About the 5-Minute Typing Test
Our 5-minute typing test is designed for professional typing assessment and practice. This extended duration test evaluates not only your typing speed and accuracy but also your stamina and ability to maintain focus over a longer period—skills essential for professional typists, data entry specialists, transcriptionists, and other roles that require extensive keyboard work.
Professional Assessment:

- Includes longer, more complex passages that reflect real-world typing scenarios
- Measures WPM (words per minute), accuracy, and total character count

- Identifies areas for improvement in both speed and accuracy
