speed reading law school

How fast does an average lawyer read, and do you learn to read fast in law school?
I want to be a lawyer but my reading speed is not exceptional. I want to know if lawyers read rather fast compared to the rest of us, and if reading speed is taught during law school or during certain undergraduate programs. Please, if possible, cite sources.
“speed reading” is a scam and will get you to fail out of law school. It’s not how fast you can read, it’s how long and accurate you can read. If you are able to sit down and read for five hours a day, you’ll be fine in law school.
