Re: How many Words Per Minute can you type?

I honestly have no idea. It's been about 17 years since I last took a typing test (sometime in high school). But I type every day at work, so I guess it's good enough.

And yes, I'm very aware of how old that makes me sound. Chat Icon

I always thought 40-50 and that test gave me a 47

But I only use 6-8 fingers to type, so I guess that's not too bad! I was never trained, just learned out of necessity typing so many papers.

Accurately when copying from another text, about 70. I think I type faster when I doing it stream-of-consciousness...

I know what you mean, my work related 'typing" consists of short 1 - 3 letter commands, I generally have one hand on the keyboard and one on the mouse, that doesn't work well for actaul typing Chat Icon
