When you take a typing test, just relax, take your time and have confidence in yourself.

I know what you mean. I took a test and the words were in -5pt type so I could barely see them. I got something like a 40. I usually get at least a 62. All I can say is what others say: go slow. Don't pay attention to what it is saying, pay attention to each letter and make sure you get those commas and other punctuation in correctly (that's where I mess up, I just don't see the "" marks and keep going as if they're not there. Weird. But, seriously, believe in yourself and just do the best you can. That's all we can ask of ourselves.

Good Luck!

I can completely relate to this. It increases my stress level to type these paragraphs. I ALWAYS do the sudden death, or whatever it is called, such that if you make one mistake it's over. I'm primarily concerned with increasing my accuracy over increasing my speed.

I only type about 50 WPM, but I want that to be 100% accurate. I was talking with my wife today, and she said that you don't have to be accurate because today, computers either make corrections for you or let you know when you have made a mistake.

I want to type fast without making ANY mistakes.
