I am trying to study a book, and was advised to make bullet points for important information.
I'm good at remembering select quotes, but always had difficulty with comprehension. Studying for A'Levels, twenty-six years ago, must have caused a burnout; then. Same when doing Final Year at Uni. It wouldn't stick.
Any other tips?
If it's a book that you don't have to return (or you can source your own copy) I would take a multi-pack of highlighters to it and highlight what initially strikes you as important with one colour and then take the other colour and highlight anything else that sticks out on a second reading after you've had a cuppa tea and come back to it, then you can just refer back to the highlighted sections and disregard anything that is probably just distracting filler.
I tried hilighters before, but was obsessive with the hilighting. Too much was hilighted.
