An Overview of Note-Taking Styles
Note-taking is one of the most essential skills a student should master. It allows you to record and review information to be used in the future. But what’s the best way to do so? Here’s an overview of note-taking styles that can help you maximize your learning!
How I Study & Take Notes
hope this helps some of you as much as it helps me :)
Digital Notetaking
I always start by typing my notes in either Google Docs or One Note
I set up the document before I head to lecture that way I am prepared and ready
I use One Note because it allows for you to record the lecture in case you miss something the professor says or can’t type fast enough
Rewriting Notes
Many people may not find this helpful, but it works for me
It allows me to be creative and gives me a refresher on what I just learned
I summarize by section that way I am not writing word for word
Active Recall
This has scientifically been proven to be one of the most effective studying methods
I use flash cards (quizlet mostly) or a Google Sheet to write questions and “test myself” on the material at hand
For example, I would start off with a question like, “What is photosynthesis?” and answer the question on the flash card or Google Sheet
This helps me see what I know and don’t know with the information that I’ve taken notes on
I study these flashcards 30-40 minutes daily of every other day so that I interrupt the Forgetting Curve and won’t have to cram when it comes time for tests or exams
Mind Maps and Tests
I use mind maps to further test my knowledge on the information that I’m learning
I start with the topics of what I’m learning and write as much as I can remember about the topic. For any information I missed I fill it in with a red pen and try again another day. I do this until I miss little to no information
When learning a knee topic, I also take multiple practice tests. For math, I tend to do multiple practice problems until I can solve a problem without having to look at my notes. Asking professors for practice tests is also helpful as well
I try to study daily 30-45 minutes at minimum everyday to retain the information and make sure I don’t forget anything. I start the day I learn something in lecture.
Sometimes, I pretend I’m a teacher and teach the material to myself, not looking at my notes.
This is what works for me and hopefully it’ll help you to!

Having friends on tumblr is really great. I often refer to you guys in real life as “my friend from england/autralia/california/new york” and it makes people think I’m very well traveled when really I’ve just spent a lot of time on the Internet.
When you are going through hell, keep going…
Hermione Granger was good at school and magic because she worked hard and asked for help from her professors. She was not just naturally talented.
If you feel like you are struggling and are too shy to ask for help, remember that you can role play as Hermione Granger.
Ravenclaw: I didn't sleep enough last night.
Gryffindor: Do your ever get enough sleep?
Ravenclaw: No. I'm starting to think there is no such thing.
“I’m mad at them… But I don’t want them to be upset that I’m mad at them.”
-Ravenclaw, trying to diffuse a situation.
Hufflepuff: Hey, I'm going to grab some breakfast. Do you want anything?
Ravenclaw: Sleep replacement.
Hufflepuff: What?
Ravenclaw: Oh I mean warm bean juice.
Hufflepuff: Do you mean coffee?
Ravenclaw: Yes! Words are hard in the morning.
Ravenclaw: I have been listening to nothing but this new album for the past 48 hours… I have a problem.
Slytherin: Didn’t it only come out about 48 hours ago?
Ravenclaw: I told you, I have a problem…
Hufflepuff: How'd you sleep last night?
Ravenclaw: Sleep? Now, that's a name I've not heard in a long time.
“Oh no, I’m awake.”
- Ravenclaw at 3am
“Sometimes you need to forget about your responsibilities for a few extra minutes of sleep.”
-Bad advice from a Ravenclaw
Ravenclaw: I’m so stressed, someone end my suffering.
Slytherin: Do you want it to be quick, and do you want it to be now?
Hufflepuff: Slytherin, come on, Ravenclaw was joking!
Ravenclaw: No, no, if Slytherin is willing, yes quick, and just surprise me.
Hufflepuff: … You’re both joking, right?
Slytherin: Obviously.
Slytherin: According to this muggle movie, Headmaster McGonagall was a professor at Hogwarts before she was even born.
Ravenclaw: Yeah… The film also lacked a plot and had too many pointless characters.
Slytherin: …
Ravenclaw: …
Ravenclaw: At least the graphics were nice.
“I’m going to get up early tomorrow.”
- Ravenclaw who is not going to get up early tomorrow.
“Oh… Fuck?”
-Ravenclaw, assuming they messed something up, but they don’t know what.
