The english 200 setting thing is very true, I'm 130-140wpm on that setting and only 110-120 on english 10k, add punctuation and caps to that and I'm like 100-110 at best
But the english 10k also isn't representative because all the words are equally random whereas in actual english some words are used much more than others. Quotes are the best for practice probably

Which is why I also recommend quotations... and real life typing as part of the practice routine. However, using English 10K in Monkeytype, does expose you to many, many more ngrams in a real woRd setting, even if it's not a real worLd setting, and is still highly beneficial when practicing.

Don't worry about speed. It's not important.
