Also known as WAM, which is short for Words a
Minute, WPM is short for Words Per Minute and is the measurement
of how many words a minute someone is capable of typing without
making any errors. For
example, someone who is capable of typing 68 WPM is going to be able
to type more than someone who only types 32 WPM.
Many companies who employ people who work on computers now
require new employees to take a typing test for part of the hiring
process. If you do not meet the company's requirements, you will not
be considered for the job.
See document CH000751
for information about testing how fast you type.
