Typing Test for Students
Academic passages covering science, history, literature, and more — practice typing while reinforcing what you learn in class.
Why Students Should Practice Typing
Typing speed directly affects academic performance. Students who type faster can keep up with lecture notes, write essays more efficiently, and spend less mental energy on the mechanics of writing — leaving more focus for the actual ideas.
Recommended speed goals for students
- Middle school: aim for 30–45 WPM
- High school: aim for 45–60 WPM
- College: 60+ WPM makes note-taking much easier
