Typing speed test

Find out how fast you type. Your result shows words per minute (WPM) and accuracy - the same measures the course uses. If you're logged in, we save your results so you can see your progress between attempts. Pick a text from the list and start typing.

How fast is “fast”? Our guide to typing faster explains the speed scale and how to improve.
