I'm starting year 12 and I never really took notes for GCSEs - just read and re-read the textbooks, and I turned out fine.
However, my teachers are telling me to take noes for all of my subjects, and I can't get the hang of it - I end up copying most of the textbook down - if I revise from my notes, I'll need most of the details, and if I don't, what's the point of making notes?!!
So... can someone maybe summarise this, just as an example? even if you just summarise a couple of lines, it will be helpful.
I realise that this is a lot to ask for, but I genuinely have no idea how to make notes and how to figure out what is important
