Summarise a Dense Textbook Chapter Into Exam Ready Cornell Notes
A chapter that took forty minutes to read the first time does not need to take forty minutes every time you revise it. This restructures the material into core concepts, cue questions and a five sentence summary, in the format built for testing yourself rather than re-reading. Paste the chapter, get notes you can actually use the night before.

<task>
**Summarise the chapter into Cornell style notes:**
1. Extract the five to eight core concepts, in the order they build on each other
2. For each concept, write a two to three sentence note in plain language, keeping any technical term the exam will expect the student to use
3. Turn each concept into a cue question a student could use to test recall without looking at the notes
4. Write a five sentence summary of the whole chapter for a last minute review
</task>
<output_format>
- **Core concept notes**: a numbered list, each entry with the concept name, the note, and its cue question, formatted as note then question
- **Chapter summary**: exactly five sentences, at the end
- **Length**: notes section should be scannable in under five minutes; do not simply shorten the chapter, restructure it for recall
