Typing Speed Test — frequently asked questions
How is WPM calculated?
WPM counts every 5 correctly typed characters (including spaces) as one word, divided by the test time in minutes. Mistakes reduce your accuracy and don’t count toward WPM.
How can I type faster?
Learn touch typing with all ten fingers, keep your eyes on the screen, focus on accuracy first, and practise a few minutes every day.
What is a good typing speed?
Around 40 WPM is average. 60–70 WPM is good for office work, and professional typists often exceed 80 WPM with over 95% accuracy.
