III. Read the following text and answer the questions below
One of the reasons you may have identified for underperforming is that you’re not
taking good enough notes. Hurriedly scrawled notes from class can be difficult to make
sense of when you come to revise from them, or even to write an essay based on them. It’s
all to easy to misunderstand your own notes and fail to get a strong enough grasp of the
topic. It’s imperative, therefore, that you produce good notes from each of your classes
and from the books you use – notes that you can read, that are useful, and that are logically
organized. If you make notes by hand- in class, for example – try to type them up at the
end of the day, while they’re still fresh in your mind.
