Why this test matters

Transcriptionists type while listening, which means real-time, sustained WPM matters more than burst speed. Industry standards: general transcription roles want 60+ WPM; medical and legal transcription typically require 70–80 WPM with sub-1% error rates; specialized real-time captioning (CART, court reporting) demands 200+ WPM via stenotype. The test below defaults to the 5-minute format — the closest free analog to a real transcription assessment.

Frequently asked questions

What's the minimum WPM to work as a transcriptionist?
60 WPM is the industry-accepted minimum. Most agencies prefer 70+ WPM with 98%+ accuracy.
Is transcription a good remote work option in 2026?
AI tools have absorbed a chunk of low-end transcription, but specialized work (medical, legal, accented audio) remains in demand.
Do I need certification to be a transcriptionist?
Not for general transcription. Medical and legal roles often require certification (e.g., AAERT, AHDI).
