The hardest gap was a family called Oren, who appear in the first chapter with four children and in the last chapter with three. Ira sat with that for two nights. In the end she wrote what the surrounding pages supported, and no more than that.

Notes on this level
What this level is training
This level does not introduce a new key. It drills the left index, right pinky, right index, left middle, right thumb, left pinky, left ring, right middle, right ring fingers on keys you have already met, at a target of 43 words per minute and 95.3% accuracy.
Speed at this stage comes from removing hesitation rather than from moving faster. If your accuracy is above the target but your speed is not, the gap is almost always time spent deciding, not time spent pressing.
