I just did a few quick calculations and determined that my average typing speed during today's comprehensive exam was 22.99 words per minute. I am surprised that the number was this high, particularly as I took a few minutes to think about each answer and then finished about 10 minutes before my time expired. If these factors are taken into consideration it seems probable that I sustained an average speed of greater than 25 words per minute.
While 25 words per minute isn't necessarily the world's fastest typing speed, I wouldn't have guessed that I could maintain such a speed for 5 hours going in to the exam.
