What is WPM?
WPM (Words Per Minute) is the standard way to measure typing speed, where each "word" stands for 5 characters. A typical adult lands around 40 WPM. Professional typists hit anywhere from 80 to 100 WPM.
Accuracy tells you what percentage of the characters you got right. Mistakes show up highlighted in red and need fixing before you move on.

How fast do you type?
Typing fast without errors weighs a lot in study and at work, and the only way to get better at it is by measuring. The test times your typing and returns your speed in words per minute (WPM) and characters per minute (CPM).
But speed isn't everything, so it also looks at accuracy and shows how many errors you made along the way, because racing and slipping up gets you nowhere. It's a solid gauge of your current pace, and repeating the test now and then turns into a fun way to track your progress.
