How many clicks should I get in 60 seconds?

Around 270 clicks is average, 354+ is good, and 444+ is excellent for a 60-second window with regular clicking.

Why is my 60-second CPS lower than my 1-second CPS?

Fatigue. Click rate decays as the window grows — everyone's does. A ~7.6 CPS burst typically becomes ~5.7 CPS over 10 seconds and ~4.5 over a minute.

Which duration is the "real" click test?

There's no official one, but 5 and 10 seconds are the most quoted (the Kohi test popularised 10). What matters is comparing scores only within the same duration.

60-second click test: what counts as good?

60-second window

Average ≈ 4.5 CPS (270 clicks)

Clicks per second falls as the window grows — burst speed fades into endurance. For 60 seconds, 5.9+ CPS is a good score and 7.4+ CPS is excellent.

60 seconds is an endurance event. Nobody holds their burst rate this long: forearms pump, fingers dull, and the score is decided by discipline in the middle third, not the opening flurry.

Score bands for 60 seconds

Band	Rate	Total clicks
Average	4.5 CPS	≈ 270
Good	5.9 CPS	≈ 354
Excellent	7.4 CPS	≈ 444

Why the duration changes everything

Modelling sustained clicking as a decay curve calibrated to the 5-second average of 6.2 CPS: a clicker who bursts 7.6 CPS for one second holds only ~4.9 CPS across 30 seconds and ~4.2 CPS across 100. Comparing scores across different durations is meaningless — always quote the window with the number.

Strategy for the 60-second window

Negative-split it: deliberately hold back for the first quarter, settle into a sustainable rhythm, and spend whatever's left at the end. Switching fingers mid-test (butterfly style) redistributes fatigue and is legal everywhere except your own conscience.

Compare your rate against the verdict pages — say is 6 CPS good? — or see how the pros inflate their numbers with butterfly and drag clicking.
