S T O P 😤 T E X T B O O K 😤 R E A D I NG 😤 well at least taking hundreds of notes from a textbook that probably won’t gain you marks #workSMARTnotHARD
Eve Cornwell life advice from eve the true guru love your vids gurl
yeah I had the same problem.... I only summarized everything but not actually study it
Because I had a 3 hour commute to and from uni I learned all this in my first year. Like the text books do waffle but I do take their opinions on the key issues in that topic area.
Eve Cornwell I’m a small TH-camr and love you so much Eve!💗
Eve Cornwell Hi Eve! Eve Cornwell! Can you also make a video on how to make a case for yourself to protect or defend yourself or your decisions in work or life in general? HOW DO LAW STUDENTS PROTECT/DEFEND THEMSELVES FROM BULLYING, ABUSE, INJUSTICE, UNFAIRNESS, DEFAMATION, AND MALICE???? So much evil in some people in the world 😫😫😢
litERALLY I HAVE NEVER MET A TH-camR SO DEDICATED IN TRULY EDUCATING THEIR VIEWERS ON THE PROPER WAYS TO TAKE GOOD NOTES AND ANSWER QUESTIONS LIKE. YOU TRULY GO ABOVE AND BEYOND AND YOU'RE NOT STINGY AT ALL WITH YOUR KNOWLEDGE AND IT'S SO DAMN HELPFUL AND WOW I APPLAUD YOU
why are you yelling?
OTTO It’s out of excitement
Please keep it low everyone is sleeping
this thread-
and yeah same, Eve's one of the best studytubers
Thank god for this video, I’m so tired of the ‘studytubers’ who make videos on note taking just to tell you to make fancy titles with mildliners and that’s it. Pretty notes=/= good notes!
True, whereas whatever helps you.For example if you prefer re-writing it then you could do that but obviously what technique you do and revise has to work for you. "Studytubers" just give you advise based on what works for them so they just share experience with their viewers.
swan D maybe it's because ppl like the aesthetic of it. I'm the complete opposite of that. I'm the only person that can understand my notes and my table's a mess when I study
Most of them don't tell you that pretty notes = good notes. it's just their methods on how they study because it works for them. it doesn't work for everyone but there are many other techniques you can use like this one
its sad but tru. some spend half of the video drawing fancy titles and speech bubbles. i know i don't have time to do that so i do flashcards or i just write in only black pen and then when i get home i will just highlight my notes and add stuff if i want to. personally i dont like those pretty notes because even though they're pretty, they make you focus on the fat fancy title at the top rather than the information you need.
@@name.surname.9707 yea same. I'm going into 8th grade now and my notes since the beginning of MS have been black ink/pencil and that's it. but now i highlight instead of underlining :)
Find urself a gal who can save your degree with the most amazing note taking tips and teach you how to make the best iced coffee
Beth Bates 😤😤😤 u understand me x
What is the iced coffee video ? I’m new here :)
It’s yourself
I’m a med student and I don’t even know why I’m watching this beside the fact that I love Eve 😂🤷🏻♀️
Ewelina V. Hahahaha I love you - the dedication 😤😤
Same 😂
Same! 😊
Samee
Because of the sheer quantity of info both careers manage 😅
My entire exposure to the law industry is from:
- two years of mock trial
- how to get away with murder
- eve cornwell
Li all u need tbh
Only one of these is credible. which is it gonna be, liza?
@@toofanibihari7324 obvi HTGAWM 🤓
To be honest Eve, we need a more detailed video on this because this is great at summarising the main key points that we need to know but I feel like there's so much more I need to wrap my head around. At this point, I pretty much need an entire video on how to read information more efficiently. Like, I'll read the set chapters for each law module and come out with zero time for doing the additional readings, whilst STILL needing to check that I've actually learned and understood everything for contracts, public law etc.
Help! Can we like email you or something? Just jk (not really).
You could probably dm her on twitter ! Idk how often she replies though
Her email is in her desc
struggling with the same thing. Anyone know a good video/tip for it?
Go in with questions. When reading your lecture notes, think of any questions. Like, what's the difference between a tort or a crime? What are crimes AND torts, and what are just either? What obiter dictum's have become law? Is there a more recent case I can relate to, instead of the one from the 1800s they use in the lecture? Have their been any cases that are really similar but had different results? You just basically keep going through the notes. When you're reading the textbook you're far more likely to retain the info that has answered your questions.
