ALright this is going to sound very odd. I purchased the photoreading home study course about three years ago, while i was in a sophomore in high school and i was so incredibly scared to face the fear of the course not working. SO i would listen to tape 1 and tape 2 and i would never go beyond that and i did that for three years. THe course has been sitting there in my desk for so ver long and finally now that i am a freshman at college i finally got the courage to listen to seven tapes of the 8 tapes a week ago. Actually maybe it was not the courage, its just that i did horribly my first semester in general chemistry 1 and in writing. I felt so overwhelmed and hopeless with all the work. So now that i am midsemester into my second semester i am doing even worse in chemistry, i dont understand the concepts i cant use the right reasoning to solve any of the problems (im failing the class) and feeling hopeless, ive talked to the professor for extra help and asked for a tutor, nothing seems to be working.Its mostly because i didn't really understand the concepts of the first semester so thats why its becoming more complicated to understand the concepts of the next semester. I dont want to fail. SO..one day i suddenly remebered that PR was still there and maybe it could help me with understanding chemistry, im trying to play with it like Paule Scheele says but things aren't working. I have photoread three sections of the textbook and attempted to activate what i photoread by mindprobing with the textbook's question and honestly i dont know if i am doing anything right. Im really trying to make this work but i just feel so bad, things aren't going well. I feel like i am in so much pressure right now. Please someone help, i need so much advice!!!

My first bit of advice is to repost this message in the PhotoReading forum.

I don't know why, but I think that PhotoReading can help you. Lots of people turn to PRing when experiencing and academic crisis. This normally makes it more difficult to learn to PR, by trying to learn two things at once (PR and you course work) while being stressed.

My advice is to use the relaxation instructions from the PR course and just use the direct learning method to help you with your studying. Don't try and achieve the conscious activation. Just use the all the PR steps for Direct Learning before your study sessions and notice how after a while you are becoming more and more comfortable with the course material.


Do post in the PR forum too.

You are perfection.
