evil^milk, that's crazy fast.

I can read very quickly but I slowed myself down because I saw it was a comprehension test as well.

267wpm and 100% comprehension.

[edit] Speed reading with still-high comprehension (no point retaking that test, it's just an estimate), I get 794wpm.

Although in sixth grade we took this test where you final score was compared and gave you a 1-100 statewide score. So if you got a 50 you are right in the middle of the averge.

I got a 99

Percentile 99, right? You got everything right.

I did the same thing as well (and a percentile of 99.99? 99?), in the US, it was called the SAT9.

I've never thought of myself as a fast reader. I've always known I was a slow reader, and I am a slow reader.

It's getting harder for me lately too, as I find myself having to go over and over certain parts to solidify the concepts in my head.

I don't know why I do this(doing it a lot when reading these C# books, that could be one reason why). Perhaps I have a learning disability I never had diagnosed.

Guys, look into this program:

http://www.acereader.com/

Before this program I was stuck at 198 wpm. In two days, I went from that to 941 wpm.

For serial, this is one program that deserves your munz.

I know I sound like a dumbass marketer but it can make your life a whole lot easier, specially if you're in school or college.

[soulslicer]

there is no point in reading quickly, its whether the information sinks into your head or not..

 

[The Monkey]

121 wpm with 82% comprehension.

And it's not much faster in Swedish.

Very true, but there are programs that teach you to both read quickly and comprehend everything.

Sorry we don't want any.

Suit yourself :E

Grr, 1 question wrong, just 1! Why do I feel like way back when I took my SATS and got 1 wrong on the verbal exam.. and only 10 correct on the math portion??

I hate tests. I grew up, so I wouldn't HAVE to take them. Argh, self-doubt is creeping in!!
