Forums IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ PhotoReading, Memory Optimizer Need help

I bought the Photoreading course back in Februray. I went through the whole course and did all the things in the course but I gave up on it a few weeks later as I didn't have time to practice and plus I wasn't getting any results. But now that I have some tests coming up and a lot of reading to do I would like to go through the course again. But I don't want what happened to me earlier to happen to me again. Would someone here be willing to help me this course?

Thank You Wayne

Ask your questions right here!

Before you begin revisiting PhotoReading, go to our main website at http://www.learningstrategies.com. Read the article called "Works on all material" in the PhotoReading section. That should give you additional insights.

A question that I first came up with was this. After Photoreading say my economics textbook I decided to activate. But I realised that most of the information in the book was important and that the information already inside the book was basically boiled down. How should I activate the book in that situation?

As you go through the semester PhotoRead the assigned chapter, bracketing it with a couple of chapter before and a couple of chapters after. As a result, you will PhotoRead the book multiple times throughout the semester.

Activate as chapters are assigned. Super read, dip, mind map. Lectures are a great way to activate. Activate until it gels.

Now, since it appears you are at the end of a semester, and you are preparing for final exams, you still activate until it gels.

Super reading, dipping, mind mapping, mind probing--the whole nine yards. The more you activate, you will discover methods that work best for you. There are no if, ands, ors, or buts.

Another question. When I go through the course again, I'd be doing exercises that I've already done before. This will matter in any way when I go trhough the course again?

Thanks

I mean the Photoreading course

It is okay to repeat the exercises.

When I was Photoreading my Economics book I found that pages of it were quite large and I found it hard to look at the full two page spread at the same time. Is there any way in which I can look at the pages easily when they are large?

When I PR a newspaper I stand up above it! Are you looking at the pages, ie normally because the PRing step is really just about noticing that the pages are there.

Try extending your peripheral vision, I have found that by focusing at difference points over the top over the book at different distances away from the book, It naturally increases the breadth of my peripheral vision.

I'm just wondering are there so sort fo exercises or something that I can do to so I can recall what I read in the PR step or will my recollection of what I read in the PR step come naturally? I've been trying to PR my books but I find it hard as I can't seem to remember some things.
