So a friend of mine posted the results of a reading speed test on her Plurk account, and I couldn’t resist trying it out. You can try it here too:

According to the test, I read 546 words per minute. That means:
- My reading speed is somewhere between the reading speed of average college students and high level executives
- I can apparently read War and Peace in 17 hours and 56 minutes.
- I can read 7.2 books on Kindle before recharging.
- I apparently read more slowly than I thought.
What’s your reading speed? Is it what you expected?

I did lousy. But, I am half asleep, it’s 1AM and I have a 13 hr day tomorrow that I’m dreading. I should have waited to check out the test another day, I guess. 🙂
Post those results too :))
Oh, gosh… I just saw this reply. I don’t remember what the score was, but it was definitely under 300. (Told you it was bad!)
I think it’s because you enjoy the words more. 🙂
