<< < (7/20) > >>

NaRu:

English
You type 274 characters per minute
You have 41 correct words and
you have 5 wrong words

Dutch
You type 301 characters per minute
You have 39 correct words and
you have 4 wrong words


Meh, not too bad I guess... considering I'm using a pain in the a$$ laptop keyboard. And usually I type way slower, about 16 WPM. So I guess it doesn't matter that I'm a slow typer ;)

Ow yeah, the 16 WPM is for reports and essay's (time for making graphs, pictures, layout, etc. included).

I agree with what others said. A) I correct my typing to much during the test. B) I seem to have trouble hitting space bar earlier. and C) these words aren't flowing. There's no logic behind them. It's hard to type stuff out when they're just random. It's easier to remember a sentence and flow through it then to remember a set of random words.
