Compare Two Note-Taking Systems for Your Learning Style

You take notes diligently, then open them weeks later and they are useless for revision. This compares two note-taking systems against the way you actually process information, on the principle that the best method is the one you will genuinely review. You describe how you take notes now, what you study and what goes wrong, and get the better fit.
