Note taking for GCSE help

Hi does anyone know how to organize/structure notes for each subject.
Like what sub headings and sections and what are the key ideas i need to know.
Especially with History, Religious and English

It depends where your at rn..Tbh I dont reccomend taking notes at this stage since it will take time for you to practice on them but heres some advice:
For the subjects you mentioned I think Mindmaps are the best you can do a mindmap for each key topic (if you want to make it useful highlight the areas your weak in) - you can then use this for Blurting
But if you want more structured notes you should use the cornell method which you can search up but essentially
Outline the heading and then write the topic questions on one side and key information in a box beside it - sort of like flashcards but instead its summarized notes - this is useful for Quotes and analysis
This is what I think would be best. Hope that helped!!