And think of it this way. If you only remember one thing from your textbook readings because it answered a question, that's way better than remembering nothing like you do now
Please do the case note video! Or any study / notes / exam videos! for law ha
112lauren okokok
Yesss please
sadly this doesn't apply to science (I do biomedical engineering), in this case DEFINITELY READ THE TEXTBOOK and be VERY DESCRIPTIVE in your answers if you have to give certain pathways or cycles or reactions
Biochemical engineering here, I am bad at taking notes and this wasn't very helpful for me either (it sounds good though). I only use textbooks because lectures don't really help at understanding. I get through with the materials we got from seniors.
Same for Law school in the Netherlands. They only give 60% of the information in most lectures in your masters
Carina in the Dutch law bachelor they give you like 90% of the information in the lecture right?
Anouk Melissa yes but still passing on only Lectures is for most subjects impossible. At least at my uni is. I did Dutch law and Dutch tax law bachelor. Passed both
Carina wauw wat goed van je. Ik zit momenteel in mn eerste jaar European Law en Rechtsgeleerdheid. Dus voor tentamens is het het belangrijkst om de hoorcolleges te begrijpen maar vooral die informatie en jurisprudentie toe te kunnen passen zoals in de werkgroepen? Bedankt!!
this video honestly came at such a great time for me. for context, im a psych student, and my first year i didnt really take notes effectively at all so i wanted to improve on it this year. ive been trying out doing reading before my lecture so my knowledge is more solid, but pretty much all my lecturers just make the powerpoints from the book. you've kinda just made me realise how much time im wasting, since im spending like five hours on reading only to just get the most concise points from the powerpoint, so i think i'll try out doing the reading afterwards and building on the powerpoint with research that's are only in the book. thanks for the video!! really looking forward to a revision noted video, my whole life ive just wrote out notes again and again and done basic knowledge tests so i really want to figure out the best method for me x
this is probably just an excuse for me to not do the reading for my 9am tomorrow so big thanks for that
sorry for the MEGA long winded reply lmao love u queen
Omg I'm a psych student as well!! Hope you go well with your degree :))
Hi,
I'm going to be starting my psych degree this September while working a full time job. I'm nervous. Any word of advice or things I should look out for?
Another student here ^^ thought this might apply: I was doing the exact same thing you were doing last semester until I realized by skimming the chapter’s concept definitions the night or morning before class I was still able keep a step ahead of the lecture and save time when I went back to read it more thoroughly after. It seems like more work when you think about it but I found the information sunk in better, stayed longer, and I was reading much quicker.
i’m also gonna start as a psych major this august omg i’m starting this free online course over summer so that it’ll hopefully be a breeze when college starts.
I have come out of this video more confused that what I was when I entered.... please do a more detailed version!!!
Because i'm doing my A-level but as i love her videos still watch but i'm kind of confused as well to be honest but is fine i ain't still in uni still got 2years and i can't believe how quick time has past by
Same
@@CP-vk3nh I am very very late to this but I just started uni and it's less confusing basically once you've gotten more familiar with uni courses and the teaching structure so won't apply much to a levels
1. lecture note
- pre-format your note in the lecture itself
- color-code and highlighting
+ key information - yellow
+ case - blue
+ academic words - pink
- compile form the start
+ let all lecture in the same topic into 1 document
2. set reading
- strip down (format) your note
+ it may have some information that no need to read
+ textbook reading - pink, further reading - orange
3. tutorial prep
4. revision note
"I'm a law student", iced coffee and brilliant revision advice = its a classic eve vid
staying on brand 😤
WE NEED MORE VIDEOS ABOUT NOTES. This is a great video but it's still really vague so if you maybe could expand in a bit more detail a few of the stept you're talking about in this video. Also, has this system changed since you started your LPC?
Agreed. If she could make an in depth version that would be great lol.
From a first year law student who struggles finishing the textbook readings: THANK YOU
Romrama Yousif ugh ugh textbook readings - try try try to cut them out as much as you can 📚
I would suggest academic papers reading as eve said, very helpful and text books are helpful when you really don't know what the topic is when you starting a week's seminar reading, for quick looks and then go in depth with the academic papers :)
reading academic papers and extracting key arguments, use them as arguments and counterarguments, and then explaining why you side with this kind of opinion helped a lot when I did my International Law of Trade and Aid course (Tonia tutored it lol, she's brilliant)!
Dron Wang yes yes !! and wow Tonia - did you study at Bristol ?? She is FAB
@@EveCornwellChannel yah yah I did my master's in 2016-2017, sad I didn't discover your TH-cam channel back then, could have met you. I mean we might have studied in Beacon or Will's at the same time lol
Please I have a question...
