Take notes

What's the best way take notes for a levels. Ngl I'm not really good at taking notes on tablets or laptop I found it it's not for me. Any advice on how to improve my notes

Hi @O.L.
I'm not a big fan of taking notes on my laptop either.
What I used to do at A Level was to take everything down by hand. I used to have an A4 ring binder folder for each subject (sometimes I had a few per subject if there were lots of different topics/different exam categories). I would take notes on notebook paper during lessons and would keep hold of any work sheets or hand outs.
My class notes would be rough and plain, but I made sure I got everything down that I needed. And then when I had some spare time - form group time, free periods, time at home, etc. - I would neaten up my notes or copy them up onto revision material. This helped me to quickly recap what I'd learned that day, but also helped with revision later on as I already had some resources made.
Everything would end up in my folders and I could refer back to these later on. I would also vary my note taking style from bullet points to spider diagrams, and would always try to find ways to abbreviate my notes so I was writing as little as possible. The last thing I wanted was to spend the whole lesson copying what my teacher had written.
I hope this helps. 🙂
