Basic rules of taking down notes for study:

▫️process what you have heard or read and write it down in your own words. ▫️leave a few blank lines between the main ideas to return to them later and add new information. ▫️make your own system of abbreviations and special characters to save time. ▫️write in short separate phrases, not whole sentences. ▫️learn to highlight the essence and leave out the unimportant stuff.
