About the 1,000-word test
The 1,000-word typing test flips the usual format: instead of racing a countdown, you type a fixed 1,000 words and the clock counts up. The test ends the moment you finish the last word.
A thousand words is a real workout — roughly a short essay. It is the best test here of long-form typing stamina.
Tips for a better score

Take a few seconds to stretch your fingers before you begin.
- 2
Pace yourself — a steady rhythm beats sprinting and stalling.
- 3
Watch the progress bar rather than the clock; finishing cleanly matters more than the time.
1,000-Word typing test FAQ
How long is the 1,000-word test?
It lasts 1,000 words — the clock counts up from your first keystroke and stops when you type the final character.
How are WPM and accuracy calculated?
Net WPM counts only correctly typed characters, divided by five (the standard word length) and by the minutes elapsed. Raw WPM counts everything you typed. Accuracy is the share of your keystrokes that were correct.
What happens when I make a mistake?
Nothing stops — wrong characters turn red and you can keep typing. Press Backspace to go back and fix them. Uncorrected errors lower your net WPM, and every slip counts against accuracy.
Is this typing test free?
