Become more systematic in your activation approach. State a question or 2 then dive in with superreading and dipping - answer the questions - mind map when you find the answers or "part there of" - once you start mind mapping more information often comes along. Cycle with more questions. Do this in 15 to 30 minute blocks, take regular breaks to allow the mind to integrate the information. Focus on the questions that will be asked in the test. Work a chapter at a time until it gels. 20 to 50 trigger words seems to indicate that you are spending too much time in the preview.
If you're not mind mapping and not asking questions you're not being active with the text therefore you are being a passive reader, not active, and activation will take longer.
Also quit looking for a certain feeling and go with what is you're placing blocks into the process by saying how you think it should feel and not going with what is. PhotoReading isn't going to magically do it, you do and it isn't a system of rules how it's supposed to feel. That is different for everyone. Go with the flow and just answer two to three questions at a time, mind map and notice what your experience is not what you 'think' it should be.
