Approach
Step 1: Read all the necessary texts. Quick review after reading them.
Step 2: Review the texts quickly.
Step 3: Make notes at any time, but small topics only.
NB:
- More details can be added later
--> If time allows, these notes should be complete and detailed
- But in the interest of time efficiency
--> Remember not to make the notes too complete or detailed. (Take home messages only)
- If notes end up being to detailed, or the topic is very important
--> Do a WRITTEN summary and scan for archive
