Thanks! In undergrad and during my master's, I still managed to graduate with Distinction and have a high CGPA while not actually reading every single line of everything that was assigned to me. What I would do was read the abstract, the conclusion, look at the paragraph titles to see what were the main concepts defined or the main point of the article, and reading the first and last sentence of a paragraph. I'll see if I'll be able to keep this strategy during my PhD. I think my biggest struggle is probably finding a way to read "actively" and not "passively" because reading passively is more boring and painful... What's your strategy for taking notes while you're reading?
