Which study notes are better?

Some of my friends always ask which set of study books is better. To me, I don’t think they have big difference as I just read them ONCE. As the exam topics covered are very broad and comprehensive, you may not have time to go through all the details of the study books every time.

Thus I more relied on the summary notes that highlighted the key points and concepts. But as I found the summary notes provided along with the study books were not user-friendly and comprehensive enough, I prepared the summary notes on my own at the time when I first read the study books.

I carried few page of my self-prepared summary notes with me everyday and read them while I was traveling elsewhere, drinking in a coffee shop after work, waiting for my boyfriend to see a movie, having a quick lunch at McDonalds, and etc. By making good use of my spare time, I needed not to forfeit much of my social life while preparing for the exam.

My tips:
- Read few lines whenever you have time!
- Do enjoy your life, but don’t forget your study!
