Feasibility study of this experiment:

ANALYSIS:
My strengths:
1) visualization techniques
2) visual, auditory learner
3) Good reading skills
4) Good concentration level
5) Good vision
6) Availability of all resources needed eg. books
7) Can manage time for reading

My weakness / Constraints:
1) I have soft copies of some of these books and reading on the computer screen is frustrating sometimes
2) Need some trigger to remember
3) Sometimes semi sub conscious state is unable to get in to..
4) Need some internal information management system to control flood of information.

My current reading speed with optimal memory (more than 90% ) = 300 words per min.

My photo reading speed = 900 words per min. with almost 70% retention.

words on average book page = 30 lines * 20 words per line = 600 words (It depends upon kind of book)

therefore, Time need to read one page = 40 seconds

average pages of book = 300

therefore Total time to read one book = (300*40)/60 min. = 200 min. = 3.33 hrs ~ 3.50 hrs.. approximately Of course that's a MAXIMUM TIME needed.. Nobody is going to read every word on the page.. so time would be around 2 to 2.5 hrs

All I need is to have that much time...

And I think I can do it..
