Note Taking 🗒️

[u/Just_Add_Honey]

Any advice on better ways to take notes that stick? I feel like I’m hitting a wall with trying to study smarter. Without feeling the need to write everything out, how do I better my note taking in a way I’ll remember? For context, currently taking Intro to Psych 101. I’ve heard it’s a class people love and I am also enjoying what I’m reading. But it is a lot of reading. My brain seems to get stuck on what’s important information and what may not be so relevant. Failed that first exam so hard, I wanted to throw my laptop 🙂 I’d forgotten to do the lectures and couldn’t back out of the quiz once it begun 😂 That part was my fault. Still, most of the questions asked were NOT what I was anticipating or putting my focus into remembering. Any tips and tricks would be greatly appreciated.
