keyboard skills with our free online typing tests.

How did you do?

How many words per minute did you manage? Typical typing rates are around 33 words per minute. Many jobs, however, require keyboard speeds of 60-70 words per minute and the very fastest typists can enter well over 150 words per minute. Two-finger typists can copy from one form to another at about 27 words per minute!

Characters per second is a more accurate measure than words per minute, since word lengths can vary. A rough conversion assumes an average of six characters per word so that an expert types at around 15 characters per second.
