1 Minute Typing Test

A 60-second typing test is the most common way to measure typing speed. This test opens a real one-minute timer, uses natural English words, and reports your WPM, accuracy and consistency instantly.

How the 1-Minute Test Works

• The timer starts when you type your first character.
• Type the displayed English words as fast and accurately as you can.
• The test ends automatically after 60 seconds.
• Your WPM, accuracy, consistency and difficult keys appear instantly.

What Is a Good 1-Minute Score?

The average typing speed is around 40 WPM. Reaching 60 WPM in one minute is above average, and 80+ WPM is considered fast. See the WPM chart for detailed benchmarks.

After your test, try the daily challenge, ghost race, or typing games to keep practicing.
