8. I'm embarrassed.
I could only hit 40 wpm with 90% accuracy. I need more practice.

16. I'm out of practice
66 WPM with 6 errors.

My mom, who spent 30 years as a legal secretary had a 100 WPM typing speed with 100% accuracy. It was amazing to watch her type, her fingers moved so fast, they would blur.

20. I felt slow - -
but it was still 84 (gross) with 3 errors for a net of 81.

That's the first time I've "typed for speed" in YEARS! (I used to type over 100 wpm - and that was on an IBM Selectric! It must run in the family, though; my aunt used to take dictation on an old Royal manual typewriter! I have NO idea how she did that.)

27. I can type as fast as I can think, which isn't fast.
I don't want to find out how fast it's not.

28. i love that you posted this!
I just discovered this last week, when I was applying for a position and they required 70-80wpm. I took the test and surprised myself with 82wpm and 100%accuracy! I had no idea. Of course, I make liberal use of the backspace key.