After making an argument and a counterargument, how do I explain why I sided with one party and not the other?
As a 1st year law student who’s completely confused about what the hell is going on and how to manage everything, this is a damn lifesaver😍
good luck with everything - you've got this !!
you deserve way more subscribers, it's absolute GOLD what you're talking about
omg i love your highlighter we stan a beauty guru
Important question:
How are you today?
Hana :Jinghay: thanks for asking. Today was a good productive day!
How about yourself?
Nice to hear! Mine was also pretty productive :)
Hana :Jinghay: , stressed got an exam tomoz
@@lieebieebs9854 Don't be stressed! You can do this!! GOOD LUCK I BELIEVE IN YOU x
lazy as hell
I'm a simple person. I see Eve's new video, I click.
WhatAJoke 12 hahaha what a great routine 😉
Her video editing skills are top notch!
I absolutely love your positivity!! And I love the way you mentioned how you think law is as hard as any other course. ! ❤️
Every uni course is difficult, in their own ways. I’m a Film Student - I’m in uni 5 days a week, I have roughly 100 (ish) pages of essential reading a night and about 8 assignments a semester. People always tell me my course is a waste of space & it’s not even close to difficult. I always find highlighting in different colours very effective. Yellow is key dates, Pink is key theories, orange is to look into further info & blue is definitions !! 🤩
ive just come back to this video 4 years later, now im finally studying my law degree, thankyou fo inspiring 14 year old me :)
Any videos on effective note taking for cases and prepping for exams would be amazing! Thanks for actually explaining how you go through your course materials!
i was in 9th grade when i came across this video (that made me subscribe to this channel). now i'm back as a political science student (also an aspiring lawyer!!!) and can i just say... YOUR VIDEOS MAKE ME SO MOTIVATED!
omg, i think my life just changed - first-year law student just about to do my second round formative!! this is so helpful thank you so much Eve.
I don't know how many of these note taking videos i have watched where they all say the same things that don't even actually help!! Thank you for this!!!!
Also, I’m still in high school but I switched from public school to doing online school fully and have noticed that a lot of the lessons/units is stories for you to understand better. That’s great, but if you don’t need that to comprehend the info, skip to the parts of the actual information that’s needed.
social work student here 🙋🏼♂️
A lot of my material is reading heavy textbooks and writing lengthy papers, so I feel like this could potentially help this upcoming term! Thank you!!
Thank you sooooo much for this video❤️❤️. Honestly was struggling with note taking, I mean their is a lot of material and u just like don't know what the hell to so with it. This really helped. PS. IF U CAN MAKE LIKE MORE VIDEOS TO HELP WITH ANSWERING EXAM QUESTIONS AND EVEN MORE ON NOT TAKING THAT WOULD BE AWESOME.IM SURE UR BUSY BUT IF U GET THE TIME.
Terrteel muawia there is so much material - but as I said (most of it is unnecessary to read/take notes on !!!). YES I will do on exam Qs closer to exams for deffo!!
Eve Cornwell, great then can't wait. Like as soo as I got a notification that you posted a video. I stopped what I was doing and was like I gotta watch it keep being awesome queen. ❤️❤️
Wow I’ve been really looking into law for my future and your channel has deepened that goal for me thanks eve keep up your exceptional work!❤️
we need that case notes video! :) thank you for making this
WHERE WAS THIS VIDEO IN MY FIRST YEAR thank god I found this video for my final year!!!!! I have been using your techniques this year and honestly i've saved so much time and have been able to spend my time actually doing the further reading and really getting to grips with the different judges' arguments like in Baden no.2, these tips are literally amazing!!!!!
I’m a third year vet student... and this is COMPLETELY different than the foundations we learn. I’m not being critical I was just blown away during your video. We know two separate languages
I’m studying law in the Netherlands and it’s pretty different. We usually get the presentation after the lecture so the only way to prepare for lectures is to do the reading. I wish I could format my notes beforehand. But love this series! Very helpful!
I legit had a break down between my two law lectures today because my notes were so all over the shop. 1st year law students problems. Eve, I’d love to hear how you used to spend your exam study break studying and what strategies you used for the week before exams. THANKS FOR MAKING THIS VID GIRL (also, hope having to edit this twice didn’t kill your soul)
Liv English yeah that is totally a getting used to thing, also probably a caring too much thing. final year I just didn’t care as much - that will come with time 😉 DEFINITELY doing a video before exams
I've recently enrolled in a Juris Doctor after completing an undergrad business degree.
