It was an interesting experiment, and my results seem to be atypical.
I got 1126 wpm with 100% comprehension on the first test which is average to low for me. I knew there'd be a test so I reread parts that included numbers to bump my comprehension score.
However, unlike everyone else who's posted here, I got a lower score on the second test; 750-800 wpm. I think that's partially due to formatting and that they were using time as the fixed variable not words. I had to scroll down repeatedly, and took my eyes off the screen to do so. I followed that site to a second test (different text) and tried that. This time I ran out of text before the minute was up. That gave me about 900 wpm.
