so i saw this thing that you could see how fast you read using fanfiction and not one of those inaccurate video test things
1. pick a fanfiction, the longer the better
2. note the time that you start reading
3. read the whole thing with no irruptions (if there is irruptions note when they started and when they ended)
4. note the time that you ended
5. find out how many minutes it took you to read the fic
6. divide the word count by how many minutes it took you to read it
7. boom that's your reading wpm
(my calculations under the cut)
1. pick a fanfiction, the longer the better
i read this one, its 272,413 words (very good would recomend)
2. note the time that you start reading
1:01am
3. read the whole thing with no irruptions (if there is irruptions note when they started and when they ended)
4. note the time that you ended
4:14am
5. find out how many minutes it took you to read the fic
3 hours and 13 minutes or 193 minutes
6. divide the word count by how many minutes it took you to read it
272,413/193
7. boom that's your reading wpm
