3 mistakes, 67 wpm. Good enough for me. I really only type with 4 fingers total though, two hands. I type odd.

First time it said I made a mistake near the end but I couldn't find it to save the life of me. I think I spelled "honored" "honoured", which of course is the Canadian spelling. Second attempt I got 66.95 with 3 mistakes. Third attempt I got 68.26 with 3 mistakes again.

I'm a messy typist. And I've never taken a course, so I don't do too badly.

I did get up to 120 though.

Averaging around 90-95 wpm with about 2-6 mistakes. That's strictly beacuse I can't spell properly in the first place.

I got 96 wmp with 1 mistake. I type way faster when it's just off the top of my head and seem to make less mistakes too.

First try was 104 wpm with 0 mistakes. I'll have to keep trying to better that.

Edit: Hmmm, three times in a row, and all three times I get 104 with 0 mistakes.

Edit: 108.9, 1 mistake. I don't think I'll ever catch any of the quick guys here. Over 130? Geez.

138 wpm. 2 mistakes.

A lot has to do with the keyboard you are on. If you are a strong keyboarder that can be a huge difference because of the responsiveness of the keys. Mine is great except for the fact I'm missing both the "I" and "W" keys which means I just have that little button to hit.

My suggestion. Don't surf porn in one window and try and do a typing test in another at the same time. It will be easier on your wrist.

Around 125 wpm with 0 mistakes.

I think it's a bit high because these passages are really easy. Other sites have some seriously hard words, as well as lots of symbols and numbers.

My browser crashed when I was done the test, so I don't know my score. I must have been typing too fast.
