You read 454 words per minute.
That makes you 82% faster than the national average.
The questions were easy - it is my favourite book!

You read 502 words per minute. That makes you 101% faster than the national average. website said: If you maintained this reading speed, you could read
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone by J.K. Rowling in 2 hours and 33 minutes Which is b  ks, mainly because i have recently read in that in well under two hours. It was the only book available to read that wasn't a romance.  As said by another poster, if i was just skimming in a "work report" style looking for grammar/speeling errors it would be much faster, if it was the first time i has read a new novel it would be about 1/2 that pace. I have consistently found that i tend to average about 80pages of a paperback/hour if it is a new book and 100/hour on a book i have read before.

I managed to read LoTR in about 12 hours, but then I wasn't expecting a test on it...

Only 234. My defence is that I tend to read in my head as if I were reading it out to someone. I could have lied, as I have read war of the worlds and knew the answers anyway...hey ho. lesson learned - having done it again I am up to 400 something.

One pass, no skimming - as directed.
