top speed is 72 wpm without errors. I usually swooop along and make errors.

Ive been typing since high school, I can usually hit 80 with no errors, although there is no accounting for how well my keyboard is working or how tired I might be...lol

I can do around 60-70. But it does depend on the keyboard.

I had to take a typing test a few days ago for job placement. 101 raw words per minute with an average of 16 mistakes per minute, averaging out to 85 words per minute. I really didn't think that I was that quick.

I'm really slow at typing. That's a BIG reason I don't go into chat rooms. Tried a couple time. But by the time I went to answer someone in the room, their question was already long gone off the screen.

My cats do my typing for me, they like to jump on the keyboard actually I do pretty good on typing, just need to work on my sentence structure.
