It's less immediately apparent that I'm talking about actual musical notes if I start on A. Also G > A. Just in general.

JC 2K3

Yeah, but you could have started on the good 'oul traditional C.

PurpleFistMixer

I could have... but I play the violin, and the violin starts on G. : )

If anyone's looking to share notes, a few of us (me and some other boardsies who did the leaving last year) are working to get a start on a resource of leaving cert notes for all subjects. We've only just started over the summer so not alot is up yet, but hopefully it should grow during the school year. Anyone can sign up and add their own notes if they want - www.zulunotes.com

This is a great idea! But I'm curious about the copyright issues... as a former teacher I'm very aware that most students's notes are in fact copied directly from textbooks. Also places like The Institute might not like to see their precious material appear online for all to enjoy.

I don't think anyone arsed typing up their notes for Zulunotes is going to be copying them word for word from a textbook.

I mean in fairness, it's not "most" students that are going to contribute here. It's likely going to be mainly high achieving students who are well capable of writing notes/explaining things.

I add to zulunotes and i can say that all of my notes have been written by my own accord. I think its a great site to use and that it will benefit many.

any notes i've seen from grinds schools so far for ag science have not been any great shakes. make out your own or buy the revision book that came out this month, it's pretty good for most topics.

Especially for the sciences, you will take in a lot more of the information if you write out your own set of notes. Have a copy of Economics notes that would almost be publishable if they were complete... I like colored pens.

If your notes are potentially publishable, then they're likely not good notes IMO.

Ok, each to their own, but I think they should be done quickly, messily and be severely abbreviated and therefore will likely be unreadable by anyone but yourself.

ok personally i wouldnt agree with that, if you want to refer to them later its no0t exactly gonna be easy to try and read them.
perhaps neat the first time and then messy when you revise them

how long wud it take 2 do ur own notes????
ages but it does "go in" better i have 2 admit

PurpleFistMixer

I must agree with Fad.
When I make notes, I make them nice to look at, not necessarily in colours, but arrows and lines and underlining and little drawings and... well, you get the idea. My music notes are a thing to behold.
If they don't look nice, and if they're not quick and easy to read, I'm not likely to bother.

If I'm doing "try and see how much I can remember" or "writing things down to remember it better" it's a big mess, as I'm never gonna look at that page again, but for the first time around.. it's like a book, if you're gonna refer back to it, it better be legible.
