Short notes are very important. It is one of the few techniques that few few students use in their JEE preparations. But it can bring wonders to your rank. Short notes really helped me in the last few months of my JEE preparation
Short notes help in the following ways-
- While making short notes, you are reading your class notes/books thoroughly, and then you pick up the most important points and jot them down. First of all, you are reading the book/notes thoroughly, which itself is very rewarding. Then you are rereading and writing down your important points, which is 3 times the normal revision of the most important points of the chapter.
- Making short notes will make sure that you never forget those points because those are the first thing we see when we have less time to revise for a test. And trust me, JEE is half cleared if you know those ‘important points’ well.
- Making short notes helps a lot during revision sessions, especially in class 12, when you need to revise a big topic in say, 2 hours. You can’t read the entire book. You can read the short notes and then directly go for problem-solving. Now coming to the point how to make short notes
1. Take a white page ,fold it two times of three times (according to the size of your handwriting, though the smaller is the handwriting better are the short notes).
2. Write down all formulae, reactions, reaction mechanisms, important conditions and exceptions while making short notes.
3. Use as much as diagram to make the short notes really short.
4. Try to include some important concepts used in questions with the help of diagrams.
. There are books in the market, but personalized notes are always better. Also, maintain a track of important questions in study material(I used to mark important questions with stars).
The real importance of short notes is realized one week before JEE. You want to revise, but you don’t have time to study all your notes. Do make them if you don’t want to regret later.
