ABOUT THIS TEST

MEASURE WITH
CONTEXT.

Start with one minute for a quick check. Choose a longer session when you want to see how your pace and accuracy hold up.

Correct WPM counts the characters that match the passage, divided by five and by the time in minutes. Raw WPM counts every character you typed. Accuracy compares correct character keypresses with all character keypresses.
