Greetings allenhm,
Like you said, both systems are similar in mentally photography the pages. I feel that looking six inches above the book and staring like you are daydreaming quickly gives me the blip page. PR is better when it comes to activation. I am able to go through easy books faster when superreading/dipping and skittering. Most of the ideas in easier books repeat themselves throughout the book so I am not missing much if I pass by during super reading. I am beginning to feel more comfortable about my ability. No real spontaneous activation has occured. But if I mind probe and ask what answer seems correct, I usually get the right one. I don't know if that is based on my previous knowledge, PRing or common sense. I believe that it is PRing. I try to PR any book that I can get my hands on even if I don't activate it. Flipping through pages for a minute or two can't hurt. Do you have any specific suggestion about using the Mental Photography system or Photoreading, allenhm?
The MCAT has been my biggest challenge. After photoreading the verbal reasoning passage, I lose accurate if I superread and dip as oppose to rapid reading. But rapid reading takes more time and we don't have a lot of time. Max 9 minutes to read and answer 6-9 questions. I have tried to read the questions before I rapid read the passage in order to send a mind probe to my inner mind, but I don't see any significant different plus i waste more time. If it was a simple "locate the answer type of test", then I would not have difficult using the super read and dip. But in these passages the author's augment may change later on. Rapid reading gives me an overview and then I can hone in on the answers. I would greatly appreciate if an employee of Learning Strategies could recommend a simple method to try or comment on mine. My exam is April 20th. Thanks in advance.
