I'm about at 70 but no backspace and having to think about quotes slows me down a lot. ~sighs~ oh well.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08750425379922238031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-12829207249323403132014-02-24T09:27:07.866-05:002014-02-24T09:27:07.866-05:00I got 70/70 - touch typist.

It also threw me that it went faster than my fingers so I wasn't quite sure which character I should have been typing. And to be honest I should be good as its my job and I've been doing it since 1976. At least the technology has improved and I don't have to use the old manual Remmingtons any more.Fran Knoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-74680334140065705812014-02-23T22:04:17.637-05:002014-02-23T22:04:17.637-05:00I got 54 wpm with 90% accuracy.

Even in the Army, when we took tests, I asked if I could turn the page over during the timed test. I was the only one who did that!

Those tests never let me backspace and retype, so I always bomb them. And this one was worse, because the instant you miss something, it makes everything after wrong - and it counts backspace as a keystroke. Gah! I tried it twice and stopped when the test got below 30% accurate. LOL, you'd never know I used to work as a secretary and now I'm a writer.B.E.
