When I read a book word for word I know for a fact that I have at the very least taken every word of the book in and taken notes on the things I find most important but with photoreading there is no guarantee that I have absorbed all of the information.

I would feel the need to read the book the old fashioned way just to make sure there weren't things I missed.

You will never ever absorb all the information that's included in a book regardless of what technique you use.

Honestly, in the 5 step process of photo reading I find only the steps 1,2,4,5 to be very useful.

I guess you need to focus on improving your study skills if you want tangible results.
