all those dots and no cap...writing all those papers for school helped

not too bad for a person that recently cut off the middle finger of the left hand, and after re-attaching it... it is basically NOT used to typing anymore ... so that's 9 fingers speed .

God I hope not Since my result pretty much sucked at the Huck Finn one

[QueenBee]

Oh and could someone explain to me why the Huckleberry Finn text doesn't seem to make any sense?!

I never read much of it.. the first 30 words or such had some sense in them

Because, this is just how Huck talks lol.. its from the book, the very begining, as far as i remember...

[teeny]

I remember it from the movie, since I don't read books as much as I should.

Sooo.. Cool made me take the test 'cause apparently I was typing fast, so.. The first time (actually it was the second, but first after Cool told me) I accidently pressed "Next" twice and couldn't realise that the results could be sent to me since I missed them.. Oh, I'm so stupid. Anyways, I took the test and here are the results:

Test name: Huckleberry Finn
Gross Speed: 91 WPM
Errors: 15 Words
Net Speed: 76 WPM
Accuracy: 83%

Not too bad.. but so many errors.. it's because I wasn't looking at my typing.. when I type I can see there is something wrong so I go and correct it.. here I had to feel the keys when I made a mistake... But I'm happy with the results
