Very hard difficulty: for advanced typists
Very hard typing tests use dense, complex text: long sentences with multiple clauses, rare vocabulary, heavy punctuation, numbers, and technical terminology. These passages are drawn from scientific literature, legal briefs, advanced academic writing, and technical documentation. They are designed for typists who already type 70+ WPM on medium text and want to push further.
The very hard level simulates the kind of text a court reporter, scientific transcriptionist, or parliamentary secretary encounters. The vocabulary is deliberately unpredictable โ you cannot rely on word-shape recognition as much as you do on standard text, forcing letter-by-letter accuracy even at high speed.
Training strategy for very hard text
Do not attempt to hit your medium-level WPM on very hard text. Aim for clean accuracy (95%+) at whatever speed that requires, even if it is 20 WPM below your medium score. As accuracy at difficult vocabulary becomes habitual, your speed on that text will rise. Alternate between hard and very hard sessions so you are constantly challenged without constant frustration.
Very hard text is particularly useful for legal and medical professionals who need to type field-specific terminology at speed. If you regularly encounter specific technical vocabulary at work, copy those documents into a note file and use TypingMonk's custom text feature for targeted practice.
