I took 5 tests to get an average.
I always knew I was a quick reader but was super impressed to see I got a score of just about 800WPM.
I'm curious what other people's results would be?
Also, some thoughts that I can imagine affect this would be, from how young have you been reading? at this point in your life, how many books do you read a week?

I read a 400 page book over shabbos.
From wed night to Shabbos morning I read the entire Ami packet.*

I’m a huge bookworm. But bh don’t always have time to read.

*
And some articles from the regular ami, not everything.

I always hated reading. I remember taking books out of the library in third grade and never reading them.(The school’s library) I must’ve been around fifth grade or between fifth grade and seventh grade and my younger sister got me into reading since then I can’t stop. I cannot put a book down.

Wow! That's pretty awesome!
I'm curious what your comprehension is at that level.
I can read quicker as well, but I find I land up missing things.
So, for example if I'm reading a novel it just helps me move along quicker but if I"m reading something that requires more concentration I'll need to slow down.

If it’s very interesting book, then I’ll like Read it and sometimes I’ll have to go back but usually I don’t go back. It’s like a boring book. I’ll skip like a couple lines or paragraphs.

My average speed is 237.
But I'm dyslexic. So I think that's pretty good acutally.

This is really interesting because if you google the average reading speed is between 200-300, I wonder if as Jewish people we skew the results a bit.

339 with 67%.
I've always been the slow reader and would repeat read the same books as the info doesn't stay in my head. Still haven't read all the family favourite and old classic tween books, they never interested me.
