evaluating my readin

The first time i took a speed reading test from reader's edge, it was online and my wpm was over 300. That was after practicing with acereader pro, mostly playing their games. Prior to that, my effective reading rate was about 201.

Anyway, when i downloaded the program 2 days later, my initial reading rate with reader's edge was 275 with 100% comprehension, 325 with 75%, 324 with 100% comprehension and 280wpm with 100% comprehension.
After a week of going through 41% of their material, doing the recognition, motility, horizontal and vertical excerices, i take a comprehension test and my rate is 266 with 100% comprehension. So my comprehension level is the same but my rate is down. The report generated by the program shows a downward trend.

Should i have gone with my gut feeling and ordered acereader pro considering the fact that i tried increased my rate from 200 to 300+ in just a nights use? Right now, i'll keep doing the exercises daily for the next whatever days on the reader's edge and see how i do. if i continue to go down, i'll certainly take advantage of the moneyback guarantee and try acereaderpro instead.
