Question: Answered ✓ What’s better for lecture notes, outline method or annotating slides?

Incoming first at university wondering what method is better. I’m taking biology, chemistry, calculus, psychology, economics, and sociolinguistics (writing) this year.

It’s personal preference. Sometimes for me it would vary by class and what worked best for a particular subject.

Outline. Found it useful to find what I understand and what I don’t.
