this is for READING WPM ;DOriginally posted by Minnesota
Here is how you can find out your WPM, I pulled this off of: http://www.turboread.com/wpm_faqs.htm
1. Count the number of words on three consecutive full lines of print. (For example, 33 words on three lines)
2. Divide this by 3 to give average words per line. (For example, 11 words per line)
3. Count the number of lines of print down the left hand side of the page. (For example, 40 lines of print)
4. Multiply the number of lines of print by the average words per line. (For example, 40 x 11 = 440 words per page)
5. Count the number of pages read in a known time period (For example, 6 pages)
6. Multiple the number of pages read by the words per page. The result is total words read. (For example 6 x 440 = 2640 words)
7. Divide the total words read by the time it took you to read them. (For example, 2640 ÷ 10 minutes = 264 words per minute)
8. The result is words per minute!
I dunno if thats handy or not... if you really think your WPM rate is a life-and-death difference.. then go for it. Heh.

Apparently that site is either down or died. But I use to use that to test how fast I typed.
On da record, actually trying, not cheating(as in just press letters and numbers very fast
[Eg: asl;dfniaseofdknasjgfnweioastfnweso])
I got to 120 words per minute.
I thought that was slow cosidering its two words per second, but after all of my other friends tried it, they got like 50.
But usually I don't type that fast because, it takes too much energy and its not nesessary.
Does that explain a lot?Apparently that site is either down or died.
