. As I began reading it, the author instructed me to stop reading and take account of my current reading speed. I timed myself and found out I currently read 120 words per minute. My current recall and understanding is pretty decent, although I'm not sure how to measure and put a number on that. Overall, I'm pretty excited about this book. The book claims that after finishing the program, one is able to increase reading speed to 1000 words per minute, or 3 times faster, whichever is greater. The book also claims that the average reader of the book increases reading speed 7% to 12%. We'll see how this goes. I'd like very much to be able to read at least 300 words per minute with about the same recall.Since I only got to this first exercise, I don't know what the other reading strategies are that the author Wade Cutler uses in the book. I'm sure there are various ways to improve your reading skills, and I'm sure there are other people out there that would like to know some reading tips, so as I read more of this book, I will be sure to post what I learn about speedreading.
