How Typing Speed Is Measured

Words per minute (WPM) is calculated by dividing the number of characters typed correctly by five, then dividing by the time in minutes. This standard formula accounts for average word length. Accuracy is the percentage of correctly typed characters out of total characters typed.

Regular speed testing helps track improvement and identify areas for practice. Try to maintain accuracy above 90 percent while gradually increasing your speed.
