2-Minute Typing Test

Two minutes starts to show decay. If your accuracy drops in the second minute, that is real information about how you type under sustained load, and it is invisible in a shorter test.

What a 2 minutes test does and does not tell you

It is still short of the length used for most formal assessments, which usually run three to five minutes.

  • Compare your first and second minute. A large gap means you are typing above your sustainable pace.
  • Useful preparation for data-entry and clerical tests, which rarely stop at a minute.

Other test lengths

Once you know your speed, the useful next step is finding out which keys are costing you time.

A timed result is only useful if something changes afterwards.
