   I am skeptical about speed reading techniques. Not that they might not work but I don’t think you can read as in depth as you would with slow reading. I definitely think there are benefits to slow reading. I think they both have their merits.

   i think skimming and scanning is not for every one, not every one has the same level to memorize what is being read. specially for me, when i skim stuff in reading part, i forget what i have just read..????? guys my advise for you is try doing ” headings, and match the sentence” questions first,

   Some one should make a program that pops up a window and scrambles a set of numbers for you, that would be cool.

    T0mmyAngel0, some autistic people can flash memorize (my own term), so it’s not impossible. It’s just not damn likely for normal people.

    Mental Photography is a joke!!! Dont believe it. The reading record is held by Anna Jones 4,244 Words per minute. So how 25.000 words are possible tell me?

    Average 10 to 15 seconds.
    But I did 20 seconds the first time, only because after he zoomed out I didn’t stop until he started talking lol

    if you are counting up 20 numbers that are scrambled, what is the average amount in seconds that your brain should count them up?
19. Davidreeryan says:

    July 24, 2010 at 9:56 pm

    yeah now all i get 3 seconds:/ this is just as good as real time b/c i timed myself and it’s every three seconds before the clock hits the next number.
    it do work with ur reading and if you try fallowing it with your hands you type fater to:p
20. Davidreeryan says:

    July 24, 2010 at 10:18 pm

    well you should start counting from 13 to 30 so only 17 seconds to do this.
    i did it in 17 seconds not 20:p than i worked my way,-i did it for an hour- but now…. i do in like…. 4seconds but got close to 3:/
21. Davidreeryan says:

    July 24, 2010 at 10:49 pm
