01

Add your complete text

Paste the paragraph and check its live word and character count before starting.

02

Set your time limit

Choose a preset duration or enter a custom time from 1 to 60 minutes.

03

Get the same result

Your custom test uses the same net WPM, accuracy, mistake and character calculations.

Take a 10-minute WPM practice test.

Choose 30, 35, 40, 45 or 50 WPM as your personal practice target. The selected goal changes the required standard-word count.

30

Build control first

A 30 WPM goal equals 300 standard words in ten minutes.

40

Improve steady speed

A 40 WPM goal equals 400 standard words in ten minutes.

50

Practice longer focus

A 50 WPM goal equals 500 standard words in ten minutes.

These are practice targets, not a universal pass rule. Always check the latest notice for the exact speed, error and keyboard conditions that apply to your examination.

Understand how your typing score is calculated.

One standard word equals five typed characters. The test uses matching characters for net WPM so incorrect typing does not improve your final speed.

1

Net WPM

Correct characters ÷ 5 ÷ elapsed minutes.

2

Accuracy

Correct typed characters ÷ all typed characters × 100.

3

Mistakes

Every typed character that does not match the source is counted.
