    Frequently asked questions

    How is WPM calculated?▾

    Typing tests count a 'word' as 5 characters, including spaces. WPM = correct characters ÷ 5 ÷ minutes. Raw WPM counts all characters typed, including mistakes.

    What is a good typing speed?▾

    The average adult types around 40 WPM. 60–80 WPM is fast and enough for most office jobs, and professional typists often exceed 80–100 WPM with high accuracy.

    Why is paste disabled?▾

    To keep the test honest — only real keystrokes count toward your score.

    How can I type faster?▾

    Learn touch typing with your fingers on the home row (ASDF JKL;), don't look at the keyboard, focus on accuracy before speed, and practice 10–15 minutes a day.
