I would say there is really no clear-cut answer to the question...However, accuracy is paramount!Personally I'd rather employ someone who types 60wpm w/ 100% accuracy than one who types 200wpm w/ ANY discrepancies...make sense to anyone but me?
The standard score on a words per minute typing test is considered to be 60 wpm. This minimum score measures both your overall keystroke rate (how many keys you actually hit in the minute) as well as your accuracy. Therefore, if you hit 70 keystrokes, but made 7 errors, your score would be 63 wpm.
