Hello,

To best prepare for my exams, I would like to know how to practice speed reading (reading quickly and efficiently). What do you think of the Kontre Kourant method? I'm hesitant to invest in the preparation because it's over €200. I would first like to get some advice. I have invested too much in training that has actually brought me nothing.. Thank you for your feedback.

Have a nice day.

Isabelle.

Hello.

Avoid spending money unnecessarily on all those bullsh*t methods that are rampant on the internet and social networks (Facebook, YouTube, and the like), it's all a scam.

All these methods to get rich quickly, read quickly, make a lot of money considering all the suckers who believe in them and pay, sorry to ruin the mood but:

IT'S ALL A SCAM.

See this video which will explain how these companies and their leaders operate.

Have a good day.

Hello,

The best way to memorize is through manual copying, either partial or complete.

Hello,

I had a classmate in college who annoyed us because he memorized everything, even though there was a lot to learn.

One day, he was absent and asked what he needed to study to prepare for the next day's lab, and out of frustration, someone replied the pages 48 to 53 of the logarithm table to 5 decimal places: the next day, he knew them, but he wasn't any better than the others and was even somewhat worse due to this "servile" learning.

The ability to read and understand quickly varies from person to person, but it is commonly accepted that the average human cannot textually memorize too much information.

This means that the only way to proceed is to read everything at one's own pace, but to learn to differentiate what is fluff or what is relevant to us (and not necessarily to others) so that we ultimately memorize only an outline or a summary.
