Why Type the Bible

Most typing tests feed you random words. FreeWPMType feeds you Scripture: Psalms, Proverbs, the Gospels, the letters. Your fingers learn the keyboard while your heart keeps the verse. Many typists finish a test having memorized a verse without trying. Fifty beloved passages, in the King James Version, are waiting in the verse bank, served in random order so no two tests are alike.

Typing Test Questions

Everything you might ask before your first test.

What is a typing test?

A typing test is a short timed exercise where you copy a passage of text as fast and as accurately as you can. When the timer ends you get a score that shows your speed and accuracy. On FreeWPMType every passage is a Bible verse.

How is typing speed measured?

Typing speed is measured in words per minute, written WPM. The test counts every correct character you typed, divides by five to estimate words, then divides by the minutes you spent typing. Five characters is the agreed standard for one word, spaces included.

What does WPM mean?

WPM stands for words per minute. It is the standard unit for typing speed around the world. Because one word is counted as five characters, the number stays fair whether the text is short or long.

What is a good WPM score?

Most people type between 30 and 40 WPM. A score above 60 is strong, above 80 is excellent, and professional typists often pass 100. Accuracy matters as much as speed, so a clean 45 beats a messy 70.

How is accuracy calculated?

Accuracy is the share of your keystrokes that match the text. If you type 200 characters and 190 are correct, your accuracy is 95 percent. FreeWPMType shows your accuracy live while you type.

How long should a typing test be?

One minute is the standard and the best place to start. Longer tests of 3, 5, or 10 minutes give a steadier measure of your true speed, since short bursts can flatter you. Pick a length that matches your goal: quick check, daily practice, or endurance.

How can I improve my typing speed?

Practice a little every day, keep your eyes on the text instead of your hands, and slow down until your accuracy sits above 95 percent. Speed grows on top of accuracy, not instead of it. Typing Scripture daily gives your fingers the workout and your heart the verse.

Is the typing test free?

Yes. Every test on FreeWPMType is free, with no account and no sign up. Your best scores, streaks, and badges are saved in your own browser.
