I did the test on the library computer and was almost out of the time allotted to use the computer. I was confused about what to type, so I didn't type the proper information. It doesn't matter to me, because I already know my typing accuracy and speed. However, I wonder if others have trouble with this section. I was very pleased with the thoroughness of the READI test. Thank you for allowing me to take it. Have a wonderful day!"
