From what I have tested, I am around 28-30 words per minute. I would say that I'm pretty average since I've seen people on this forum say they write 1400 words in 40 minutes (35 wpm). But in comparison to my school (which is tiny), I'm one of the fastest so i dont really know.

wait just saw your subjects how did u accelerate in standard maths adv eng and modern??
omg i'm so sorry for not replying until now - i didn't accelerate, i'm doing a compresed curriculum hsc (which i suppose is similar?) for clarity here's what nesa describes the system as because i don't think i can describe as clear myself haha

"In a compressed delivery model, students complete the Preliminary and HSC courses for a subject within one year before doing their HSC exams. Where all courses are compressed, students typically do three subjects in Year 11 and another three subjects in Year 12. They sit HSC exams at the end of Years 11 and 12 for the subjects studied in those years."

i need to figure out a clearer way of describing how i am getting my hsc but will still allow me to show my subjects in my signature, welp

life hacks with rosieohposie: if in year 11 you don't finish all your essays in exams and leave questions unanswered, then when you start finishing your exams entirely with full essays you will look so much more impressive!!!!!! (source: my experience. do not try at home if grades are important to you)

Is 21wpm slow?
Honestly, I think so. that would mean that in a 40 minute english essay, you can only write 840 words. I'd try to get it to at least 950 words. Again, i might not be correct but I think to have sufficient, sustained and in depth analysis you'd need to write more than that.
