Forums IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ PhotoReading, Memory Optimizer Help!!!

Wow. I can't believe I've gotten into this situation. But, I have an important test coming up on Saturday. I've had the Photoreading book for a long time now. And, I've tested the procedure a few times with moderate success. I'm wondering from someone out there if the amount of time I have is enough to digest the information in a huge textbook and do well enough to pass this test. It's a tax course and one barrier has been how boring the book is.

Anyway, I'm willing to dive into photoreading in a live test of it's capability. If there is any help out there, or any advice, I thank you in advance.

Well, later tonight I'll start by photoreading the entire text book. Then, I plan to photoread it 2x per day - morning and night. I'll be creating one or more mind maps. And, I'll incorporate regular study methods such as flash cards and practice test questions as activation.

The thing that got me on the reading (regular) was the denseness of the textbook. It's a tax textbook that is super boring. Regular reading of this book was torturous.

Anyway, I've posted to this board many moons ago. And, I'm hoping to get a little input from anyone who has had success in a short time frame like this.

Gozel,

I trust you have some general ideas of what the exam will be about or asking.

In the time that you have you will definately want to PhotoRead the book a couple of times. And you will also want to do spot activation. Here and there in the book. I don't know how successful you will be with this suggestion as it will depend on you own trust for your own body mind connection.

For activation look at a chapter and ask will this be on the test, yes or no. Depending on your own signals I cannot tell you what they should be and I am expecting that you have learned a yes no response from your mind and have used that in areas other than PhotoReading. If not listen closely what's the first thing you hear yes or no. If you're visual you might have green or red flashing in your mind or it might be a symbol like a circle for no and sissors for yes. Body reaction, tingle in the right hand may mean yes (or no) for you.

If the answer is no let it go trust that you mind will come up with some answer if it does show up in the test. For yes activate that chapter. Make a mental note of the chapter heading/suject and hold that in your mind along with a question in mind like 'what do I need to know in this chapter in order to pass the test with my best passing grade?" Superread and dip, mind map what you've dipped. Remember it is important to be able to recall the chapter heading/subject as you do this as your purpose becomes the reason for activating this chapter.

If you activate with 3 x 20 minute blocks a day between now you should manage 3 to 4 hours and have about 9 mind maps. (make notes if you don't mind map) Naturally you do have the option of doing more activation than an hours worth a day.

I agree tax is a dense subject and changes every year.

Thanks, Alex.

I will take your advice.

I have a pretty good idea of what is going to be on the test. But, I don't now feel like I have much retention on what I read in the textbook (I didn't do all the reading assignments). And, I am responsible for 600+ pages of the most boring stuff you can imagine. (If anyone ever needs a sleep aid, I can lend you this book.)
