This may seem so trival but I had last semester taken no notes and the semester before that had used several notebooks and paper for each class. That can get very unorganized and frusterating not knowing where your notes are that you just took. I tried to have a talk inside and parts want to use different things that I would want and it makes making a decision very difficult.
Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreicated. Thanks
any time I am taking a class i check with the instructors a head of time to ask them if it is ok that I tape record (audio) the class. this way if I am at home or else where I can pop in the cassette and refresh my memory on what was discussed during class time. these cassettes come in very handy also for when I am studying for the exams. so far during many many years and many different colleges, I have always been told yes they welcome recording devises. some people even bring their lap tops and either type in their notes on their own programs or they turn on their cam / mic and the computer records the class discussion on to their lap tops.

suggestion maybe you can check with your instructors to see if this is an option for you.
