If you went through the course 12 times in 2 months that means you where going through the course, 1 1/2 a week. That means if you did the exersises you spent about 3-4 everyday for two months learning the system. I think you may have made a mistake with one of the steps, because i have never seen a person with as much persistance as yourself not succeed in photoreading. I would try again if i where you, but this time ask questions on the forum any place where you feel unconfrtrouble.
