I've been a reader all my life. Like many outcasts, books were my friends, they wouldn't reject me or hurt me, and so I got to be a very good reader, not just in speed but in depth. Often, when I'm reading something critically, I'll be looking for what the author is not saying as much as what he is saying.
So it's really not a surprise to me that when I took a speed reading test, I came out above average, but just how above average kinda makes my jaw drop.
So. Yeah. Should I feel accomplished or something? Because what I feel is sorta sad.
Edit: And now I feel kinda big headed too, since I thought my score was going to be in that infographic. Well. I read at about 637 words per minute, which is 155% the national average.
