I’ve always found it amusing that when I was in school/grad school, I was reading a lot of material that I didn’t usually find interesting, so it would have been valuable to know how to take good notes. I never even heard of a course in the subject of note-taking so I never learned any of these methods you hear about. Nowadays I only read or otherwise consume stuff that I find interesting for its own sake so my retention is vastly better, and I have no real need for such systems anyway.
