How is WPM calculated?

WPM = (correct characters ÷ 5) ÷ minutes elapsed — the standard typing-industry convention that treats every 5 characters as one 'word', regardless of how long the real words are.

Does a typo end the test?

In Key Weakness Drill, that depends on the mode — check the on-screen instructions before you start, since some typing games here end immediately on a mistake and others just track accuracy.

Can I retry the same passage?

Yes, a new passage loads each time you click "Start typing" again in Key Weakness Drill, so you can keep practicing without repeating the exact same text back to back.