I was enrolled in an LLB straight out of high school and looked at some previous assignments for inspiration. Can confirm, 18 y/o was not ready for law school; God, they were horrendous!
Thanks for your video! This has made me focus more on the process of judicial decision making and hopefully, if I can apply this properly, it will improve my ability to critically analyse.
ANOTHER AMAZING VIDEO EVE! FCKING KILLING IT! LOVE FROM AUSTRALIA
Megan Lloyd HAHAHAH I FREAKIN LOVE THE AUSTRALIANS ON THIS CHANNEL
Something that teachers never teacher is what she’s teaching about textbooks. The SQPR method is essentially the same, except if you’re reading the textbook after class, then you’re already perfectly prepped of what is of the upmost importance, and you can fly through a textbook. From what I’ve found, 30% of the textbook reading is base topics, and 70% expansion on the topics.
A non law example would be about low vs high pressure systems. The textbook will explain that low pressure systems are air circling up into the atmosphere in a counter clockwise motion. They’ll also explain that clouds are produced in low pressure systems due to the moist, hot air cooling in the atmosphere. This is important. This is what you need to know.
The textbook will then go into detail through the next page and a half about how exactly they’re created, and a bunch of nuanced stuff. Remember, the people writing the textbook are really passionate about the subject, so they love writing about it. You won’t be tested on the nuanced stuff, depending on the class, and chances are you’ll forget about it, too.
Less of the textbook reading, More of the IMPORTANT Reading.
Priceless statement! ❤️
Your intro is just uGh like i dont get why people arent talking about that rn pfft its such a mood ily sigrid so muchhhhhhhhhhhh❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🖤
Anyone else just watched mirror Eve?? :)
As a medical student, I really found these tips interesting. Another helpful note taking method is to record the lecture if your doctor/professor allows you. So if for example you are not in focus during lecture for some reason, you can go back to your recordings and figure it out!
This really helped me! I see some people comment that they got confused because of this video, but I totally get what you're saying. they're simple tips but have a big effect! I already did some of these things so I guess I'm going in the right direction. Thank you girl! :)
As someone with frequent tutorials and whose notes are basically FREAKING PAPERS EVERYWHERE (English lit student yaaaaay), I super appreciate this. I actually really liked that you focused on your subject as well bc I frequently need about fifty different examples shouted at me from the rooftops.
I’m interested in studying law in the future and your videos have been so interesting and informative! Literally binge watching them atm lol.
had my first lectures today. thought i'd watch this so i don't make the same mistakes i made during a-level.
You should make reading playlists
ooof, that is a GOOD IDEA
I literally finished school 2 days ago & couldn’t be happier, why am I watching this ajsk
I am a second university student in the US. I totally agree. Trying to read for every class as well as revising your notes and preparing for exams, etc is impossible. I have read a little bit to prep for class this year but I have mostly just prepped the lecture notes in a summarized way. Thank you for making this video! It was very helpful :) thank you for sharing your knowledge and educating your viewers. You are AMAZING!
I have my criminal and commercial law exams coming up real soon and this video is actually lifesaving! Thank you Eve will definitely be putting these tips into better practice next year!
This video is possibly one of the most helpful videos I've watched on TH-cam.. EVER. Thank you so much!
Today was my first day of classes for my third semester so this is coming at JUST THE RIGHT TIME. Thank uuuuuu
(bomb ass video btw loves)
YAS YAS go get it girl
Eve, as someone doing a PhD partially in how to learn (in engineering) this is A+++. Love it. So good. Congrats.
The gem of this video that blew my mind:
class as a taster! My whole world just shifted.
I record and transcribe ALL my lectures. LMAO!
Omg feeling blessed right now, queen eve back at it again providing that banging content!! Your literally getting me through my degree right now 🙏🏻
Just what I needed
Binge watching all eve's videos and it is making me want to be productive
I've been looking for a good channel that focuses on law, and yours is by far the best Ive come across 🤗 you've got a new subscriber!!!
Eve! Honestly your editing and your personality is amazing this was so helpful! Thanks 🌻
Monique Natasha AGH I’m so glad - hope it does help !!
thank you for making this video! im really supper excited after watch it, and now im start to study 😂 your energetic voice really help me to boost up my strength to study.
what have we done to deserve such a goddess??? BEST TH-camR EVER!!!
erm OKKK blessed ??
This is living giving. Truly. Thank you for putting this video into existence. YOU ARE DOING GOD’S WORK EVE!
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Eve this was soOoO helpful. I've got a lecture next month and I'm gonna make sure tho use all these advices!
