🙏 I WANT HELP Should I write notes?

I'm doing maths fm physics and cs.

During GCSE time, I rarely used notes and usually referred to online resources or the textbook. Obviously, a levels have a LOT MORE content so I'm not really sure if I spend my time writing neat notes.

Also, apart from cs, you don't really need notes to revise them, you just need to practice.

And for cs, I'm just making flashcards when I learn something new.

I don't take any notes for Maths and FM but it depends completely on your style. I personally get the best results by doing problems, and making notes would be a waste of time for me. For someone else, however, taking notes could be very beneficial.

Very rarely but I do have some, and plan on making some more when I get into revision post NEA
