All those that type more than 80wpm corrected chime in!

[episodic]

83wpm here

Took me quite a while to get past 60 something - but I've been practicing for quite a while. . .

 

[neonerd]

I'm only at 76-78 I think...When I'm mad, it's a lot faster; around 85-87

 

[xSkyDrAx]

Not that hard.

 

[arcenite]

depending on the day, i'm anywhere between 80-100

 

[ElFenix]

I always around 80 - 100 wpm, but sometimes things get slow because thinking takes slightly longer than typing. And no I'm not retarded.

 

[ElFenix]

ugh i type slow!

of course, having to add in capitalization screws me up.

 

[neonerd]

You also type faster if you're typing your own thoughts, since you already know what you want to type and don't need to read it first. It's like a quick cd copy (without copying files onto your hard drive first)

I'm above 100 wpm. Seven years of piano lessons, finally come through in the clutch.

Who's beating up who NOW on the playground, huh punks?

Meh, mine is just under 70. I make too many mistakes.

Edit: Just tried again and got 75, w00t. (I guess it depends on how much I'm concentrating on it...)

 

[BullyCanadian]

44 wpm I thought i was faster

 

[tfinch2]

I'm right around 85 if I concentrate on all the tests posted here. Not bad not bad.

I'm above 100 wpm with my old qwerty keyboad, but I am in the process of learning dvorak on a non-mechanical keyboard. After 2 days of light use, I am getting 18 wpm with it.

While we are on the subject, can anyone recommend a good touch typing tutor program to help my transition? Thanks.

 

[Descartes]

I can type as fast as 158wpm on a Qwerty, but when typing casually it's about ~125wpm.

 

[melchoir]

I got 109/114 on typingtest.com.

 

[kranky]

About 80wpm on this $5 POS keyboard I have at home, but closer to 95 at work with the Microsoft Natural Keyboard.

Wow, 11 years of intense piano lessons and I'm still getting my ass thrown around on the playground. What's the secret??

 

[aplefka]

I'm almost always in the 90-110 range, whether I'm transcribing or forming the sentences myself.

Does this make you 4x as 1337 or what? Just have the mods take away 3000 posts.

 

[Kelemvor]

77 on typingtest.com just now. I'm much faster typing from my mind than yping something Im' reading.

 

[ts3433]

I get about 75 WPM diving right into those texts on typingtest.com et al. without really reading them beforehand. Only 4 years of piano lessons so far for me, and since I'm in high school I still hand-write most things.

 

[Kelvrick]

100 exactly. Tested 2 months ago.

 

[silverpig]

Mid to low 70s. Not bad.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Anywhere from fifty to seventy-five depending on the amount of capitalization required.
