Take Your (Different) Test HereSo I checked out "typing test" using an advanced search and found that they're not very popular among the forum users here. The
first leaderboard was last active two years ago, so I thought I'd reboot it.
The Rules-Customize your test so that you type in your
preferred language.
-You
must provide a screenshot of your
test result, the
title of the document as well as the
test itself.
-You must provide the
keyboard you used, and the
switches you typed with.
-If you chose to type in a language other than English, please provide that information as well.
-Failure to meet all of these requirements will result in the removal of your score from the leaderboard (refer to the sample below).
Optional-You may list other filters you used such as touch-typing, two-finger style, keycaps (ABS, PBT, etc.) or another key layout like Dvorak.
I recommend using
Snipping Tool for a quick and easy screenshot. It already comes with Windows Vista, 7 and 8, but you can download it
here.
I will list the ranks in this post and do my best to keep it up-to-date.
