How fast can you type?
Take the test. I did 82wpm but I could do better. I was ------- up. 
It starts whenever you put the cursor into the big box. Type the above paragraph.

Yeah the key is not to try and fix your errors. This test isnt ---- about it. Some test programs if you ---- up will take you back to the beginning of the word and you have to continue and spell it right.

Ok, I got a 41 this time. If I could remember the paragraph or if someone would read it to me I could type 300x faster, but I guess that would defeat the purpose of the test, huh?

I got 61 gross 58 net
but i cheated on the second one and did what I really would have done in real life (copied the text, pasted it in there, and then spun around in my chair for the rest of the time) and got 136 gross 136 net. Cheaters ALWAYS prosper in the real world.
