<p>I usually read through the chapter we'll be covering in class the night before, and highlight anything I think might be important and write any questions I have about the text, in the margins. After class, I read through the chapter again.</p>
<p>Do any of you have some tips that could help me be more efficient?</p>
<p>Outlining the chapter? I always understood things better if it was in my own handwriting (maybe it's just me).</p>
<p>Dartmouth's academic skills center does have excellent suggestions to help students with their study habits.</p>

<p>Cornell has has a great notetaking and studying system (Dartmouth references Cornell's notetaking system talks on their site). </p>
<p>Props to parent poster Originaloog who brought this to our attention</p>
<p>RIT's website really does a great job on Cornell's notetaking system</p>
