Cool test to find out "What speed do you read?"

This is pretty neat. I'm slower than average, but I'm okay with that. Here are my results. 

Take the test HERE.

  • I am a slow poke at 340.
    90 books in 2015?
    image
  • Ok I remember doing this a few months ago, and I think I was around 400.  I saw the options this time, and extended the amount I had to read for a more accurate result.
    Doing that..I got 722.
    WHaaaaaaat??

  • 425, 70% faster than national average but still slower than average college students. I wonder what happens if you get the questions wrong...

    It tells you that you weren't paying attention. Slow down and try again.

    I always get War of the Worlds. I was definitely faster this time, because I already knew the context. And what the questions would be! Originally I was below average. I'll have to go look up my actual score...
    image
  • Hmm. I'm wondering how accurate this is. I took it again and got this:

    You read 449 words per minute.
    That makes you 80% faster than the national average.


    BIG difference.

    Personally, I'm waiting for the comprehension test. I am a slow reader, but I remember the tiniest details. I'll show up to book club and ask about some small passage,and no one knows what I'm talking about, even after I look it up and read it to them. :-/
