    Well, I'm with haej. I think that's the limit of my ability, though

When I look at something that needs to be typed, (The typing book that stands upright) I don't do well at all. I wish I could be timed while typing what I want.

    I'm not about to take this test.:nono
    I remember many years ago I ran the mailroom for an insurance company. They gave all the girls (yes, that's the way it was back then) a typing test. They discovered that only 8% were efficient typists and the other 92% were hunt and peckers.

    The last typing test I took (about 2 years ago) I scored an 85.

    I would be able to take this test if the words remained stationary for a timed period. When they move across the screen afte rthe 4th level, my reader can't see it.

    Just took a typing test. My results were that I type at an average of 47wpm, and once the accuracy counts in I type at around 40wpm. I guess that's not bad, considering I only recently learned to type on the home row.

    Got 91 & 91, guess that's it for this game and I am not complaining . I took another test somewhere on net where you had to type a longer text down, not just words, I scored max 45 wpm.
    ps. This is just my opinion in the matter.

    No, I downloaded a program. It doesn't have anything with moving text, you only need to type out text that's displayed.
