A Day at the Market
About this typing test
Everyday words about food, people and noise. Easy rhythm, few capitals. The test starts with "A Day at the Market" and, if you are fast enough to finish it, carries on with other beginner passages until the time runs out.
Your net speed counts only words typed correctly, so mistakes you leave behind cost you speed. Raw speed counts every key you pressed. Accuracy is the share of key presses that were right the first time, so corrected mistakes still count against it. Employers usually look at net speed with at least 90 to 95% accuracy. More on how the scores work.
Questions
What is a paragraph typing test?
A test on whole sentences instead of single words, with capitals, commas, full stops and sometimes numbers. It is closer to real writing than a word test, so most people score a little lower on it. See all paragraph typing tests.
What level is "A Day at the Market"?
Beginner. Short, common words, few capitals and little punctuation. If you finish it before the time is up, the test continues with other beginner passages.
