i'm with you, tiff.
i used to jot down notes in class, but when it came to studying, i would highlight AND write down tons of notes.
i had a darned book written by the time i was finished.
but it helped me, by golly.
helped me a lot.
i'd rather have too much info than not enough.
i'm neurotic like that.

That would be me also. I love to write so it does not bother me at all.

The system I use for all classes I've taken so far is when taking notes on class I write key points directly onto index cards rather than extensive paragraphs
