I did that in my Public Speaking class... But only with my teacher's lectures! The results were surprisingly high.

my friends do that with my presentations because i am oddly comfortable in front of crowds the most i have ever said was 3 ums and 4 likes but in everyday conversations i say like a lot xD

In my history class last semester, we had a student teacher who would say 'uhm' a lot. So me and my friends counted all of them, and by the end of one week we had counted over 1000 'uhms'. It was pretty bad, but so funny because he knew we were doing it which only made him more nervous and say 'uhm' more.

You totally got this off of an old MLIA, and yes, I have. My science teacher said um a good 200-something times in one class last year.
