Btw, just to note. If your a good speller of words, You should type way faster. I usually slow down ALOT just to make sure I spell the words correctly

Yes but I spend like 2 seconds trying to backspace and retype it. Usually, when I type something wrong, I usually know about it even before I look at the screen for mistakes and backspace to fix it. Gut reaction told me to fix it and I wasted precious seconds.

EDIT - I can type faster if I am just typing stuff that is coming out of my own head...say if I was writing a paper or something...but to have to read and type what's there I'm slower.

Best I can do on the Strategic Alliances test was 118wpm. I've done 136wpm on the Oz test though. That one feels a lot more natural.
