I am doing an experiment to see if I can improve my chess by using accelerative learning methods promoted by this board.

Photoreading as applied to chess
Direct learning using books
and using a chess browser to go through games at high speed/varing speeds

and obviously playing and solving puzzles

Also, I am using the borrowed genius exercises using past world champions.

I am around 1500-1600 elo presently.
I shall report in a month to see whether the methods work.
