How do you take notes?

I just started studying for the GRE and am wondering how you all are taking notes as you go through the study plan. I don’t want to waste a lot of time writing down problems for quant but I think looking back at notes is helpful. Any suggestions?

As you go down the material you will notice that there are interesting generalizations/results which if you can remember can really help you solve a particular type of problem in a faster way. But in general you just need a small notepad in which you can track your progress and write formula or link to material that you find you should visit back to later on.
