  1. THURSDAY. I HAVE A TYPING TEST,, FOR A JOB..

    and i cant type worth a shit... i type with one finger from each hand,,,i sort of know where the letters are,, i just need a website that tests you...

    ive looked for some links but come up blank...

    it's funny me the most unqualified person to type,,,

    and here i am getting ready to take a typing test..

    please help me,

    i need a link and i know my grass-city blades are so comp. smart that this is a no brainer for my blades to find me a good link to improve my skills,,,

    damn... i need help..:cool:
     
  2. Google "typing tutor"

    There are quite a few, try them out and see what one works the best for you.
    Just remember to keep your fingers on the "Home Row" and those will ease you into all of the letters
     
  3. here's a pretty good site to improve typing speed

    TypingTest.com - Free Typing Test & Typing Games Online

    but the best way to practice is to try not to look at the keyboard when you type, eventually you will learn where all the keys are and it makes you type a lot faster

    in fact, there are keyboards that don't have any of the letters printed on it to improve typing
     

  4. thank-you so much for that link....

    i need to type 20 words a minute to pass this test....

    Waaaayy too stoned. The ones with names (astronaught) is tough as fuck
     
  10. 102wpm @ 98% accuracy. I've never taken a typing class.
     

  11. are you bragging?

    this test is tough as fuck for me,,,,

    im so not going to get this job.:(
     
  12. I didn't mean to brag with my previous post, I apologize if it is seen that way.

    My best advice would be to just spend time practicing, typing is a skill like anything else out there. If you were interviewing for a job moving cars from one end of a parking lot to the other and didn't know how to drive very well, I assume you'd spend some time developing that skill prior to the interview.

    Open a word document and just start typing this sentence.
    "The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog."

    Eventually you'll start getting faster as you develop muscle memory, and that's really all typing is. Good luck!
     
  13. Yeah chicken its all about "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" it uses every letter in the alphabet you will begin to learn quickly just keep typing that over and over and over again & you can be doing 50wpm before you know it
     

  14. Naw chicken, no need to brag I already know how awesomo I am :laughing: I kid I kid.

    I wish ya all the best bro, sneding you good vibes from across the pond. :love:
     
  15. damn chicken if your typing one finger each hand like that, its gonna be a very very tough learning process of being able to type to there expectations within a week, its token me years to type like i do, and im still not even close to mastering it, but never say never bro, straight up practice day and night till this test, maybe they'll still hire you even if your typing skills aren't totally up to par, but the better they are the more of a chance you'll have of scoring this job.
     
  16. Damn, twenty words a minute is easy bro. You will get it no matter what.
     
  17. I got 62 words per minute and I use the hunt and peck method
     
  18. Birds tend use that method, weird to see how you mastered it.... Your not part bird are you?
     
  19. chicken how have you not gotten used to typing yet! look at all these posts :p



    try getting used to using at least 3 or 4 of your fingers instead of 1.
     
  20. get into instant messaging, make sure you use homerow, and you will be amazed at your progress. I failed an 8th grade typing class at 12 wpm, then I got into instant messaging, took the same class as a freshman, starting at 80 wpm ( in 3 month's time).

    good luck, 2 days is going to be hard to double your typing speed, the good news is progress is swift at first and starts to slow down as you get faster, it's a logarithmic model.
