Note-Taking Skills

The average person forgets at least half of what she learns within 24 hours of learning it. This explains why on Friday you cannot answer the teacher's questions about the material he covered last Monday. Does that mean you are doomed to failure or low grades? Not at all. Taking notes will help you recall the material you read or heard in lecture. Note-taking is a valuable skill which you can practice and perfect.
