Hey all, I just got accepted into my local community colleges ADN program this fall. I finished most of my prereqs last semester, but one issue I ran into a lot is keeping my stuff organized. I have a separate folder for each class, and stapled chapter notes together and outlines, but for the most part, everything was a free for all. Tests, power points, notes, outlines, handouts, all crammed into one folder. I know index cards are useful, but I would find myself losing some chapters here and there. SOOO! Any suggestions for keeping my notes organized? Or maybe different techniques for taking notes and studying?
britthohenbrink 154 Posts Jun 10, 2014 I have 2 binders (one 3 inch, one 1 1/2 inch).... Within the binders I have dividers per class and then each class is tabbed according to concept. I leave the 3inch binder at home and take the smaller one with me to class, once we have an exam I put the material in the 3 inch binder. As far as taking notes I get a multi subject notebook (depending on how many classes I have) and type my notes when I get home and add the typed notes to their appropriate tab. Hope this helps. :)
