Advanced Typing Test
The advanced typing test is hard mode: punctuation and numbers are mixed into every passage, so you type the commas, capitals, brackets and digits that real writing and code actually contain. Most typing tests strip these out and inflate your score — this one keeps them in for a truer reading of your speed.
If plain-word tests feel too easy, this is where you push your limit. Reaching for the top number row and shift-key symbols breaks your rhythm, so a strong score here means your accuracy holds up under real-world pressure, not just on lowercase letters.

Frequently asked questions
What makes this typing test advanced?
It turns on both punctuation and numbers, so every passage contains capitals, commas, symbols and digits. That extra reach makes it harder — and a more honest test of everyday typing — than a plain lowercase test.
Why is my WPM lower on the advanced test?
Punctuation and numbers force your fingers off the home row and add shift-key combinations, which naturally slows you down. A lower score here is normal; it reflects the kind of text you type in real life.
Can I adjust the difficulty?
Yes. Once the test loads you can toggle punctuation and numbers on or off independently and change the duration or word count to build up gradually.
