Default Re: Reading speed

I read as fast as my imagination can keep up. It's not uncommon for me to go back and read a paragraph if I suspect to sleep reading. In grade school I was given this massive 3-day course on studying, and one of the main things they demonstrated how to avoid sleep-reading.

So basically if I start thinking about other things I won't realize it for half a page so I just go back to where I remember from.

I really, really hate dense textbooks. I have the luxury of mostly good textbooks this year. But My Discrete Math textbook is the most boring pile of crap I've ever read. Thankfully it has a lot of examples.
