A five minute typing test measures both speed and stamina. Over five minutes your pace settles into a true average and small slips even out, which is why longer tests are used for job screening. Type the passage and get your score at the end.

Five minutes is a long haul — accuracy matters as much as speed. Drop to 1, 2, or 3 minutes below if you want a faster check.

How it is scored: WPM is your correct characters divided by five (the standard word length), over the minutes you spent typing — so accuracy is baked into the number. Typos count against both your accuracy percentage and your speed. Everything runs in your browser; nothing is uploaded and there is no account to create.
