Free Typing Speed Test
Take a timed typing test and review words per minute, characters per minute, accuracy and error details using clearly explained formulas.
Measure typing speed and accuracy
Choose a test duration and passage, then type the displayed text. Compare tests with similar lengths and settings.
How results are calculated
One standard word equals five characters, including spaces and punctuation. Net WPM is correct characters ÷ 5 ÷ elapsed minutes. Raw WPM uses all typed characters. Accuracy is correct characters ÷ total typed characters × 100.
Practice tips
Start with short, accurate sessions. Keep a comfortable posture and practise recurring mistakes. Speed varies with passage difficulty and test duration.
Do corrections affect the result?
Correcting a mistake changes the current text, but the time spent correcting still counts. Compare results under the same test settings.
