So...
Summer session begins this Monday, June 4th.
I'm taking two classes, Introduction to Ethics and Health, Safety, and Nutrition.

I started pre-reading for Health, Safety, and Nutrition and I already wish it was over.

Anyone else taking summer session?

Also, it seems that when I take notes on the reading I either write down too much or not enough. How do I figure out what needs to be in my notes?

I will be practicng music all summer; no class for me.

I hope your classes are going well.

I think trying to understand what you read and relate it to real life situation or relate it to something you like will help you better than writing note. Since you will have photographic memory out of it that way. It is just my way of learning though.

No, because I could not take the stress of the shorter period to get a semester's worth of work done.

Hi! I'm taking summer classes too. I think a good way to figure out how to take notes depends on the teacher. If your teacher's focus is on the lecture in class, you may want to spend more time studying what they say in class. If they talk about a lot of things that are in your textbooks, be sure to listen to what they want you to read for the next day and look at the syllabus to get a good idea of what you will be going over in the class.
Also, if your school is registered to sites like rateyourprofessor.com, you can see reviews of the teachers you take and read reviews from people who have had them to get a better sense of how to study for the class. Hope that helps

What classes are you taking?

I can't handle the shorter semesters either, but I didn't do so well last semester, so I need to catch up on credits.
