Mine own study habits and various articles and wasted highlighter ink have made me realize how useless highlighting is. I already take side notes and spend time reviewing previously written notes to improve my memory retention, but I'm wondering if there's another effective method to stress important facts while taking notes. Thanks!

For me, it helps to 'teach' my family. For example, I just finished learning about the different types of bias. I sat my toddler down in her playroom with my infant, and pretended they were my students. Im currently working on torts and contracts, which is its own headache.

It helps to break up the material into smaller sections.
