Seriously, good notes are a game changer!<\/p>\n<h2>&#8220;How to Take Notes&#8221; Video Transcript:<\/h2>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em><br \/>\nHello, welcome.<\/p>\n<p>Today we are going to be talking about how to take good notes.<\/p>\n<p>Now, if you&#8217;d like to continue learning and getting even more videos about topics like this, make sure you like this video and subscribe to this channel.<\/p>\n<p>All right, let&#8217;s get down to business.<\/p>\n<p>Tip number 1 is to record the information somehow.<\/p>\n<p>Now, a lot of people kind of take the approach that, oh, they&#8217;re gonna remember every single thing they hear in class.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t worry, my memory is amazing. I don&#8217;t need to take notes, I&#8217;m just gonna sit here and absorb.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, that at some point is gonna come back to bite you. And you don&#8217;t want that at some point to be during your test.<\/p>\n<p>So, please find a way that works for you to record the information that you hear in your class.<\/p>\n<p>Now, for me and my learning style, I find that writing things down really helps.<\/p>\n<p>I can either write by hand or if there&#8217;s a really high volume of information coming at me sometimes I find that typing is better because I get more stream of consciousness words down on the page.<\/p>\n<p>For other people and other learning styles this might look different.<\/p>\n<p>So if you are an auditory learner for example, see if you can record at the lecture so that you can listen back to it when you&#8217;re studying.<\/p>\n<p>Or if you are a visual learner, sketch notes might be better for you.<\/p>\n<p>So those are notes that include doodles and pictures to help illustrate the concepts along with maybe some words for context.<\/p>\n<p>Whatever it is, figure out what&#8217;s going to work best for you, and get the information down.<\/p>\n<p>Tip number 2 is that you can be really sloppy in your notes, and that that is 100% okay.<\/p>\n<p>You are the person that needs to read and understand them.<\/p>\n<p>So don&#8217;t worry about them being 100% Pinterest perfect, you&#8217;re just trying to get that information down.<\/p>\n<p>To aid in this you can use abbreviations like, for example, George Washington can become GW.<\/p>\n<p>Or you can use symbols like if you&#8217;re trying to say increase a whole bunch of times in your notes, you can just throw an up arrow in.<\/p>\n<p>Whatever it is that&#8217;s gonna help you put down that information more quickly is what you should use.<\/p>\n<p>And if you tend to use a lot of abbreviations, your whole page is just GWs, and RSAs, and KM&#8217;s, then you&#8217;re probably gonna wanna create a little key for yourself.<\/p>\n<p>So that when you go back to look at your notes, you&#8217;ll actually remember what those mean.<\/p>\n<p>Basically, you&#8217;re going for speed here.<\/p>\n<p>You wanna get the information down as fast as the teacher is talking about it so that you&#8217;re not writing down stuff that they said at the very beginning of class, and now it&#8217;s the middle of class and you&#8217;re lost.<\/p>\n<p>And now for a word from our sponsor.<\/p>\n<p>This video is brought to you today by Magoosh.<\/p>\n<p>Magoosh is online test prep that makes studying for standardized tests accessible, effective and enjoyable.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s awesome.<\/p>\n<p>They teach a lot of different tests, including the SAT, ACT, GRE, GMAT, LSAT, MCAT, TOEFL, IELTS, Praxis.<\/p>\n<p>Probably ones that I am even forgetting right now.<\/p>\n<p>So the next time you have a standardized test to study for, check out Magoosh.<br \/>\nYou can find out more by going to magoosh.com\/youtube or checking out the link in the description, below.<\/p>\n<p>Magoosh is the shortest distance between you and an acceptance letter.<\/p>\n<p>[SOUND] Tip number 3 is to pay attention to what your teacher is emphasizing.<\/p>\n<p>Because, believe it or not, your teacher or professor wants you to get a really good grade.<\/p>\n<p>They are trying to point you to the information that is most important.<\/p>\n<p>So, how does a teacher emphasize something?<\/p>\n<p>They might say it a few times. They might underline it.<\/p>\n<p>They might talk about it in a specifically, emotional way.<\/p>\n<p>Whatever this is, keep an ear out for it in class and make sure that you&#8217;re starring that information in your notes.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re concerned that you don&#8217;t know what the most important information is, even by the end of the lecture, you can approach your teacher or professor and ask them.