How Typres counts your speed
Every score comes from the same few numbers, so you can compare tests fairly.
WPM = (correct characters ÷ 5) ÷ minutes- WPM
- Characters from correctly typed words, spaces included, divided by five and by the minutes you typed. A word with a mistake does not add to it.
- Raw WPM
- Every key you pressed, mistakes included, on the same five-character basis. The gap between raw and WPM shows what mistakes cost you.
- Accuracy
- The share of keystrokes that were right the first time. Fixing a mistake with backspace does not remove it from this number.
- Consistency
- How even your pace was from second to second. 100% means you held the same speed the whole way.
Where each finger goes
Every key belongs to one finger. Tap a finger below to light up its keys. Both thumbs share the space bar.
Left hand
Right hand
Start with your fingers on the home row: A S D F on the left and J K L ; on the right. The small bars on F and J are the bumps you can feel with your index fingers, so you can find the home row without looking.
What a score means
| WPM | Level | Feels like |
|---|---|---|
| Under 25 | Getting started | Still finding the keys |
| 25 to 39 | Building | Looking down less |
| 40 to 54 | Everyday | Comfortable for email and chat |
| 55 to 74 | Strong | Faster than most office work needs |
| 75 to 99 | Fast | Touch typing with a steady rhythm |
| 100+ | Elite | Competition range |
These bands are a general guide. Harder text, punctuation and numbers all lower your WPM.
Get faster
- Accuracy first
- Slow down until you finish a test above 95%. Speed follows once mistakes stop interrupting you.
- Eyes on the text
- Look at the words, not the keys. Find the bumps on F and J and let your fingers return to them.
- Short and often
- Ten minutes a day beats one long session a week. Mix 30 second and 2 minute tests.
Questions
What is a typing test?
It measures how quickly and accurately you type a passage. Typres shows your words per minute, your accuracy and how steady your pace was.
What does WPM mean?
Words per minute. One word is counted as five characters, so long and short words are treated the same way.
What is a good WPM score?
Around 40 WPM is fine for everyday typing. 60 and above is strong, and 80 and above is fast for most people.
How long should I test for?
One minute gives a quick reading. Three or five minutes give a steadier number because one lucky or unlucky stretch matters less.
Why is my accuracy lower than I expected?
Accuracy counts every wrong keystroke, even the ones you corrected with backspace. Slowing down a little usually raises it quickly.
Can I learn touch typing here?
Yes. The lessons start on the home row and add one area of the keyboard at a time. Do one or two lessons a day, then check your progress with a timed test.
Do I need an account?
No. Your recent results are saved in this browser, and you can clear them any time from the scores section.
