One thing more frustrating than taking this test is having to wait for 6-8 weeks for the scores. Overall, I feel that i did better. I was able to finish all nine passages (last time only seven). The funny thing is that the prep course I took said that it would be normal if I only finished seven or eight. Anyway, I got into "state" w/affirmations, set my purpose to "understand the passages and cue up associations that will help me answer most of the questions correctly", photoread all my passages and questions and then rapid read the passages. Before rapid reading, I had mind probed by asking myself what the main idea and the author's point of view were. As I answered the questions, I would also superread and dip to find the answers. I started to get tired towards the end, but I went with what I felt was the best answer. I am very nervous about this. I feel good, but I don't want to be too optimistic. I still feel that i need work on my activation. i don't know what kind of feeling to look for when activating. My best guess is that activation should feel like deja vu or like it all comes together. I don't quite get that feeling. Skittering or Super reading/dipping feels the same with or without Photoreading. Maybe, you can suggest a solution. When I hear all the success stories on this forum, I feel like I am not doing something right. I would greatly desired to master this whole mind system. With your guidance and hard work, I will do so. Thanks in advance.
