5 Minute Typing Test
The five-minute typing test is an endurance run that measures how fast and accurately you type when fatigue, focus and consistency all come into play. Sustaining speed across a full 5 minutes is a very different skill from a short burst — it rewards comfortable posture, steady breathing and clean technique.
Use this longer format to train concentration and to find the pace you can actually hold during real work like writing emails, essays or reports, rather than the spike speed you can hit for only a few seconds.
