I take my laptop to every class except math classes and take notes on that. Then I use Offline Files to synchronize my notes with my desktop. For math classes I use a spiral, college ruled notebook.

You people are all so messed up it's not even funny. Why lug an entire friggin' binder around?

I take a clipboard, a pen, and ~30 sheets of paper to class. That lasts me the entire day. When I go home, I file the new notes in separate subject binders right behind the previous day's notes.

5 Star - 3 Subject College Ruled Spiral Notebooks.


90% of the time, i don't take notes, i just listen and jot down key ideas. Then i go home and play videogames. When exams come around, i read the jotted notes and try and think what the professor said.

Man I can't be fumbling around with my PDA to take notes. I use a sprial notebook with the name of the class and the quarter written on the cover. Date goes at the top of every page. Thats it.
