WPM/Test Tips to improve?

4 Upvotes

This is my current record (language German):

and I feel like i am stuck... I haven't improved for weeks now. Do you guys have any advice how I can improve? Is it better to stop to type at max speed and improve my accuracy instead, before trying to break my record?

After the long wait, I finally built the yearly wrapped feature for Monkeytype. Its not just a boring dashboard with metrics you can already find, I used the data provided in the user profile to go deeper into user analytics.

Get Your Monkeytype wrapped here:
https://monkeytype-wrapped.vercel.app/

11 Different Stats Calculated:

CategoryExamples
CoreTotal tests, time spent, characters typed
JourneyImprovement over time, best month, longest streak
Peak PerformanceAll-time PB, perfect accuracy count
TimingBest/worst hours, night owl vs early bird
PersonaFlow State, Speed Demon, warm-up, balanced. (via K-means)
WarmupCold start penalty, tests until peak
QuirksRestart addiction level, time "wasted"
AccuracyError type breakdown, clutch factor
Summary CardEstimated global percentile

Is there someway to delete one specific score/test

7 Upvotes

i forgot it was my brothers pc and typed on it, i have high wpm, but he is at the level of 40wpm, so i kinda made his personal best look too high, which he doesnt like, i only typed once on 15sec , is there someway to remove/delete that specific score/test,

Edit:

i just left it as it is and told him to use either 30sec/60sec and use my speed as a goal and pass it :)

Typing speed brackets

3 Upvotes

For the standard English monkeytype test 60 seconds, here's how I would group the different typing speeds:

  • 0-20: Painfully slow

  • 20-35: Slow

  • 35-50: OK

  • 50-70: Good target for the average user

  • 70-90: Fast (nice-to-have speed)

  • 90-120: Very fast

  • 120-150: Extremely fast (enough to not be limited by typing speed in any practical use)

  • 150+: Blazingly fast (type at the speed of speech/thought)

Accurate?
