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.
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.
@@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.
all right, here's the deal, tere's a bomb beneath your macbook and I need you to type every word I say as fast as you possibly can. ... actually harder than I thought it would be....

Lauren and Nick are honestly such a great duo. I love them.
The change of scenes lmao🤣
From: NOOOOoo!
To: That's the importance of keeping you cellphone in your pocket at work, guys.😊
Meanwhile stenographers typing at 300 wpm

I love how Lauren took over the Keanu part and Nick took over the Sandra part
Arguably, that's the importance of keeping your phone somewhere less accessible than your pocket at work
Definitely what I was thinking.
i love her different voices, she's so funny 😂
She nailed the Keanu voice wtf
*nods while checking this out on my cellphone at work*
Just punches in random keys ignoring what the other person is saying*
Speed 3: Overruled
Court stenographers type at 200+ WPM. Typing 50 WPM with one hand is very possible.

MY BRAINS!!!
Lauren is fucking hilarious
There were like 3 different explosions lol
That might work
Just type the word ‘a’repeatedly or ‘I’
I was thinking "no" but forgot there are 1 letter words
50wpm is slow, though...
50wpm is like nothing though
You must be fast! Average on QWERTY is about 40.
@@SashaKittens really?? i average around 100wpm w punctuation
@@whatskraken3886 Definitely not impossible. I can do that on short 1-5 minute tests as well. But that is very fast!
@@SashaKittens I’ve never tested for more than a few minutes at a time, and I can’t think at 100wpm, so I can’t sustain that for more than a bit
@@whatskraken3886 Most people talk at a good deal faster than 100. I think you'd be surprised how slow and unnatural even up to about 150 sound.

Do typos set off the bomb? Because I can keep that up for a while
In fact I can probably get Alexa or whatever to code me a bot pretty quick
"Alexa type "a " infinitely
Meh
