    Great video ! It included ⬇️
    Phase 1 - pathoma kaplan etc , dont take notes
    Phase 2 - FA, Uworld etc
    ( dont note down things uworld to FA in the beginning )
    ( use a pencil to mark FA initially , colors in later time )
    (Dont simple write notes from FA in a notebook)
    NOTES from Uworld -
    1. Create electronic version of notes / put it in “notebook” in uworld itself ( filter the important info only )
    2. Flashcards ( it enhances recalling / retrieving)
    3. Highlights/ bolding important info
    4. Tag only important questions from your QBank
    5. If you write notes , make sure they are only 10-15 pages covering whole syllabus

    I also watched Santiago's video regarding notes. As per your definition, purpose for notes is to "narrow amt. of info to review after 1st round (of qbank)".. Santiago didn't forgo this process altogether - just that he went about it differently, stating that he uses the flagging process to segregate the content he intended to revisit.. in a sense, storing as "notes" (since the vignettes and explanations also serve as defacto notes).
    Just my observation.. Both of you have great content, thanks for sharing with the community.
