An assessment is more than a speed number; you want to know what level your typing actually sits at.
This assessment runs a one-minute timed test and turns your WPM and accuracy into a clear performance band, so you can see your level rather than just a figure.

Good to know
The band combines speed and accuracy: a fast run with many mistakes is graded lower than a steady, accurate one. WPM uses the five-character word, and the assessment runs entirely in your browser.
Frequently asked questions
What levels can I get?
Bands range from beginner through intermediate, proficient and advanced up to professional, based on your WPM and accuracy.
Does accuracy affect my band?
Yes. Low accuracy holds your band back, because an assessment rewards reliable typing, not just speed.
How long is the assessment?
One minute by default, which is long enough for a stable, fair reading of your level.
