I personally don't do that (I just personally don't like it). If that's going to be something similar to what you're testing on, having more practice with that expectation might be helpful for you when you take actual tests. Second recommendation there's an instant death game mode on this site. Will it for sure work for you? I don't know, but it helped me enough that I thought I would share it with you so you could try (if you do, let me know how it turns out!) When I was slowing down, I was able to more consistently score higher accuracy, because I knew exactly where I needed to tap next. (EDIT: forgot to include that I try to increase my speed, without sacking accuracy, and I don't bother to correct mistakes because I can feel where/when I mess up) I worked all the way across the keyboard one day, and the results were phenomenal.
it looks something like this:įrtgbvfrtgbvfrtgbvfrtgbvfrtgbvfrtgbvfrtgbvfrĬan you see the pattern? I'm just working each finger on 3 keys (6 for index fingers), and I just tap middle, top, middle, bottom, middle, middle bottom. I started doing an exercise in Notepad where I just work my fingers individually, tapping all the keys that they should be tapping. Bottom line: Accuracy is equal to, or of greater importance, than how fast your fingers mood.ġ. On the other hand, I personally get ~70 WPM, but I've found on the games that I have higher accuracy, I can easily get over 95 WPM just because I don't have to backspace and retype as much. You're fingers could move at the same pace as someone running 140-170 WPM, but if you're consistently having to erase many of the letters you've already typed, then you could be driving your average down to 80-90.
Secondly, If you're making that many mistakes (as do I, so take this with a grain of salt coming from me), then you really SHOULD work on accuracy before worrying more about speed. I'm finding it hard to picture a situation where the grade of a typing class is going to impact you that greatly (unless, I suppose, you're going to be a stenographer). Depending on how you, as an individual, responds to stress you could have been making the situation worse. Well, the main thing is to not let it get to you that badly.
