what is a good wpm rate
Best Answer: I don't know how, but I can type 141 WPM. We had to do an entire typing course at my school and that was the highest I achieved, my lowest being in the low 100s. Anything above 60 is really considered good. Average is around 45, I'd say, and anything below that is beginner. A WPM score of 80 is generally considered professional-level. A rate of 60-65 WPM is usually what you will need in order to get a job requiring computer skills.
