Make this 30-second test useful.

Thirty seconds gives you a little more time to settle into a rhythm than a short sprint. Use it for a quick practice break, and keep the settings the same when comparing attempts. Punctuation and numbers change the difficulty and are best compared separately.

Your focus for this run

Start at a pace you can sustain through the final word. Correct a mistake with Backspace and keep moving without rushing the next word.

How the score works

WPM is correct characters divided by five, divided by active minutes. Accuracy counts all attempted keystrokes, including mistakes you later correct. Switching tabs or leaving the typing area pauses the timer. Personal results stay on this device.
