I need to learn how to speed read. The university I attend is offering a 4 day class and is guaranteed to up your reading speed by 2-3x faster and remember everything you read. Makes you read faster and understand better, kinda wild and hard to believe. Anyway, anyone speed read or take any programs for it? My university is offering a 4-day program at $270 which is well over my budget.
Here's the benefits from the program "When you complete the Speed Reading and Study Strategies Program, you will read your textbooks two to three times faster. In easier reading materials, like novels, magazines, and newspapers, you will learn to read three to four times faster. You will understand and retain information better, even while reading at these higher speeds. In addition, you will be able to prepare for tests efficiently, without excessive reading."