<\/p>\n<p>Tell them what you identified as the biggest key take-aways of what they said in the class that day.<\/p>\n<p>And see if that matches up with what they think that the key take-aways are.<\/p>\n<p>Your teacher is there to help you and honestly they&#8217;re probably going to be really impressed that you took the time to figure out what the most important thing they were trying to say was.<\/p>\n<p>Tip number 4 is to use an outline when you take your notes.<\/p>\n<p>So that&#8217;s a header with subpoints or maybe sub-subpoints.<\/p>\n<p>And that&#8217;s as opposed to just doing just a giant text block.<\/p>\n<p>Taking the time to make an outline when you&#8217;re taking your notes is gonna help you a lot in the review process.<\/p>\n<p>So that you understand what information was connected to what other information etc, etc.<\/p>\n<p>As opposed to just approaching this big block of text and not being certain about what you meant, or what&#8217;s connected.<\/p>\n<p>Take the time to do an outline the first time.<\/p>\n<p>Tip number 5 is to go shopping, and obviously, this is the most important and serious tip of all of them.<\/p>\n<p>Not really, but I think that honestly, if you have a little bit of spare change, going shopping and buying some materials that you really enjoy.<\/p>\n<p>Some pens, notebooks that you find really cool, can be very satisfying, very motivating, and might get your butt in the seat faster to study.<\/p>\n<p>If you think that that will be the case for you, then I am giving you permission to go hog wild at Staples and buy the school supplies of your dreams.<\/p>\n<p>This has been tip 5.<\/p>\n<p>Tip number 6 is to keep your notes separated by class.<\/p>\n<p>Okay, so you just went to Staples because of tip 5.<\/p>\n<p>Make sure that you&#8217;re buying individual notebooks or one of those big notebooks with the dividers between the sections so that all of your notes are not in one place.<\/p>\n<p>You don&#8217;t want your bio notes with your Shakespeare notes, with your art class notes.<\/p>\n<p>Because then when you go back to study them, it&#8217;s gonna be a nightmare trying to find what you need to study.<\/p>\n<p>Tip number 7 is to study your notes.<\/p>\n<p>Honestly, a lot of times people forget about this.<\/p>\n<p>You write your notes the first time in class and that cements the information.<\/p>\n<p>But people forget to take their notes back out when it&#8217;s study time and use them to study for their midterm or their final.<\/p>\n<p>Your notes are really, really gonna help you because they&#8217;re gonna condense what you learned in class as opposed to just what&#8217;s in the textbook.<\/p>\n<p>So make sure you study your notes.<\/p>\n<p>Tip number 8 is that when you study your notes, this is the time to get nice and aesthetic with them.<\/p>\n<p>So you&#8217;re pulling out your notes that earlier I told you to make as messy as possible so you could write them as fast as possible.<\/p>\n<p>And now&#8217;s the time to get kind of Pinterest-perfect and Instagram-worthy with them.<\/p>\n<p>So you can go through and use your beautiful series of highlighters to highlight the most important information.<\/p>\n<p>You can rewrite information in different colors using a different color for each key piece of information.<\/p>\n<p>For example, different colors for dates, different colors for names, for formulas.<\/p>\n<p>All of this will make it a lot easier for you to rescan through your notes and find the most important information that you&#8217;re studying at the time.<\/p>\n<p>And it can also help you remember the information.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes when I&#8217;m trying to think back to something I can remember oh yeah, I highlighted that in purple on the second page of my notes.<\/p>\n<p>You can also rewrite your notes.<\/p>\n<p>You can try putting them in a different format like a mind map.<\/p>\n<p>Reorganizing and rewriting your notes can really help you remember them better.<\/p>\n<p>And if you want some inspiration, you type mind map into Pinterest.<\/p>\n<p>Or study blur into Google image search and find really, really beautiful notes that other people have taken.<\/p>\n<p>All right, those are all the tips I have for you today.<\/p>\n<p>Please like this video if it helped you.<\/p>\n<p>I wanna know because I wanna know what kinds of videos I should make in the future.<\/p>\n<p>Also if you have any other good note-taking tips please leave them in the comments below so that the other viewers can also get the benefit of your knowledge.<\/p>\n<p>All right, happy note-taking and I&#8217;ll see you in the next video.<br \/>\n<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2>Want more Study Tips?<\/h2>\n<p>Ready for more?
