RECENT RESULTS
In recent corporate courses the average beginning speed
has been 255 words per minute. At the end of the five day course the average
speed has increased to 793 words per minute. An increase of over 3 to 1, and
with increased comprehension, concentration and recall. Thirty days after
the course the average speed has increased another 25% - to over 1,000 words
per minute - with no additional training.
The individual increase in reading speed has varied from
2.7 times faster up to 4.1 times faster.
Some individuals with higher starting speeds have exceeded
1,000 w/m with ease.
Increasing reading speed from 255 w/m to over 1,000 w/m
cuts the time required to read the average 300 page book from over 6 1/2
hours to 1 1/2 hours. A tremendous saving for today's busy executives.
Especially when one considers the increased comprehension and recall.
