Have you ever gazed at the testing issue, and wondered where on earth did he come from? You just some teachers never covers information because it is simply not in the record.

This is a common frustration. We miss things when we take note of the class. Very few people can write fast enough or could concentrate long enough to write down everything the teacher said.

As you might imagine, college lectures can stretch much longer than you have received lectures in secondary schools. In addition, they can be very detailed. For this reason, many students solve problems of missing important information by creating a personalized form of shorthand.

* Practice your specific course shortened at the beginning of the term, while your text is still new, and you are curious and waiting for information. Look for some interesting passages, and the practice of writing them in shorthand.
