I didn't realize that people thought it was a waste of time to rewrite your notes, I ALWAYS rewrote my notes, even if it's studies for my personal use, if it's something I want to remember, I make a note of it, and then I'll write it in a more organized manner because most times during lectures it's a quick jot of the "idea" and not the full concept. Plus, it always gave me yet another chance to review whatever I was learning, the more times it was written or reviewed, the more likely it is that when it came to practical application or tests, I knew the content. But I also know a lot of people that NEVER take notes at all, no matter what we are doing.

I would rewrite notes and make quizlets of each unit to help me study. I was the quizlet girl. Because I have ADHD, I'd get too focused on rewriting my notes super pretty that I'd miss information. However the quizlet thing helped me because I could type out my notes and keep them organized without feeling like it had to be perfectly neat.

Honestly, I think pretty much anyone who says to Not rewrite notes are in 'that' group of people who are uber talented at organizing, AND able to write SMALL and neatly and quickly and never accidentally write a wrong letter/word. Everyone hates their own handwriting and thinks someone else has better writing, but "YOU" are the one who has to read those notes, not that other person who thinks your handwriting is lovely.

I use to record my lectures and after classes were done, I would listen to the lecture and rewrite my notes while listening to the lectures.

OK, first, you are anything but average...you are exceptional...and perhaps too modest to realize that just yet. Your note-taking system is very well organized and neat. That means not only does it have value for you, but could also help other students immensely. I made some decent side coin selling copies of my lecture notes when I was in college and Paramedic school. I gave away a first copy as a sample and then offered study notes for a small charge to those who wanted them. Today you could scan or photograph and send them and not even need to make hard copies...extra cash for little extra work, now there’s a good business model, huh? 😁 I hope you have a great semester!

EDIT: I'm tired of seeing emails from replies to this, so let me clarify something: I didn't say that EVERY SINGLE PERSON learns this way. I said there's a LINK and couldn't believe that people with dismiss it altogether. There's a difference between saying "rewriting notes doesn't help me" and the blanket statement that "rewriting notes is a waste of time". I'm perfectly aware that there are different styles of learning, and that those who are kinesthetic or auditory learners won't find much use in rewriting the notes. Again, I didn't say "I can't believe they said it's a waste of time. Studies show that it's the only way to learn" I said "I can't believe they said it's a waste of time. Studies show there is a link." ---- I can't believe that people say that rewriting notes is a waste of time. There have been studies that show that there is a link between repetition and writing in long-hand to memory and learning.

rewritting notes can be super useful - I used this method all the time in university. But the most important study "hack" is making past exams and tests; if the teacher doesn't provide them, ask older students about the type of questions and exercices you can expect in that discipline. Many times, teachers repeat questions or use the same examples on the exams and can make or break your grade besides, it's a great way to meet new people and make friends! :D

As a teacher I watch this type of videos to be able to recommend my students correct instructional videos how to learn for the lesson. And among the multitude of note taking videos on KZread yours is one of the best. It doesn't have anything to do with being smart when listening to the lecture, it is just the individual way of processing new information and even those students that understand immediately need to write and rewrite the notes if they want to have the information deposited in the long term memory. You are smart! Thank you for the effort of doing this video!

your handwriting is *LEGENDARY*

A tip that I like to use is take two colors that look nice together and assign them to a subject/class then use those colors only for that class for the whole year. This helps you a lot with distinguishing between classes when you’re studying for multiple tests

I agree with everything lol I GENUINELY hate it when I highlight words and because it's not dry enough, it smears... I never actually thought about highlighting before writing, I should try that lol, thanks for the tip, girl ! 😁

Ok your handwriting indeed is awesome but i can’t stand how you mix capitals with normal letters

I used to rewrite my notes when i was younger, but I've gotten to the point where I can write legibly and understand during lectures. BTW, we are both business students in University :) A tip that I have found great, is to read the chapter before lecture, and to do self study questions right after chapter, some books have it and some don't. I also, write notes in my own words when necessary, not copy them from the book, or slide presentation.You are going to do great!!!

I always watch these types of videos in hopes of changing but I never have. I take the most all over the place, messy notes ever. It’s usually a result of writing fast as I actually have decent handwriting normally but it gets sloppier and more cursive like as I speed up. I am proud to say that I use margins, really helps when I have 2 pages front and back of history notes and I’m looking for a specific year or topic.

Hi. Do you need some assistance in doing your essays, assignments, or tests? I can perfectly help you reduce some academic workload as you do other demanding duties. I have experience in nursing, economics, business, biology, mathematics, engineering, and even psychology essays and tests. I would, therefore, be glad to share my experience with you. contact me through lewispaps@gmail.com

I love the highlight first idea and adding the border. I also color-code my highlights when I'm reviewing my notes: pink is people, green is geographic info, blue is time/dates, yellow is for quotes or citations. I also have orange & purple, and I may pull one of those if the instructor says it will be on the test but I don't necessarily find that fact important. I now use the same color-coding system when annotating my books (which I don't do often, but my code is in place when I find it helpful). Thank you for the tips!

