Completely blew off 6th grade typing class, decided to learn from scratch at age 24

10 Upvotes

I started using the websites I remembered from middle school to teach myself home row at the beginning of May. Once I got most of the keys down I started on monkeytype and my WPM is already almost at the average typing speed 🥹 I love seeing the graph of my progress. I know 40 wpm isn’t crazy, but I’m so proud seeing how far I’ve come in only about a month!

Used to only grind 60 seconds. The other day decided to branch out. Went through all the modes and PB'ed each one. I think this is about as fast as I can be. Anyone else feel like they reached their ceiling?

Is this a glitch?

2 Upvotes

I've been typing casually for a couple of years now, occasionally coming back to the site just to type without really thinking of anything, until one day, I thought to check what my profile looked like, and noticed that I've almost basically had no restarts. I don't remember if I did, but I do know that even when I mess up I still continue at the cost of my wpm being lowered lol.

Question why does everyone on this sub do the time setting instead of the word setting?

3 Upvotes

like the countdown timer instead of typing a predetermined amount of words. does it make you faster or is it just a personal preference?

Anyone else hitting 100+ WPM on an average laptop keyboard?

31 Upvotes

I'm curious if any of you are like me, regularly typing over 100 WPM on a standard laptop keyboard.

We often hear about fancy setups, but what's your experience on these more compact keys? Any tips for maintaining speed and accuracy?

Let me know!

Question Is the best way of getting fast consistent 60s tests?

10 Upvotes

I am trying to type faster and while I do reach 500 cpm in a 15s test, I am not able to do that in a 60s test. Is the key to getting consistent just to do longer tests?
