For review

Once you have done all of the above, you’ll find you have created your own personalized study guide. Cover the main sections of the page and use the key words and questions in the left margin as a quiz.

Stick to it              

Review your notes the day you take them and all your notes once a week. That way, you won’t need to study as much when it is test time. You have been doing the work all along.

Try out the Cornell note system, but if that doesn’t work for you, experiment with other methods. Ask your classmates how they take notes or ask a teacher for advice. Taking good notes requires practice, like any other skill. And the more you work at it now, the more prepared you’ll be to take notes in college.

       Choose the Right!!!
