I am a freshman taking AP world history, and was hoping to get ways to more efficiently take notes. As of now, it takes about ten minutes to take notes of one page. I am not sure how to identify what is necessary and what is not, and to compensate, wrote 43 pages of notes, when the teacher was looking for no more than 12. Also, how do you juggle committee meetings, homework, sports, etc? Thank you for your time!
