Everyone is different. Be patient. Play with it. Some get it instantly. Some take longer. Some never get it (which I simply don't get).
If you saw me on television, you will know that I'm good at pulling out details after PhotoReading. When I want the big picture overview, I need to spend time activating the materials.
Paul Scheele, on the other hand, is great at pulling big picture information right after PhotoReading. He's better with details after a little activation.
Everyone is different.
Nonetheless, the system is set up so that beginning PhotoReaders can get through information with very good comprehenion in about 1/3 of the time it would take to read the material regularly.
Only a few minutes of that time is PhotoReading. The rest of the time is activating. How long do you activate? Until you understand the materials. How long before you understand it? Everyone is different.
