We did this beginning in our fourth grade classes through our sixth grade classes! I was always done first, so the other kids in my row would snag me to come take their typing tests for them while they distracted the teacher with a question. My row always won the computer challenges. /smug

I am a good and fast typist when put under scrutiny and if I focus. Last time I took a typing test I scored at 91 or 93 (I don't remember, it was a 90's number), but I put 90 on my resume.
