Step Two: Create
Creating notes, or note-taking, is an essential study skill. The act of taking/
creating notes helps your brain to encode and retain the material you are
studying, and of course you need to understand it. The volume of notes you
create will depend on the number of subjects, and topics within subjects, as
well as the depth of content in each. As a rough guide, if you have 28 days
to create notes for seven subjects, then you will have four days per subject.
However, some subjects may require more notes than others so you can
adjust the balance of days per notes according to your own needs. Remember
we recommend a total of 40% of your revision time for creating notes.
