I am at least a year away from the MCAT (just finished freshman year, think I want to take it end of next summer, i will have prereqs done so i think i should be prepared, but thats not the point.
I have decided to start some reading, I heard the New Yorker and the Atlantic are two good things to read. Am I just supposed to read different articles, am I supposed to try to read fast, and I supposed to just make sure I know what every word I read means or do I just casually read the article like I would anything else (when I read, I usually have to keep going back and rereading some parts). Mainly I am just asking how do I increase reading speed and comprehension? I figure I am going to get responses saying my speed and comprehension will increase by itself as I keep reading more, but if this isn't the case, I would appreciate any advice.
