Competent note takers write only the key points, facts, definitions or concepts. Elaborate on your notes withing a few hours of the class. Ask for help if required.

Make sure you are not confusing recognition with remembering.

Always attend class regularly. You will learn more and it is good practice for the world of work.

Allow us to divide a large amount of material into smaller more manageable portions. Make sure your study group does not degenerate into mere socialising. 

Make sure you get enough sleep everyday. Sleep consolidates learning.
