Howdy,

I scored a little over 40k on this, and did well on other verbal tests for the general population when I was still taking tests.

I attribute much of my facility to 1)reading fantasy and 2)looking up words I don't know. Since I loathe interrupting the flow of a story, I read with a pencil and make a list of words to batch learning later.

Best,



I filled pages of word lists while reading Cryptonomicon. It was amazing.