Holy crap, you have such a beautifully soft and slightly raspy tone to your voice. It's so soothing and pleasing to the ear. This video was already very nice, but your voice just elevated it wonderfully. I am taking online courses and I have a huge issue with learning during seminar. I almost always go through the book before class so that I can already have a basic understanding of what is going on before my Prof even gets ahold of me.

So appreciative of this! I’ve been using a similar technique for my notes this year, and it’s nice to see someone with a similar style! Good luck in your studies! :)

Re-writing notes is a great way to learn - it helps your brain make more connections and you usually remember the material better. Ditto for writing by hand, as opposed to taking notes on a device. Hand printing and cursive each activate different parts of the brain. Super important skills.

Omg your notes are so perfect it hurts me. God how can anyone write so perfectly!? I've been trying so hard to write that beautifully. Also re-writing notes helps your brain to reprocess the material. I rewrite all the important things in my life in multiple places and it has really helped with my ADHD.

Omg. I’m definitely going to be using your highlighting hack!!! I’m obsessed with taking notes, and always struggle with highlighters getting dirty/stained/swearing ink. And always wait til at least an hour goes by, before doing the highlighting. So thank you!!!

Writing in general helps you remember things better so rewriting, organizing and synthesizing your notes makes a lot of sense! Great video!

“Highlight first, then write.” I agree! I’m in elementary and I do use that tip! For the same reason..! By the way, my dad told me weird is special so don’t worry about people calling you weird.

i use those page flags from post-it and tbh i love them so much more than using regular paper sticky notes or page markers. usually at the beginning of the school year, i'll get out one for every textbook i have and use it to mark what page or chapter im on in my textbook so when I have to get out my book i can immediately find the page i need. i can make 1 sticky note flag last for the whole school year because they're such good quality. also, i like them just because i feel fancy and who doesn't love asserting stationary dominance

Love the highlighting tip!!! Your hard-work and dedication is commendable!

🙌🏻 I’m so glad you made this video! Even though I’m no longer a university student, I do work in a field where I have to keep up with annual guidelines and taking certifications. Thank you for this so so much especially since October 1 is the start of brand new guidelines! I do highlight and then write as well. It’s bad if I don’t. Thank you a billion times for this video! Best wishes.

Yesssss ‘rewrite notes’ squad!!!!

OH MY GOD ARE YOU KIDDING ME I literally JUST started highlighting then writing on top today!! that's crazy, It's so smart to do that lmao. I use brush pens to "highlight" and the black ink just smears and everything looks ugly. Doing it the other way around just keeps everything clean and neat though its definitely annoying guessing how much you're gonna need but I'll probably know with time just like you. So many helpful tips in this video thanks a lot

I like how simple your note taking method is. I see lots of other videos that uses so many stuffs, and implement such complicated things. Honestly it's quite overwhelming. I do think that everyone has different approach to learn faster, but in my sake, yours works the best.

I love the idea of rewriting but I have issues with my hands, so once it is. I attend online so stopping and repeating a lecture is my benefit but I am going to try the margin idea. That will keep thing more organized. Thanks!

I totally feel you about keeping up in a lecture class! I’ve always re-written my notes up to grad school. Studying now my clinical exam and appreciate your tips. Never can have too many tips!! Thanks!!

I didn't all the time when I was studying but when I did I loved re-writing notes coz not only it encourages me to revise and absorb information but also to use the different pens that I have and practice styles of calligraphy. And I think it is a good idea to highlight first, then write on top. Thanks for the tip! :)

Tbh, even though I understand my notes as I write them. Rewriting them has always had two really obvious benefits for me. The first, is that I can actually read them if I rewrite them. The second, is that it's so much easier to retain the information if you purposefully rewrite them. I find that simply rereading my notes leads me to miss things because my brain tells me "oh, you've already read this before" and I unintentionally end up skipping things. That's why I also agree with teaching yourself or a willing subject. Because sometimes they will have questions for you to try and answer and it means you may get to expand your knowledge of the subject at the same time.

During lectures I tried my best to mostly listen instead of taking notes. I realized I always had to end up teaching myself after class anyway so I gave up trying to write down as much as possible. I can't believe I never thought of putting subtopics in a sidebar!!! Thanks for the tip 😁 I also find colored pens too straining for notes so I often use them for underlining instead of highlighting. This is also good if you're stuck with thin paper and don't want bleeding 🤢

wow i love that you write your titles in the margins bc i always felt like i was the only one who did that??? when i first started to do that it kinda changed my life tbh bc it makes things easier to find but also i feel like it makes things like neater? and overall my notes feel more put together? i actually really loved this video!! i feel like im the type of person who needs to rewrite their notes in class but bc everyone told me it’s a waste of time I never did it :/// but istg this video has motivated me to start rewriting my notes

explaining things to yourself is so helpful!! i often suppose i understand everything, but when i go over things sometimes or anyone asks me anything, i realize that there are HUGE gaps in my understanding xP

When I was in college I used to record all my lectures or one on ones with my professors. Then I would listen to them while going over my recopied notes and add anything they explained that I didn't already get down onto a sticky note

Definitely going to try out that highlighter trick!

