Self-study
Hi guys, do you have any tips on how to improve low res summaries? I try to keep it under 6-7 words, mostly 3-4 words, but I struggle when questions ask me to recall details.
For example here are my low-res summaries of some passages:
PT. 108. S4. P4 [Passage about early humans not being confident hunters but scavengers]
P1 - Anthropologist wrong early humans
P2 - What is taphonomy
P3 - Cut marks different
P4 - Scavengers not confident hunters
PT111.S2.P4.Q6[Passage about why legal positivism is “erroneous” + Dworkin’s theory]
P1 -Legal positivism accept wrong / Legal positivism vs natural law
P2 - What is legal positivism
P3 - Law has internal logic
P4 -Meaning outside people’s thoughts
I appreciate any feedback!

I think these are pretty good! My personal opinion-- instead of "What is [idea]", choose a couple words from the paragraph as your low-res to say what that idea actually is. Low-res should be a short-cut, you probably will be tested on the aspects of that idea, and simply putting "What is [idea]" wont really give you any benefit.
For example, a paragraph describes me, I wouldn't say "what is joegav1" but rather "7sage user, studying for the lsat"-- ideas ABOUT me. The passage already exists in the world of me, so it would be hard to lose track that I am the idea. Prevent yourself from having to reread the passage as much as possible
