About half way through the first module of Personal Chess Trainer. Module 1, unit 1 was mate in 1 problems. Module 1, unit 28 we are up to very forced mate in 4's and obscure (hard to spot) mate in 2's.
I find it interesting some of the problems I miss. Its hard to explain why I miss some problems and solve others easily. I hope to put more thought into this as I progress through the training. If I can figure out why I have difficulty spotting certain types of solutions I think it will be easier to correct the problem.

Very interesting research! Keep us informed.
That old guy with the stopwatch kind of freaks me out.
I just don't trust him.
Hi!

If you've made more progress with it, I will be interested in knowing how it affected your rating.
I tried the chess trainer and loved it!
