What this test measures
A full minute is long enough that the test measures stamina rather than speed. Most people lose 20 to 30 percent of their opening rate by the end, and the final fifteen seconds are usually the slowest part of the run by a clear margin.
Technique choice matters more here than anywhere else. Butterfly clicking, which alternates two fingers on the same button, distributes the load across two muscles and holds up over a minute far better than single-finger clicking does.
Expect 5 to 6 clicks per second. Above 7 sustained across a full minute is exceptional and almost always means two fingers rather than one.

How to score higher on sixty seconds
This is an endurance event, not a speed one. At a full minute the winner is whoever loses the least from their starting rate, not whoever starts fastest. Plan to open at something you are certain you can hold for the whole minute and then hold it.
Keep the arm supported. Rest the forearm on the desk and let the fingers do the work. Any rate that depends on wrist or arm movement will fail before the minute is up; a finger-only rhythm from a supported arm can last.
Do not stop to recover. A two-second pause to shake out the hand costs more clicks than it saves. If the hand is tiring, slow down slightly rather than stopping, and keep the rhythm continuous.
When sixty seconds is the right test
Sixty seconds is the duration for testing sustained technique rather than speed, and it is the one most relevant to anyone who clicks continuously for long periods. It also produces the most reliable average of any length on the site, because a minute is long enough for every source of noise to cancel out. Scores are much lower than on short durations and are not comparable to them. If you only care about how fast you can click, this is the wrong test; take the one second test instead.
Frequently asked questions
What is a good CPS on a 60 second test?
Typical is 5 – 6 clicks per second on this duration, and 7+ is a good result. Those figures apply to 60 seconds specifically and not to any other length.
Why does my 60 second score differ from my 30 second score?
Because the two lengths measure different capacities. A 60 second run is long enough that forearm fatigue reduces your rate before the end. Typical on 30 seconds is 5 – 6, which is why each duration carries its own scoring curve here.
How many total clicks is that over 60 seconds?
At the typical rate you would land roughly 300 to 360 clicks in the full run. The result screen shows your exact total alongside the rate.
Does the timer start when the page loads?
No, it starts on your first click. Reading this page costs you nothing and the full 60 seconds is available for clicking.
