You read 507 words per minute.
That makes you 103% faster than the national average.

I got hung up on the text a couple times and went back. I find I get distracted mid sentance. Must be an ADD thing.

When I know that I'm trying to read fast, I start thinking about reading fast instead of what I'm reading.

Test is rigged...got same exact score as Nick. I also got hung up a few times and my answers to the questions were total guesses but I somehow guessed correctly.