TheCoffeeMonsterzCO SOOO I TRIED IT and I’m kinda digging it 😂 For those who are curious, at first I kept messing up because either I had too much of a highlighted strip, or too little. What I did to fix this was I pretended/ghosted whatever I wanted to highlight, just to see where my writing would end of that makes sense. After trial and error, I kinda like this! The only thing is my regular ball point pens don’t work on writing over the highlighter, so I recommend the Ink Joy gel pen or I used the Pen Gems with the Uniball Hybrid ink replacement. I hope this helps anyone who is curious! :)

I really enjoyed this video. It's very helpful! Also, I've never thought of highlighting then writing over it. That's honestly a fantastic idea

I love this video, I also rewrite my notes. I always take notes on my computer during class but I can't study from my computer so I rewrite them. My classmates think I'm crazy for handwriting a summary and not typing it. What I also find useful is to watch videos about the subject on youtube if you can find some, that way you hear everything again and it is more likely to stick. My history teacher in high school used to make these videos about the subjects we saw in class and I always watched them. Also, please keep making videos like this because they make me excited to study! So thank you for that!

I love your tips and thank you so much for your imp. information. I am following this from today onward.

i always highlight FIRST and then write on top 😚🤪

Yeah me too😇

Just a tip! Muji black pens smudge very easily when used with highlighters so maybe try other brands of pens such as Sarasa and Pentel! They’re great when used with highlighters and barely smudges

It's January 2019 and I literally just subscribe to your channel for soooo many reasons,thank you for being so honest and real. 90% of the things you admit to doing I do n I felt strange but I'm not am A student so I find different ways around studying.

With rewriting notes I still regularly do this even at my age. It has helped immensely to ensure my 'plans' in regards to projects or goals are actually 100% sound, lol. I love how you wrote over the highlighting... I never once thought of doing that. Great video!

Lovely

My writing is atrocious but I can still read it 😂 I rewrite notes when I study and it always helps

LOL!! Girl when you talked about how you are in lecture! I felt that in my soul. I can relate 100%. That is legit my life story!

You are wise, practical and God love you for putting it out there why we rewrite our notes. I had to put in the work as well. Your advice - brilliant

Definitely highlight before pen.

I bought your stickers about a year ago.....had NO idea that you're from Toronto! Haha.. I live here too. Small world?

Loved this video, Helen. This first semester for me hasn’t really been a lot of note taking because my scholarship has its own core that we go through and it has no tests. But, I will for sure keep your tips in minds for next semester. I start more of my business courses and I am so pumped.

That tip about teaching it to yourself is really good! You know you understand something if you can explain it :) When I do practice exams back in college, I only retain the information for about a day or two (enough to survive the exam). But if I explained it to friends I remember the info until end of sem or even longer that I didn't have to review for it again

i got OCD looking at you writing upper case and lower case notes mixed

OCD isnt something you can get . You have it or you don't.

Me too.

If I studied with other people for me hearing the information was more effective than writing it over and over again.

Definitely personal preference! I don't study well with other people so rewriting works for me ^_^ For sure do what works for you!

I can't remember exactly when i saw this video a while back but when you said highlight first than write, I did do it and i love it!!! I unconsciously do it now and it's so easy!! Now imma take into consideration of taking practice quizzes cause boi! Do i need them! Thank you!

ty the tip where you highlight first then write after really helped me since my highlighters would always smudge

im also a first year at uoft! i definitely relate on being lost during lectures probably bc i have such a difficult time concentrating and not letting my mind wander (but i also dont tend to look at the content beforehand...). and this exam period definitely made me realize just how important rewriting notes is; it's a very effective studying tool to as you go through and really understand the material and tons of studies say writing is key for memorization.

Thank you for these helpful tips for note taking! I am currently a student in year eight. And have been thoroughly enjoying binge-watching ‘study with me’ videos. The majority of these videos made are coming from GCSE and A level students. However, I don’t believe it’s ever too early to begin revising and knuckling down. I’ve also been watching people come out of school with impressive results and I honestly just want that for myself. Which is why I am trying to keep motivated and encouraged at all times to allow me to do that and achieve the results I hope for! I was disappointed you didn’t really mention revision techniques such as creating mindmaps/diagrams. I am aware that everyone has their own ways of revising and understanding their information. But most people I know find that is a good way of representing information and categorising big paragraphs of information in a way in which Is understood better. And flash cards are fantastic for little words which you need to learn but are still important. Please nobody judge the way anyone learns. At the end of the day, if that helps then that’s the best way and you should leave people to it. Don’t ever try and change the way people find easiest. We should wish the best for each other always, and never force anybody to be any different. Sorry to ramble about what I do, but I do love this video and find it useful for someone of my age.