Well, my school textbooks are colourful and fun they make it really thin as well but I still write my own notes because colours get me distracted so I would use one colour per topic in notes
YOU ARE AMAZING, would love separate more in-depth videos for each stage thank youuuuu 💗💗💗💗
I'm in 8th grade and idk why I'm watching this besides the fact that I freaking love Eve
We need another more detailed video of this please eve I need more of your help😭❤
Dream, think boldly, invest the heart, a lot is possible!
YES EVE YES
This has been very helpful and it only confirms what I noticed about my own studying. My notes are way too detailed. I need to break if down to the most important facts. Otherwise it's impossible to get your revision notes done in time and it will just be a huge mess in the weeks before my exams.
I have my first law lectures this week, saying this video could not have come at a better time is a huge understatement
good luck and work hard !! u got this
The first study tips video that is totally useful for me
Thank you so much for your explanation of what critical analysis is!
Can’t tell you how helpful this is, thanks for making this!
I’m trying to get into law school this year and this has actually helped so much with my general notes THANK YOUUU
Why you so perf😭😭? And great video started first year and before I was writing down everything the lecturer says passively without really understanding what was being taught in the lecture now I try to acc listen in the lecture to solidify what I already know from looking at the lecture slides a day before i also use he Cornell system for note taking
As a second year law student who is struggling to even create consistent good notes, this video is a life saver!!! Thank you so much!!!!!
AMAAAAAAAAAAZZZZZINNNGGG!!! Thank you. dont wait until exam season lol, release revision videos soon.
also a lot of us law students have coursework/essays due for this winter, so any tips??
can we just take a minute to look at the sub count from this video to now !!! Like girrllll you have smashed it
Thaaaanks Eve! I actually practice what you've been doing as an effective study method and hearing this from another law student is great. Awesome content!
I've just realised I've been doing uni wrong this whole time; time to actually get this bread and work smarter 💪
Also need to pay more attention in some lectures 😂
HELP PLEASE 😭: I am lost in the sauce as a second year student trying to get a law vacation scheme .Can you do a video on how to weite an application form and prepare for an interview . 😘
WOW I ACTUALLY NEEDED THIS since finals are coming up and we have this big departmental exam next week. Lol wish I could fit the information in my head tho 💞 THANK U FOR MAKING GREAT AND USEFUL CONTENT, EVIE
Hey Eve! Absolutely love your vids especially this one!! When will you be doing a video fully dedicated to revision notes. Cuz I may need some help lol ❤️
Thank you so much for this video! I started uni in September this year (2020) and I've really been struggling with how the hell to make notes.
i’m only doing legal studies in high school at the moment but this is honestly so helpful !! thank you !!
Yes eve!!!!!! Been waiting for this for ages!!! Literally love your channel!! , I am a true eve fan!! ❤️
Wow how did you know I was about to have a breakdown because I have no idea how to sort my law notes out? Legend!!!
I have just started my law degree and I'm really struggling to take concise notes at the moment, more videos like this would help ridiculously!!
So much energy : ) very enjoyable to watch. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Eve! Love the law series! I’m a second year law student and I’ve worked out some of the strategies that work best for me but your video was really helpful too!
keep going sis !!! we LOVE A HARD WORKING AMBITIOUS LAW QUEEN
I wish you nothing but love, good vibes and happiness. You just saved my degree thanks :)
Bless you, honestly I just started my foundation in law and your video does really helps me a lot, thank you! 😭💖
THIS WAS AMAZING EVE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO MORE REVISION VIDEOS LIKE THIS FROM A FELLOW LAW STUDENT
Thank you for your love and care Eve. Looking forward for the revision notes taking. 🌼
Thank you so much for making this video. Definitely going to be applying this to my own revision. 🙏🏼
Pro Tip: I recommend becoming a Paralegal or whatever you would call it in the UK first. Just from my own observations, paralegals get taught to do all of what's being taught here in an efficient manner and definitely helps the lawyers out when they have one of us haha. But after you get your diploma as a paralegal (or whatever it may be called elsewhere) you also gain experience usually through a work-term in a firm or court. After that if you still really want to become a lawyer, you can make it into a bachelor, or take like one more year before the LSATs in some cases! After you graduate from that you may have a step up when gaining entry into the legal industry because you've already had previous experience! :D I hope that this helps some people :)
Thanks for making me feel productive on a day where I had to miss four classes because I'm sick. Yesterday, one lecturer reminded us that we are already halfway to the exam, and I panicked a little.
