Is speed reading bullshit ?

And I dont mean improving from 200-250 wpm to 500-600 wpm max, I mean those who claim you can read 1000+ wpm without losing comprehension (or even improving it).

Also what about skimming ?

Do you think it is useful, for example, to study for college ?

So you first skim the text and then you slow read it. I heard it improves your comprehension.

It was useful pre-computers if you were looking for something in a large source of texts, but now that's negligible with how you can find most large research documents and other documents online and just F3 keywords.

If you're reading something for non-trivial intellectual purposes (philosophy, history, literature, ect) proficiency should be far more emphasized over speed. I never met or heard of a person actually speed-reading multiple books and sources for a subject and acquiring a somewhat meaningful proficiency in understanding it.

Really? That's usually where I'd speed read the most. Sure, I'd make sure to comprehend it, but with novels I tend to take my time, because the brain is working overtime to construct scenery, props, characters' faces, voices, builds...

Notes and intellectual musings are a bit more taxing in other ways, but requires fewer imaginary constructs, so processor power doesn't lag.

So to speak.
