I don't know why, but right now I have a serious problem with writing speed. 110 minutes to write 1000 words of language analysis >.<.

Probably thinking process

I don't think it is directly the writing speed. Its more about the time to think of the correct words to use.

I write as fast as I can, then proofread.
But I guess it makes my work look messy

I am exactly the same.  Takes me so long to think out what I am going to write.
Any tips are much appreciated.  I was going to start the exact same thread lol!

I don't mean spelling errors but like words to use to improve your expression. I'm sure most people write at a similar speed but when it goes to thinking and writing there is major differences

^yeah, i don't think you would find much difference in writing speed if you told people to just copy out stuff, but thinking and writing is another ball game!

No no, expression proofreading, not spelling
I cross out simple-looking words and replace them with longer ones

i also write really fast but its really messy. At the end of year examination will that put me at a disadvantage?

Write whatever word comes to your mind first, then go back and swap it for a better one if you have time.

Only if it's illegible

Yea, most likely depends on the degree of messiness lol. Should be ok if an average person can read it

I think your thinking sentence by sentence, as too put what in what sentence. Obviously doing it that way will take time. If you know what too write, your speed automatically increases..!

As has been said, the more you practice, the quicker you get at writing quickly. Just try not to sacrifice legibility too much if you can help it. I know of students who have illegible handwriting, and it probably cost them in the end of year exams. Not by much -- I'm talking the difference between like, 45 and 50 here, but it still counts for something if you're wanting to be one of the elite. If you MUST write messily (and I can understand that) try to make your handwriting big so it's easier to read that way.

this sounds stupid but when i want to write fast i have to write atleast the first line neat and without a mistake cause neatness matters for the first line then after that i just write whatever.
