Your best net speed on any test that counts. Forty is a working typist, eighty is fast, and a hundred and twenty is the point where people ask you what you do for a living.

Your best accuracy on a test of a minute or longer that you typed the whole way through — or on any daily challenge, however quickly you finished it. Short timed tests do not count for this one: anybody can keep it clean for fifteen seconds, and a test you let run without typing is not accurate, it is empty.

Finish a long test without stopping — and the without stopping is the point, so a test left running while you do something else does not count. Speed over twenty minutes is a different thing from speed over one; it is the number that actually predicts how much work you get through in a day.

Your best run of ten tests in a row, averaged. One lucky minute cannot buy this one — it is the number that says what you can actually do, rather than what you managed once.
