So, what I dont understand is, after we have photoread the book, the information is processed and new neural pathways are built, so it should give us comprehension even when we read the book word for word after photoreading. Isnt it?
still it is not recommended. why?


Because if you have PhotoRead the book it is in your memory and thus you're wasting time reading everything from beginning to end. You don't need everything in a book. Most of it you probably already know superread over that during activation and focus on what you need.

If you want to waste your time reading from beginning to end, go for it. Only, students I know prefer to be doing other stuff than sitting reading books from cover to cover just to pass exams. Get what you need to pass exams and go and have a life while you're young. It's one of the reasons many students don't even open books.
