Test: LSAT Logical Reasoning
Transcriptionist: To be a successful transcriptionist, you must focus on improving your typing speed. But “words per minute” alone is not the best measure. You should instead focus on being able to quickly and accurately type long passages of at least five hundred words. You need to encounter a variety of different words, numbers, and types of punctuation. Shorter passages, while useful to obtain a higher maximum speed, are insufficient to sustain speed over the long term.
