Shnayim Mikra with Chazan

Can one fulfil one of the readings of shnayim mikra by reading along quietly with the baal koreh on Shabbos morning during leining?

Answer:

This can be done, and many do it.

Although some poskim write that one should preferably remain silent during the reading, the Mishnah Berurah (285:14) writes that it is fine to read quietly with the baal korei (see also Aruch Hashulchan 285:3).

Note that there is a special virtue of completing shnayim mikra on Friday.
