But if you're totally serious, no, it's not worth bothering to take notes
. During the driving lessons they will show you how to do the maneuvers required and generally how to drive safely. Each lesson you will do roughly the same things and it will become habitual, notes won't help with something so practical (it's like riding a bike, swimming, playing tennis etc, you wouldn't make notes of all the moves/rules/good practice) you just learn through making the same mistakes with someone there helping correct them until one day you are driving perfectly and have practiced the required maneuvers enough times that you go and pass the test. It's a procedure really, and most people who fail the test only fail because either they haven't actually had a proper driving instructor tell them they are ready or they are nervous on the day and make a mistake.
