At the test I was trying. I just went as fast as I could without thinking about it. No idea if I have a special technique.

At one point in the preparation exercises they kept showing one sentence at a time, very rapidly. Anyone able to read the whole story? I caught some sentences, but couldn't even summarize the story.

Are those EyeQ scores accurate? I'm guessing not. Mine was 865 when I read every word and over 1900 when I did a speedread.

Test yourself here... EyeQ

I thought this Infomercial was BS, then we used this program in my Educational Psychology class in college. I was amazed at how much my reading speed and retention improved.

well I suck, but I already knew that. Thankfully, the EyeQ exercises increased my speed from 300 WPM to 303 WPM. I think my problem is I have to think too much in order to comprehend what I'm reading before I move on. I could read the words a whole lot faster, but I would get nothing from what I read.

how does everyone's speed not vary wildly with circumstance?

anybody else tried this Eye Q thing all the way through, or have any links to actual controled studies done with it?
