1.
Start by identifying the primary sources for your exam material. You may want to ask your professor about what will be relevant. This could be lecture materials such as PowerPoint presentations, your textbook, or a combination.
2.
Decide whether you prefer taking notes digitally or on paper. Some find the speed and clarity of digital note-taking beneficial, while others take the material in outstandingly when they write manually in a traditional way.
3.
Before diving into note-taking, skim through a topic/chapter to grasp the main concepts and organise your thoughts on how the notes could be structured. This mental outline will guide your note-taking process.
4.
Begin your notes with a clear heading for each topic/chapter. Break down the information into concise points rather than writing lengthy paragraphs. Bullet points, numbered lists, and short concrete statements should become your best friend. You do not want to rewrite a book.
5.
Leave enough space between points. This not only improves the aesthetics of your notes but also makes it easier for your brain to process information.
6.
Colour-code your notes to highlight important concepts. This visual cue can make key information stand out, aiding in quick recall during revision.
7.
Wrap up your notes with a brief summary. This will reinforce your understanding and serve as a quick reference guide later.
