Photoreading would be very benificial for the CPA exam however if i were you i would plan way ahead. The reason it would be very benificial to you is because you would have the information on both a conscious and other than conscious level.
The key word here is layers. Getting the big picture first and then breaking down the information to smaller parts.
The brain works best working from whole to parts. The brain does not work well getting some fragmented isolated part. Get the big picture first and break it down.
Don't do marathon studying sessions. Study for 20 minutes then take a 5 minute break. After 90 minutes of study take a 15 minute break.
When i said earlier about planning way ahead what i meant was the very first day of class is when you should have started preparing for the CPA exam.
