Flutterz Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 I've decided that since we have a typing speed topic, and this is a VN forum, we should also have a reading speed topic. http://www.readingsoft.com/ I read at 482 wpm with a 91% comprehension rate. The comprehension rate test seems a bit dodgy to me because the text is pretty easy, but whatever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maliksusanto Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 390 wpm with comprehension 82 rate. Damn.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stanleys Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 403 wpm 91% comprehension rate Not bad but it should be better for the amount I read Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nohman Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 556 words per minute. That was was me just skimming through the content, though. 91% comprehension, but like Flutterz said, the test is easy enough to infer the correct answers just from the questions/context.

Bolverk Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 I remember doing that exact test a while back, I got. 560 WPM 82% comprehension rate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mevvrynne Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 664 wpm with a 91% comprehension rate. If I was actually interested in what was in the text I think I would have a better comprehension rate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okami Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 I don't know if I should try to read it as fast as I can or just read it with the speed I normally read. So I have tried both and my result is: Normal reading: 115 WPM Fast reading: 183 WMP 91% comprehension rate I guess I am pretty slow but I prefer reading that way, if I like what am I reading I prefer reading it slowly and taking my time imagining everything that happens thoroughly.

Down Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 I vaguely looked at the text for a few seconds and took the comprehension test, which resulted in a 82% comprehension result. I have doubts regarding the legitimacy of that test. When I took the time to read at a normal speed, I did 486 wpm. I wanted to try the test in french too but it's the exact same text...

Nosebleed Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 183 wpm 82% comprehention rate I'm not surprised with the results since I've never read much and I'm a slow reader, I often backtracked while reading the text to re-check words, but i still feel powerless now when i compare this to everyone else.

Katatsumuri Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 562 wpm with 73% comprehension I like reading in general, but my usual tactic is that I usually just skim to get a big picture, and if I find something interesting, I stop and read more carefully Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
