Well, you can think of it in terms of corrected WPM, where if you are 98% accurate, you're spending (at least) 2% of your time correcting your mistakes. So it's possible to get up to (at least) 68wpm.

Of course I'm assuming that you're the kind that fixes your mistakes mid test. So more accuracy does mean more speed. But it's also the same as the regard as more practice means more speed anyway.

67wpm is actually quite fast. I think this is a good read: http://smallbusines…

I have reached 105wpm on this website before. And that's with correcting mistakes as they appear. I feel that practicing for speed and practicing for accuracy are one and the same. Since you can't type fast if you can't type accurately, that's what I think. I went for speed, and my accuracy is still around 98%, I should probably improve on that as well.

I would love to reach 67 wpm. The highest score I've ever had anywhere is 54 I think.

vf, I read the link you provided. Interesting, thank you! I want to get both my accuracy up and my WPM up to about 70 to 80, at least. I've always taken my several bosses dictation while they stood behind me and I typed and then I'd fix what they said - I never got it all right unless they were thinking slowly and talking even slower :)

Imagine that person who peaked at 212 WPM - whoa, cool! I'd love to do that...!

derig~~

Yeah 212WPM is a very good competition speed. The only thing is, much over 100wpm isn't particularly useful these days.

Unless if you want to be a stenographer, at which point you're learning the wrong keyboard.
I only keep practicing because I'm scared that I'll get rusty.
