One of those tests is really crazy if I'm not mistaken; it has some crazymad long words.

Last year in computer class I averaged in the 120s with my max at 137. I doubt I'm that high anymore though, because I spend a lot less time on the computer than I used to.

How is that worthless? Don't you correct in real life? I'd say the ones that don't let you correct are worthless as they don't reflect how fast you could type in the workplace (where you would be making corrections).
