I found some online reading test and i was wondering if an experienced photoreader could read it and tell me what his or her WPM is and what their comprehension % is. http://www.readingsoft.com/index.html

My WPM was 138, thats not good
I hope photoreading will work for me.

I am still waiting for my parents to give the okay because they are the ones with the money.

I got 832 WPM and 82% comprehension, without putting much effort into it at all.

Good luck with your parents.

Holy Dan G, that is nuts! Are you using your photo reading skills to achieve such high WPM and comprehension? How long have you been using photo reading?

I got 831 wpm with 64% comprehension. I need to pick the course back up. I haven't used photoreading in a few months. I does get rusty, but you can dust it off.

211wpm, 73% probably couldve been better if my mom didn't interrupt my constantly

This is interesting since basically everyone at school can read quite a bit faster than me with decent or better comprehension..

64% comprehension @900+ wpm (skittering method with no preparation).

Not bad, impressed myself, but you'd have to read a longer text to see the speed benefits of PR.
