What method do you use for taking notes? Let me know with a comment below. 📝

I tried both and it doesn't really matter. What's more important is whether you understand the content in the first place. I tend to read/listen to something first and try to understand without making any notes, then make notes the second time I read.

What I found most helpful personally is to just go with the flow of each class and then choose what note-taking method is the best specifically. I just look at each subject+teacher combo and adapt my method each time I'm in a new class or with a new teacher. For example, in math, obviously I end up having to take handwritten notes, cause it's more precise and less time consuming than to write equations digitally. In biology however, I write comments on my teacher's slides as there mostly are just pictures there, and most of the information I need to know for the test is what he says during lectures, so linking what he says to the slides is quite important. And then in chemistry, I find myself almost not writing notes at all, as all details are present in the PowerPoints, and I just focus on the content during lectures and do practice exercises, and then I come back home and highlight key information in the slides. I thought at first when I entered college, that I could just use the same note taking strategy all the time in all classes until I graduate, but it clearly isn't the case lmao. So what I'm saying is, just observe your classes and adapt, don't try to force a note taking method on a subject if it's not adequate for it, even if you're used to that method.

I try to do both. I prefer to type my notes due to speed as I type fast. But I always keep a notebook beside me to write down key graphs or charts. Hybrid works best for me.

I don't think taking notes is all that productive in the first place. I try to digest all of the information as a narrative first l, then go back and record key concepts. But taking notes during the narrative stage can interfere with understanding the bigger picture

this reminds me of the days i had to read paperback books, and couldn't fathom reading on an ipad. but recently, i've switched from writing notes to typing them, and reading textbooks on my ipad, and it has grown on me. at the same time, i rarely go back and review notes, so i'm also getting to a point where note taking in general is pointless. i find that repetition (listening to lectures over again, or reading textbook passages multiple times) is more optimum for me.

The TLDR here is to always use digital notes, typed for most classes, and then to organize and condense notes later using the other methods (on paper if you want) Capturing the information >>> everything else. Once you have what was said, you can organize it later. You need to devote more time to listening to teacher and processing than trying to take good notes. Good notes come AFTER lecture

Honestly I have found that the Cornell method works good for me while taking notes in meetings. I write follow-up items along the left side along with key terms or people. The problem I have with outline, study sheets, and mind mapping is that they are to difficult to do while on the fly, in meetings or lecture.

@@MyspacHor911 I agree with you on that, but while I really enjoy biology, I’m not too sure I’d pursue that as a major. I’m interested in psychology which is why I wanted to major in it. I’ve heard of many who have majored in it and gone to pa school but I’ve never had the questions answered if they were able to complete it in 4 years. Especially if they started doing a few prerequisites in freshman year. I know I would have to take extras but since psychology may not be the hardest of the hard, I could put those classes throughout the 4 years. Not to mention that psychology, sociology, statistics, and some chemistry and biology will be already covered in the psychology major.

@@andrewbarsoum6240 Finishing a degree in 4 years is a matter of where you live. If you live in a large city and go to a uni of 30,000+ students, then classes might be too full and will result in you not enrolling in the classes that you need. This is just a generalization so be sure to check with your academic advisor and your fellow classmates about this. But finishing a degree in 4 years, whether biology or psychology, is very doable.

I Got A Brain Cat Scan Last Year In July Out Of Malpractice For An Minor Allergic Reaction That Went Away On It’s Own And Then The Doctor Said I Don’t Know Why They Gave You A Cat Scan. After That I Had A Host Of Problems But The One That Concerns Me If Foamy Urine For A Year Now. I Did A Kidney Ultrasound And Urinalysis And It’s Normal. No Protein Was Found In The Urine! This Foamy Urine Is Really Bothering Me. I Also Did A Bladder Ultrasound And They Said My Prostate Was 38CC For My Age 33. I Want The Frothy Urine To Stop In Jesus Name. I Saw A Urologist And They Said They Are Clueless & Can Only Prescribe Antibiotics Smh!
