• If you miss a point and realise too late that it might be important, write a key word about it in your notes and mark it with a star. Continue listening and making notes of the rest of the lecture. You can always ask your friends after the lecture what the point was.
• Remember that you can always add to your notes after the lecture. Try to spend 10 minutes at some stage after the lecture to go through your notes. add more points and more detail where necessary.
