Reading to Study and Speed Reading


The main method used in reading to study is called SQ3R. Its aim is to understand the material in some depth. The method involves five simple steps, namely Survey, Question, Read, Recall and Review, in which the name came from.

  • Survey: skim through to gain an overview and not key points. 
  • Question: devise questions you hope the text will answer. 
  • Read: slowly and carefully. 
  • Recall: from memory, write down the main points made by the chapter. 
  • Review: revisit and answer the questions you first raised. Compare these to your recall and establish how well the text has answered them. Fill in any gaps by further reading

This is a tried and true way to learn. But, why not speed up the process. This is where learning valuable speed reading techniques can help you save time and absorb more material.
