    Exactly the same as mine. Now, how do we improve on that? Hmmm...

    I can't.  It doesn't matter how hard I try.

    Indeed. I suppose you saw the topic about the plateau we're on now? Seems the way forward would be to start focusing on our errors now. Maybe I'll get around to it... or maybe I'll just keep on typing and letting time do its' magic. That does seem to work, albeit slowly.

    I'm still at about 50wpm. Would you guys mind doing an experiment using hi-games typing test?

    Firstly, practice trying for absolute one hundred percent accuracy (not worrying about speed at all).
    Secondly, practice typing at a very steady rhythmn, also striving for one hundred percent accuracy.

    Let's see how that effects the speed.
    I'm sure the answer to the brick walls we have reached can be overcome.

    Yep, I'm at that 50WPM plateau too, and have been for a while. Like DreymaR though I keep thinking that I must get around to concentrating on higher accuracy but other things (work!) keep getting in the road.

    I just figured the 50wpm plateau I am at has to do that didn't start touch typing till a little over a year ago when I tried Dvorak first before hitting on Cmk.

    And the big question is jag50: What's the secret?

    I'm trying to go an entire week without doing any typing tests. Hopefully, there will be a change...
