FAQs
What is a good typing speed?
Around 40 WPM is average, 60+ WPM is good, and 80+ WPM is excellent. This practice test is for guidance only, not a certified measurement.
How is WPM calculated?
One “word” counts as five characters, including spaces. Your character count is divided by five and then by the minutes taken.
Is my typing sent anywhere?
No. Everything runs locally in your browser.
