Five Quick Tips For Better Notes

Preview the reading. Spend 1-2 minutes and skim through the material. Look at headings to see what the major concepts will be. Use these to help check your understanding by turning the heading into a question.

Jot down facts that are new to you. (terms, dates, names, etc.). By making a short note of these you are actually building yourself a custom study tool to work on memorization for the exam. If you don’t make note of them, how will you ever know what you need to memorize?

Look for cues in the text. Words like “3 steps to…”, bold words, or italicized words can indicate important information.

Make note of questions you have about concepts. Just make a note, flag it as a question, and keep moving. This keeps you from getting stuck on one thing for too long, but you also won’t forget it was fuzzy. You’ll be able to come back later and decide if it does make sense after reviewing more of the resource or if you need to dig back into the area.

Build your notes in question/answer form. Use the objectives and/or headings to give you some starting questions and work to answer them in your own words. These also convert really well on quizlet.com for easy review.

Fata Morgana

a superior mirage caused by warm air resting on patches of colder air in an atmospheric duct that acts like a refracting lens. Objects on the horizon could appear to be mirrored, distorted, or float. This form of mirage could be the reason for the Flying Dutchman Legend.

i love my desk man.

hey to all my friends

who faded away

without letting me know

because

i am glad i did not have to bear with the pain of letting you go

i was observing but hey wait a sec now i think that it was abrupt but

i am back to my safe place and i feel like it was so soft and so slow that you left with no memories

to the one who was my first friend - i am sorry for blaming you for leaving me but i left you too

to the ones who were my next - thank you for not leaving me in a shock but i am sad for sure.

yes. my love is changed. you do not hold the same position in my heart like you used to and i am not sorry for that. sorry for nothing. but i still love you. i dont mean it but its coming from my heart so i guess its true.

love.

and just like that one more chapter is over from the book of my life. he came, we grew together, i am transformed into someone else and i feel better and actually positive about it. i do miss him but it must have happened for the good.

he always said "we have met for a reason" and i always said "you should stay for a long time (atleast until i achieve something)"

read this quote on pinterest and it blew my mind - your thoughts are listening to you, what are you?

sooooooo a new chapter starts today and we work and work hard and harder because "we can be anyone" and "we can achieve if we want to" and because "everyday can be a new beginning" and because "either you are sad and do nothing or you are sad and keep working" and also because "no body in this world cares if you are sad or happy" and because "a pen and paper can fix things" and because "if your position is lower in your eyes then how do you imagine to achieve higher position?" and because "solve everything learn everything" and because "comes from here" and because he was done with me and my mood swings and not working hard to call him my mentor and because "its over" and maybe because he never really wanted to be with me and i was just forcing him and maybe because "dont forget me avs because i came back to physics after i met you" and because "my smol avs" and because "pat"
