read faster

So today I start working on improving both reading speed and comprehension. I figure that improvements here pay off with learning anything else in the future, so this goal is a good place to start on my new unitask-oriented method. So…

On day one, after two inventory tests, may current rate of reading is a solid 162 words per minute, with 66% comprehension. From this point, that means that I must improve to reading 486 words per minute and have better than 66% comprehension to complete this goal. Here goes…

How does one become a speed reader? I read quickly but don’t really ask me what I’ve read. Any suggestions?

i have an issue with words, mainly because i am dsylexic and it makes things difficut, but recently i have been reading a studying a lot more and its been helping, i need to keep it up.

before me and my friends were like ‘ew who reads books?’ but now we all started reading actually good books about like teens and popularity and stuff and it really passes time in class. i read kinda fast but i dont really remember what im reading if i dont really concentrate. so im working on making it a habit.

If I could learn whatever I wanted, in a much faster time…
I would be much more powerful!

I wish this on my self… I have to tell myself to continue to read books!

Since I was young, I’ve loved to read anything I could get my hands on, and my vocabulary continues to grow every year thanks to my English classes at school and freetime spent reading. Yet, I don’t know why it takes me days to read some books that most people finish within a few hours. Perhaps it is an attention-span issue, yet I have no problem getting absorbed in a story for hours on end. I often reread books and other things to better comprehend the meanings and themes of the story. I’m a huge Harry Potter fan and even went to the midnight party for the sixth book release; my friends finished the book that very night whereas I slowly moved through it in my free time over the next week. I think if I read more quickly I might have more time to do other things or read even more books.

I can’t even enjoy reading. I have all of these books on history, world events, and fiction that I want to read. But, I’ve finally figured out that there is a word for my reading techniques, “Subvocalizing,” or talking to yourself in your head while silently reading. How do I read faster? Even magazines are less enjoyable b/c I’m just so slow. That person that said 100 words in an hour? Of course, I’m kidding, but I say to you, “quit your whining ;-)” HELP!!!

i want to read faster coz i suck at reading comprehension questions, i take 5-6 minutes reading 1200 words paragraph and hence lose out on the questions and i want to read faster…

i can read books at a good speed, but not in exams, when its all on my head…
