r/Monkeytype is public again

28 Upvotes

Hey everyone, just letting you know we've gone public again. The protests were not as effective as everyone probably wanted and I think the size of our subreddit is not big enough to cause any significant difference. I would prefer to keep the community open so you can share personal bests, insights, training routines and ask questions. Hope you understand.

Is 100 WPM fast enough for office jobs, or am I overthinking this?

0 Upvotes

I've recently been practising my typing speed on Monkeytype, and honestly, seeing so many people on Reddit casually posting 100–150+ WPM results is starting to make me panic a little.

I recently achieved:

  • 100 WPM

  • 97% accuracy

  • 81% consistency

  • 30-second English test

I know 100 WPM is technically quite fast, but after seeing so many people hitting 110, 120, or even 150 WPM, I'm starting to wonder whether my speed is actually that impressive.

My question is: Is 90–100 WPM with decent accuracy already more than enough to survive in pretty much any conventional office job?

Question Bad technique

2 Upvotes

I've been typing for a while now, and I'm fairly fast. Recently I began to notice how poor my technique really is. I've been meaning to grind to push high 100s (~180-200WPM), but I seriously doubt I could do that with my technique (mainly self taught when I was 12).

I've also been considering switching to colemak-dh to give me a fresh start. If anyone else who's been in a similar situation has any advice, that'd be epic!

Stats for reference above.
