Valuable, but vauge
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
My reading speed shot up from 143 words per minute to 450 in the first 10 minutes of doing the program. This book offers valuable tools on time manegement and note taking useful to any student in any realm. In order to reach supersonic speeds when reading, the book claims you must take information out of order. Unfortunately, it never explains how you should go about conditioning yourself to do so. However, this book is worth investing in even if only for its study skills section alone! 4 stars!
