I know! I am so slow. This really makes me look like so bad. But when I do get a good speed. You ALL are going to hear about it.

Have your heard of Nitro Type? Itā€™s a really cool racing/typing game and itā€™s really fun. I would highly recommend you try it out. It has drastically improved my average typing speed from 50-55 to 60-65, and my accuracy from 90-94% to 95-100%, as well as my top speed from 60 to 75. That may not sound like much, but thatā€™s a 10wpm average increase, a 10% accuracy increase, and a 15wpm higher top speed. Btw, itā€™s completely free to join, and Nitro Type Gold (Membership) is only ten dollars a year.

Bro good job! Keep it up! I just recently got a new to speed about a week ago. I got 77 wpm. Before it was 75 wpm. Itā€™s only a 2 wpm jump, as supposed to your 7 wpm jump, so

Literally almost every single person saying that can type over 100 WPM is lying, as the world record for 13 and under is only 109.2 WPM. There is no way any of you guys are hitting 120 WPM as a 13 year old, let alone the other inflated numbers you guys have posted here for bragging rights.

Thatā€™s what Iā€™ve been thinking! :open_mouth:
When I saw this post I was like ā€œNah, heā€™s capping.ā€
He very most likely does not actually have 120 wpm, and he probably posed it as a question just to seem more legit. I donā€™t know tho. Thatā€™s what I think. I didnā€™t want to be rude and right out say: ā€œYou donā€™t have 120wpm!ā€ because I donā€™t know that. He might. Itā€™s just extremely unlikely.

Iā€™m 11 years old and my average typing speed is 83 WPM and my top speed is 95WPM
I would love to learn how to type with all of my fingers at the moment I only type with 4 fingers and need to stop this habit.
