What is your reading speed???

Well, i read quite fast but i have no idea how to estimate how fast i am. that said, i can usually finish a book with about 100-300 pages in a couple of hours. But it all depends on yourself. you read fast to skim through and you read slowly to absorb it. reading should be enjoyed, which is why i think that the speed of it most probably won't matter. :)

Hello mohan. I have never counted my reading speed, but I am sure that I am a slow reader when it comes to reading because I am used to slow reading and it is hard to change my reading habit. If I read fast, I don't think that I can fully grasp the exact meaning. I love to think when I am reading. So that is the main reason for my slow reading speed. lol

i'v never counted what my reading speed is, not i'm a slower one as when i'm in my college,there are four students in our hostel,all of us like to reading,so when the weekend come,we would like to reading books together,i'm reading very slowly.sometimes,when i finish the first one which time are always they have already finished two ones.this is my bad habits.even though,i'm try to improved it,but very regret, when i read more than ten pages, the speed will be slow as usual.good luck and have a nice day!

I don't know my exact speed. But I don't hurry when I'm reading, there's no rush. I often take my time.

I've never heard of a reading speed test, but now I'm curious to find out what my reading speed is. I think it's a little on the slow side. I've always wished I could be one of those folks who could read and comprehend so quickly.

I could read very fast but it really also depends if you understand the material you are reading.

hm that is interesting. i tend to skip over passages when i am reading. especially when it is a fiction book and the paragraph is about the weather or the surrounding location.

My ex-boyfriend always teased me about how slowly I read. My thing is, I hate just rushing over the words and not comprehending anything. I'd rather read and absorb things; it helps me to make a "movie" in my mind while reading.

Hi, mohan89, I think it depends on what kind of reading materials. For example, if it is novel or story, I think the reading speed is much higher than reading textbooks or profetional books. Is that right? In addition, reading those books that written in foreign lauguage is also lower than reading books publiced by mother language. Good luck.

You know, up until this year I've never heard very much about reading speed, I have absolutely no clue what my own reading speed is. However, my daughter brings home homework this year, she is in first grade, that is supposed to test their reading speed and fluency. They are expected by the end of the school year to be able to read 40 words per minute. She has already exceeded that and is at 60 words per minute right now. This is reading out loud. For me, I don't care what my reading speed is as long as I understand what I am reading.

hi mohan89 you cant even imagime my reding speed it is like i just have to see the first word of the first line of any article and paragraph and zapppp i know everything written in it.I am a genius person ready to give tuitions about how to do this.
