Reading Speed Test

Pick a passage, start the timer, read at your natural pace — then stop. We'll show your words per minute (WPM).

How it works: WPM = number of words ÷ reading time in minutes. The average adult reads about 200–250 WPM on screen. Read for comprehension — don't skim — for the most meaningful result. All passages are original and the tool runs entirely in your browser.
