    45 WPM...I'm OK i guess. That's why I really don' post all too much (1.28 PPD), when folks put all that writing, I CAN respond, but it'll take way too long and I have better things to do.

    I tried it twice, 74 once and 71 the second time. With mistakes factored, it was in the high 60 range.

    I did a test like 2 and a half years ago and my highest was 128 wam. It was part of my business course where did this for like over a week on a program called all the right type or something. I'm pretty fast typer. I never look at the keyboard when I'm typing *insert nerd smiley here*

    My fastest sentence in school was 98 WPM, but when I am typing like on JBB, I can go 45-55 WPM.

    39 wpm / 82% accurate...not bad for somebody that doesn't type the correct way. I pretty much have to stare at the keyboard the entire time I'm typing.

    79 WPM at 92% accuracy.

    I hate to break it to you guys, but a test like this isn't really accurate since its very short. I think to be counted as a real test you would need to type for 15-20 minutes. I really don't think I can type 79 WPM for prolonged periods of time.

    I know I learned how to type from AOL back in junior high/high school as well as posting on message boards. How about all of you?

    Wow.. .I'm, by far, the worst typer here. I did it again, but I did the 3 minute test this time. I ended up at 36 wpm at 77% accuracy. My gross speed was in the 20's.
