    Meanwhile stenographers typing at 300 wpm

      170 wpm stenography student here! Stenographers use a very different type of keyboard to write that allows them to write entire syllables, full words, and even phrases in one stroke. And it takes many many years of training to get to that 225+ wpm to qualify professionally. There's no reason to expect a paralegal without that training or special keyboard to be able to do it. I believe the average typist can only do about 40 on QWERTY. I'm incredibly fast and I max out at about 100 on QWERTY but can do 170 on steno.

      This makes me curious. No idea what the special keyboard is like in anyway but I can do 110 to 130​ on a regular keyboard depending on some small factors @@SashaKittens

      ​​@@ThePolarpopthe stenographer keyboard and language is so different that a layman has 0 wpm on it without a year or two of theory training. I do 100 on QWERTY, but after theory I was at about 40 on steno. It's a completely different skill. Eventually you can go significantly faster, but it takes significantly more training to do so.
      Though the traits and factors that make you so fast on QWERTY might come in handy in the subsequent speed building if you were to go that route.

    Court stenographers type at 200+ WPM. Typing 50 WPM with one hand is very possible.

    • @ed6705
      @ed6705 6 วันที่ผ่านมา +27

      Stenographers and paralegals aren't the same thing. Stenographers use special machines to essentially type shorthand. You need training to be able to read it. Paralegals are typing full words, whichbis much slower.

      It's impossible to write at any speed with only one hand on a steno keyboard. And on a QWERTY, I'd be surprised if I could go over 25 one handed. Maybe I'll test myself sometime 😂

      Thank you! I know stenographer typing is fundamentally different, and that a paralegal isn't a stenographer. My point was about the _possibility_ of typing 50 WPM with one hand. I know 100+ WPM on QWERTY isn't all that rare, and naively averaging that suggests 50 WPM is possible.

    • @SashaKittens

      ​@@nathankurtz8045 I see! I don't know other people's experiences, but I wouldn't say that half the available hands means typing at half the speed for me in either form because there's so much muscle memory involved in typing that would be so different if one hand had to do it all. So assuming the person had no time to learn and prepare to do it, I'd be really surprised if anyone could type at 50 one-handed.

      I average about 98 WPM with both hands on a regular keyboard. Just tried a typing test with my left hand and got 25 WPM. XD I know I used to be able to do 45 WPM with one hand, but that was back when I broke my wrist and had a full month of forced one-handed typing.
