2 Minute Typing Test

A 2-minute typing test gives you a steadier score than a quick 60-second check without turning into an endurance test. Type a random passage for two minutes and see your WPM and accuracy right away.

A steadier number than one minute

In a 1-minute test, a slow first sentence or a single stumble can move your score by several WPM. Over two minutes those moments even out, so the number you get is a fairer picture of your normal speed — useful when you're tracking your progress from week to week.

Good for regular practice

Two minutes fits easily into a short practice session. Take one test at the start to warm up and one at the end to see whether you improved, and watch your accuracy as well as your speed — aim for 95% or better.

Frequently asked questions

Is a 2-minute test better than a 1-minute test?
Not better, just steadier. One minute is fine for a quick check; two minutes gives a score that's less affected by a single mistake or a slow start.
What's a good WPM on a 2-minute test?
The same benchmarks apply: about 40 WPM is average, 60 WPM is fast and 80+ WPM is professional level. Your 2-minute score is usually close to your 1-minute score, or slightly lower.
Do I need an account?
