Hello all, I have just ordered the PR course and am anxiously awaiting delivery. I had a few questions regarding the difficulty of applying this material and learning the course. I have a very low attention span and i usually dont finish anything i start if it appears to be too much work. I work in the computer field and I hve recently signed up for courses that are very difficult. In fact, i have to basically read and memorize 4 book that are about 1,000 pages each. I have no idea howi will do it and that is the reason i bought this system. But i have worries, will this system allow me to read and understand everything on these pages?? Every word and configuration on these pages are very important and the steps outlined in the pages cannot be skipped or missed. So will this system help me learn all of htis material and retain it a very high skill level?? Please help.

When you get the course you'll have to go and do all the exercises and work with the course as you go along. You'll not be asked to spend more than 40 minutes with any one exercise. On of the important things you learn with the course is chunking. Doing the work for about 30 minutes and then taking a break. So it doesn't matter if you have a short attention span.

The books that you have for your courses will take considerable time to learn from no matter what technique you apply. Photoreading will allow you to spend less time reading and pulling more of the information out of the book. Realisticly you'll not "memorise" everything in the books. You'll learn how to use the information in the books. Along with mind mapping, proper study habits you'll will be able draw out all the important information from the books.

One recommendation is to learn the photoreading system seperately from your current course. Once you understand how the system works you'll be able use it with the course with ease. To try and combine learning photoreading and the learning that is required as part of your course may become rather overwhelming. See photoreading as a seperate course while you are learning it. Once you understand how it works you can start using it on your computer courses.

what level of comprehension can i expect?? At this point form reading some of the material, it seems to be quite filled with nothing but facts and not much filler. It seems to require quite a bit of memorizing commands and configurations. Has anyone used PR to learn in the computer field?? Is it possible to really learn all this with PR and maintain a very high level of comprehension and retention??
