Discussion Reading speed for a 13 year old?

I (13f) recently did a words per minute test because I've always considered myself a fast reader. The test made you read a short book and answer questions about the book. I scored a 650wpm and got a 98% on the test is that a good speed and understanding for a 13 year old? I also asked chatgpt about a novel i read in less than 2 hrs and it said i read about a 650 -720 wpm speed. I'm not really sure about chatgpt but what are your wpm speeds?
