How to Relax and Ace Your College Midterms

Cynthia Crimmins, director of the Learning Resource Center, was quoted in a story in U.S. News and World Report:

If you take notes, review and rewrite them immediately after class before your short-term memory fizzles out. But during class, if you have to choose between listening and understanding or taking notes, you should listen, says Cynthia Crimmins, director of the Learning Resource Center at York College of Pennsylvania. You can always get the notes later from a classmate or even from the professor directly, since more and more professors are now posting their lessons online.
