→Keystroke Analysis
If you select LETTERS by pressing 1, each letter of the alphabet is displayed along with frequently occurring three-letter combinations. Two four-letter combinations are displayed at a time. Begin typing as soon as you hear the signal, and press '''ENTER''' when you complete both letter combinations. Each letter is tested several times to get an accurate analysis.
The average speed recorded for each key is compared to the rate determined for each key. This rate is relative to your Target WPM and varies based on the frequency with which each key is used in normal text. The criteria used to determine your individual keystroke proficiency are based on the relative frequency with which each key occurs in normal usage. You are expected to type the more commonly used keys faster (such as '''E''' and '''I'''). Keys such as '''Q''' and '''Z'''
that are not used as often do not have to be typed as fast.
When the analysis is complete, a report screen indicates which keys need more practice.
When the report appears, note your weak keys and the lessons in which they are presented. If no keys appear on this screen, you have mastered all of the keys that were just tested at your current Target WPM. At this point, you may want to return to the WPM Timing section and increase your Target WPM.
