How fast can you type
 
The title says it all. How fast can you write on a PC.

Very Slow, Slow, Medium, Fast, very fast, FASTEST.

Well, I write very fast not the fastest. But my speed reduces to fast if I'm feeling cold. I wrote all of this in 25 seconds.

Very fast. Can do fastest but make mistakes.

Legobricks November 9th, 2008 7:59 AM

I can copy text on an A4 paper sheet onto a text program in three minutes or so, and while only looking at the paper.

Excellent typing (on your scale perhaps just "fast" given that most computer regulars type relatively speedily anyway); terrible handwriting.

Very fast, used to be lots slower.....

Rockéttes November 9th, 2008 8:07 AM

Everyone's ideas of "Very fast" are probably different, so we'd need something to compare to. Anyway, I suppose I'm alright at typing. I'm not super slow, but I'm not extremely fast, either. I get my work done, which is good enough for me.

And... shouldn't this be in Other Voting Polls? I mean, it doesn't really have anything to do with technology directly, so... :x

I'm slower then a grandmother. D: I was faster when I was younger and didn't make as many typo's.

bgt November 9th, 2008 8:26 AM

Without errors? Probably 50 WPM. I've really dropped off a lot.

Spinor November 9th, 2008 2:40 PM

The appropriate word for typing speed on a qwerty keyboard is called GWAM.

My good spelling GWAM is about 45, which is kinda above average, my average GWAM is usually about 50-60, Although I have reached speeds of about 70 GWAM, and that's VERY FAST.

Memory November 9th, 2008 2:44 PM

Well...
On typingtest.com, my highest was like 106 WPM and my lowest was 102. |D

Pokemaster1993 November 9th, 2008 2:56 PM

~50-60 wpm. that was back in 7th grade, dunno if I can type faster

Alex November 9th, 2008 3:32 PM

I type quite fast. If I type faster than this, I'll get a lot of typos, which I'd rather not have to go press backspace ten thousand times to fix them. So if I gtyped that fast well this si what it would tlook liek and i dont like that cuase me it maek sme look like a noob so no thanks. Except I type noob with my friends so much that I've gotten just as good as typing in noob as typing normally. XD; pretty sad, I know.

But yeah, I type fast, and I never look at the keyboard. I don't even have to look at thee screen either. :>

I write so fast, that I sometimes have to stop in order to catch up with my thoughts. XDD

It really goes down to what I'm typing, and how interested I am in it. For example, right now I am just typing at an average pace because I am thinking about what I am typing as I type. However, if I am copying something from a piece of paper, I type like the wind! XDD

Same goes for many of my fanfictions. Once I have an idea in my mind, I can type out entire chapters in like thirty minutes.

prolific_rhapsody November 9th, 2008 3:41 PM

Pretty fast. Very fast, on your scale, I suppose? I have issues with taking typing tests because I get all anxious and screw the whole thing up, but I guess that's my fault. I just typed this in about twenty seconds.

Mr. Epic November 9th, 2008 3:43 PM

From a young age when I started typing it took some time to learn where the keys are and get faster and so I got quite fast but for some reason I dropped down to sort of your medium I guess :S

True Reign November 9th, 2008 3:52 PM

I'm pretty fast compared to others my age.

I typed my three page essay in less than five minutes at the library before school... I guess that's pretty good right?

Gerri Shin November 9th, 2008 4:13 PM

I'm only a fast typer when compared to a 5th grader.

Yuoaman November 9th, 2008 4:24 PM

I type anywhere from 50 WPM to 80 WPM, but have to stay at about 60 to avoid errors...

Belinda November 9th, 2008 4:32 PM

I am very fast at typing,been fast since this year. o:

Navarr November 9th, 2008 6:27 PM

Up to 107 WPM according to some tests.

Aegis November 10th, 2008 4:24 PM

When I last tested (which was in the 6th grade, mind you, so several years ago) I got around 95 WPM. Of course, that's with the occasional error in them. If I typed slow enough to make sure I didn't have any errors, it'd probably be like... 75 WPM or so.

Bluewarwolf November 10th, 2008 4:28 PM

I type around 110 WPM, depending on my mood. I can sometimes reach 115.

Michii November 10th, 2008 4:39 PM

Somewhere in the sixty to seventy-five word per minute range. I took several typing tests for this, and the results are the following:

Net Speed: 66 WPM
(words/minute)Accuracy:98%Gross Speed: 67 WPM
(words/minute)
Net Speed: 68 WPM
(words/minute)Accuracy:99%Gross Speed: 69 WPM
(words/minute)
And one more that didn't have a c/p which was 71 wpm.

.:Kanto:. November 10th, 2008 5:06 PM

I did a test and I got 82 WPM... I have no idea how someone could get over 100 though..

dumbpikAchu November 10th, 2008 5:10 PM

The title says it all. How fast can you write on a PC.

Very slow, slow, medium, fast, very fast, FASTEST

Well, I can write pretty fast, but not the fastest.
Mind you, I did that in 20 seconds SOOOOOOOOOOOO FASTEST :D

Gummy November 10th, 2008 6:58 PM

Ever since I started joining forums I noticed that my typing speed has greatly improved. I don't know how much words I can type in a minute, but I can type fairly quickly. At the moment I'm trying to teach myself to type without looking at the keyboard.
