What does 1200 lines per 8 hour shift equal in words per minute?

Does any one have any requirements for editing for an 8-hr shift? I know for straight typing is usually required to type 1200-1500. Thanks in advance. ...

Geez it has been a struggle to get to 1200 lines per day this week. I used to be able to do a lot more. What happened? ...

I may be seeking a new position, and in general, due to possible better flexibility, I prefer to work as an IC. I read that transportal does hire ICs, but I also read that they require 1200 lines per day, and you have 3 months to get to that minimum. I must confess that, on the account I have worked for years, it is a struggle to make 1,000 lines per day. Maybe it is the platform. Maybe it is the fact that the account is always making changes or has a ton of "exceptions" to the 20-page guideline ...

Hi:I am make incentive based on minutes, but I work on a system that lets me check how many lines and minutes I have typed in a day also. Just in case I have to get another job based on lines, I wanted to know what is the average amount of lines per hour or per 8 hour shift. Thanks for the advice in advance. MeL ...

Maybe back when the medical records department used to stick up for MTs and let certain dictators know when they were falling short of their part of the equation. I cannot believe the level of inequity there is in this profession. ...

I have been an MT for 12-years now. I used to get paid hourly, now they are suggesting 12.5-cents per line. Is this too low? Is 12.5 cents per line fair, anyone know? ...

Forget shift differentials with this joint, too. Can you imagine being the parent of one of these goons? I'd be so ashamed. ...

With decades of experience as an MT, I'm just now getting into VR. I'd like to know, if you would please care to share, just how many lines per hour you are able to get with VR. I know this varies from person to person and platform to platform, but please, help me out with this! I'm terrified I'm going to go broke doing this! Thanks in advance. ...

I don't have much to compare to, as this is the only company I've worked for as an editor. I wanted to get an idea of the different platforms we each use and our lines per hour. Talking only about editing and not straight typing, what do you average lph and what platform do you use? Thank you! ...

Trying to get an idea of how much I should be aiming for (working on building my speed). How many lines per hour do you average? (No VR or anything like that...just normal transcription). Thanks!! ...

Hi! Just wanted to know... I have been told by others who are QA/editors that you dont always get paid by the line or by hour... some places pay them differently. I dont understand how else you can get paid, that doesnt make any sense to me. Anyone know anything about this? I want to be an editor eventually but would like to at least make more than what I did when I transcribe. thoughts? Thanks! Jiles ...

What is reasonable on the new account for which they are hiring? Any feedback is appreciated. ...

I was just offered a position with a company requiring 350 lines/hour. Is this easily achievable. My current line count is usually between 200-250. ...

I have been promoted to QA and was wondering what the average line count you that do QA get in an hour or a day. I have been doing this for a few months and I am making about the same amount of money per month as I was with MT. Am I being too slow? I am afraid to speed it up for fear of missing something. My workload is about 50% fill in blanks and scan and 50% listen and read along full audit stuff. Right now I am averaging 400 to 450 lines an hour or 3200 to 3600 a day. I was hoping to make a ...

My accounts were recently switched from typing to mostly ASR...I'm really struggling here! It seems like I take longer to edit jobs than to type them out. (Of course, it would help if the ASR program was more accurate). Why is this so hard for me? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. ...

Can anyone tell me what the average lines per hour average for either Nuance or MModel ...

I'm just thinking back to that whoever person that posted on here about a week or two ago that says he or she easily makes $16 to $18 an hour at Nuance and has plenty of work and always gets paid on time. A lot of replies said the poster is probably a fake and is someone from Nuance management or human resources who is desperate for people to hop on board. I posted that it would be impossible to make $16 as an MT at Nuance, for you'd have to be nearly bionic in terms of yo ...

How many lines per hour do you average doing straight typing? I used to get paid by the hour. The job I'm interviewing for is straight typing. I know many factors come into play, but what is average? ...

I'm just starting a new job and I'm not sure but I think they said 562.5 lines per shift and I'll only be working 3-hour shift. Again I'm not sure but think she said 5625 lines per payperiod. I know I should've paid closer attention when we were talking but I was trying to write down everything she said and I know I missed some and these line counts was one of them. After the weekend is over, I'll call and double check on things. I just didn't want to wait ...

Can someone please tell me the lines per hour requirements as an MME for each of the following? Thank you, I do not have e-mail with those requirements and needed to know. Thanks again!! TranscriptionASR/editing whatever they call itStraight QA ...

Hi, I seem to struggle with line counts (a few years into MTing). Some accounts I am fine with and some very slow. Because of the nature of the work (and working from home), I have no way to gauge if the faster accounts are just abnormally easy or the slower accounts are abnormally hard. - Do you all (who have decent line counts) feel like you are moving like a mad person or just moving along at a decent pace? Any ideas on how to tell what my issues are or what the scoop is?&n ...

I'm new at my first job. I'm not earning much. How many lines (at 65 keystrokes) should I be realistically be doing per hour? Thanks ...

I'm sure this question has been asked before, but how many lines on average would you say you can edit with ASR per hour? I think the most I have ever been able to do was around 250 myself. I just wondered how I measured up with other MTs with the ASR jobs. I remember a couple of years ago not long after MQ started up with ASR getting a company email describing an MT (no name was given) who could edit over 600 lines per hour and over 400 with straight transcription. ...

I've been MIA for 2 weeks but may have to return to work tomorrow....sigh. I was checking emails and saw the line requirement. ...
