I hope this isn't off topic

But you know they lecturers, teachers mentors etc say "use the dot points/study design to study ONLY those areas"

Well for one of my subjects last year our book had the study design at the front, and i went page by page circling what we need to know. And when i finished i realized i practically circled 98% of the book, and it was absolutely no help at all. When I look at my other subjects, it seems EVERYTHING in the book we need to know.

Am I wrong? Right? :(

Textbooks are based off the study design. The only time well produced texts veer from the study design is to complement it, i.e. you should know that information too.

Good textbooks can be used wholly and usually exam revision is done from summary notes, therefore your decision needs to be made based on how well these notes cover the study design, hence comes the need for good notes.

Thanks :D. That's good to know then, because I have summarized some of my textbooks already, so i guess my exam revision is just reading them, going over SACS, and doing questions :D Thanks M@tty.
