Overview

The Typing Speed Test measures your characters per minute (CPM), words per minute (WPM), and accuracy as you type displayed sentences. It supports both Korean and English text, and is useful for certification exam prep and improving work efficiency.

Formula

CPM (Characters Per Minute) = Total Characters Typed ÷ Time (minutes). WPM (Words Per Minute) = Total Words Typed ÷ Time (minutes). Accuracy (%) = (Correct Characters / Total Characters) × 100.

How to Use

  1. 1Click the start button to begin the test.
  2. 2Type the sentences displayed on the screen as accurately as possible.
  3. 3After completion, your CPM, WPM, and accuracy are shown.
  4. 4Repeat multiple times to track your average speed.

Tips

  • For Korean typing, 300+ CPM is generally sufficient for office work.
  • For English, 40 WPM is average; 80+ WPM is considered fast.
  • If accuracy is low, focus on precision before increasing speed.
  • Learning proper finger placement (home row position) improves long-term speed.
  • Use this tool to prepare for word-processing certification exams.

FAQ

Q. What is the difference between CPM and WPM?

CPM counts characters typed per minute; WPM counts words per minute. Korean typically uses CPM, while English uses WPM. For English, WPM ≈ CPM ÷ 5 (assuming an average word length of 5 characters).

Q. What is a normal typing speed?

The average for Korean is about 200–300 CPM for general users and 350–500 CPM for office workers. For English, the average is about 40 WPM, while professional typists reach 80–120 WPM.

Q. How can I improve my typing speed?

Start by learning proper finger placement, then practice consistently for 10–20 minutes daily. Focus on accuracy first and gradually increase speed. Typing practice software can be very helpful.
