Wow I feel inferior now... (well slower.) I mean I used to think I was a fast typer (considering sometimes I don't need to look at the keyboard to type what I saying and geting the word right) until I saw other people results-

266 characters per minute
45 correct words
4 wrong words
45 words per minute

EDIT- I was able to get 50 words pers minute but now I just trying too hard (and not being natural with it).

This fast.

Non-dumb answer: Pretty slow. About 30 WPM. I can type pretty fast, but I mistype a lot and have to correct all the time.

57 words per minute. First few times I managed to get 0 words per minute. I had caps lock on after playing Dungeon Defender... I kept getting pissed at the test for ignoring my correctly spelled words. Then I started to wonder if I might be dyslectic. It was just after that I realized I typed in all caps.

353 characters and 63 Words per minute in my native language and
372 characters and 72 Words per minute in standard English.
Seems my language has "bigger words" and I'm generally a little faster in English...

205 but in my defense, my cat tried to hijack the computer mid test.

Hmm, I believe that there's subliminal messaging going on here...

When I know what I'm typing (as in now) I'm very fast, but give me random words (like in the test) and my word-rate drops dramatically.

First try I had 56 correct words, with 8 incorrect spelling.

186 characters per minute, but I got every word right.

I honestly could type faster, but I hate making mistakes.

284 characters. My keyboard is so small I physically can't use my whole hands since I have fucking huge hands, even for someone who's 188 cm tall.

eurgh I hate when the US flag is used as the symbol of the English language :(

1st time:
You type 351 characters per minute
You have 59 correct words and
you have 1 wrong words

2nd time:
You type 343 characters per minute
You have 53 correct words and
you have 1 wrong words

My main problem is with hitting the space bar after each word. I'm sure I'd be much faster if I could get that properly into my flow

I feel like this site gives a more accurate depiction. The words on your test are too easy to type. It's different when you have to type actual sentences.
I got a 29. Then I tried it again with a different topic and I got 46.

I consider that good, considering I used to be really slow, and I used to only type with one finger.

56 words and 2 errors. Seeing as I can't type while looking at the screen and English being my second language, I guess it's an OK speed. That's out of 3 tries though, first two were 49 and 48.
