CRCB ch.4 summary

comprehension should be your main reading goal, not how fast you read. develop a general study schedule that shows specifically when you plan to study for each class and for how long. choose the times you study based on when you are most alert, and determine the length of each study session using your reading averages for the subjects you are taking. some classes will require more hours of study than others, and the amounts of time you need to set aside can vary from week to week depending on the complexity of the material for a specific course.

Track you reading rates so you can create daily reading plans that set realistic goals for your classes each week. after using a study schedule and daily readings plans for several weeks, you will find that you begin to complete your reading assignments on time. your reading comprehension will also improve, and you nay even read a little faster. the reading tips suggested in this chapter that will contribute to your becoming a more efficient reader are: reading quickly when appropriate, skimming, regressing or rereading, subvocalizing, pacing.
