personally i'm around 90-105.
Maintaining your typing speed over a long period of time is a true measure of your typing speed (WPM).

The world record of 150 was typing at 150 w/o mistakes. I can type at around 150 but only have about 50% accuracy.

I don't recall ever saying that. You have to be a certain age in most places, and 13 is too young, where I live. Then again, I do live near the third largest city in the country, and maybe that's why.

when i was 15, i recorded @ 120 with no errors i been pratiscing, using typing programs for years, since i was like 7-8
that 13yo who types fast, is possible. gg

yes i agree with you, but that's not the point. you said you doubt certain peoples typings speeds were 120+, but since they only took the typing test that measures speed for a few minutes rather than an hour, i just mentioned that these speeds are not impossible given the length of the test. the fact that they could not maintain this speed for a long period of time is irrelevant, as nobody is taking the test for 50 minutes. since nobody in this thread has or will take a 50 minute test, their speeds being 120+ within the context of this thread is not impossible.

hovz has about 5% accuracy

Yeah what about accuracy, post your accuracy too!
|
47 wpm 1st time, 50 wpm the second. 88% accuracy... hard to scribe when youre still prone to looking at the keyboard. :\
EDIT: Btw, i think many of you are full of shit. My mom is a full time secretary and its amazing to watch her type. She averaged 75-85 over 3 times. I simply cannot conceed that you guys are 100+ with less typing practice than someone who does it for a living.

I was looking for a once sentence type thing this is as close as i found and i know this has to be wrong :D
Test duration: 0.07 minute Uncorrected words per minute score: 399 words per minute Uncorrected characters per minute score: 1995 characters per minute Percentage accuracy: 89% Net corrected words per minute score: 354 words per minute

ok after some experiemnting that test is completely fucked up regardless of what you do it always says 0.07
|
|
65 WPM with 96% accuracy o.O
|
100 - 150 flawless WPM since I was like 14, too bad it's a useless skill because most jobs consider me just as qualified as any person with 35+ WPM!
They need to throw out 4 of those 35 WPM losers and replace them with me, the typist powerhouse
