Courtney has been taking a keyboarding class at school and was so excited that she has increased her words per minute. It made me think about the time I won a hotel stay with a typing contest. I won by typing 93 wpm. I was curious to see how fast I type now (18 years after that contest). The kids helped me find a typing test online so they could see if I really type that fast. They had serious doubts that I could actually type 93 wpm.
I won't lie, I was nervous because, although I type a lot during the day, I wasn't sure I was still as fast as I used to be. I was absolutely correct, I don't type the same speed I used to....I type FASTER!!
Yup! I still got it!!
My typing speed was 106 with 7 errors (93% accuracy) for 99 wpm. (I printed the report out so I would have it as proof.)
The kids were speechless and, honestly, so was I. 😲
