3 Minutes FAQs
What makes the 3 Minutes test unique?
The 3 Minutes test challenges your ability to maintain typing stamina. Shorter tests measure your absolute maximum burst speed, while longer tests measure your true, sustainable typing speed under continuous effort.
How is my WPM calculated in this mode?
We use the standard formula where 5 characters equals 1 word. Your "Net WPM" factors in uncorrected errors. We encourage you to use Backspace to fix mistakes as you go!
Is punctuation included?
By default, this is a pure speed test (lowercase words only). You can easily enable Punctuation and Numbers at any time using the toggles in the top right of the test container above.
