BookFactory Universal Note Taking System (Cornell Notes) / NoteTaking Notebook - 120 Pages, 8'' x 10'' - Soft Touch Wood Finish Cover Case Bound (LOG-120-SCS-AXE9400(Universal-Note))

I love the Cornell format for note taking and this spiral notebook is great! The paper quality is good and the pages are thick. Using a sharpie pen, there is no bleed through. I like that the pages are numbered and pages 2-5 are set up to be a table of contents, if you so choose. It has a nice and thick plastic cover for both the front and the back. The spiral ring seems sturdy and like it won’t crush or snag in a backpack. I personally love that it is made in the USA by a Veteran-owned firm! Great American made product! I will definitely buy more!

I am a professor of social media in music studies. My students are way too distracted and cognitive research suggests actually writing your notes is better. So I am requiring this notebook in either size (or cornell method notetaking) for all my college courses. No devices allowed. We are studying music, experience, and how to study itself.I tested the notebook out at a week-long conference and LOVED it so much, I am excited to use it as my everything notebook for my research, teaching, and service. Highly recommended for those like me who NEED the structured environment to both order my thoughts, tasks, and questions and need the space left on the page to ponder. I also LOVE the pagination of all the pages so you can simply mark a previous page where you put a diagram. no need to redo it or flip back and forth remembering where it was. Just find the page number! Highly recommend this for students whose background never taught them the deliberate practice of study and note-taking. Students were expected to just figure it out. This solves a lot of issues with focus in class lectures and in organizing research, too.

LOVE THIS. I'm so organized now... makes it easier to find things. I'm a fan of the Cornell Notetaking method. I've used other companies like Tops. Not Great. This notebook is a necessity. Pages are thick, numbered, and sections are bold. The plastic covers are very sturdy and it keeps my notebook edges from bending. I only wish that I had this sooner and that this notebook came in multi subjects. Buy this! It's worth it!

I've gone back and forth with 4 and 5 stars, but it's getting 5 stars and a warning to bring the price down if possible. I have been using this notebook to do all the research needed for my business I am trying to get off the ground and I had one that I used during my regular job too. The price was just fine 8 days ago, when I had my job. Now, it seems like an expenditure I will soon not be able to afford, and the notebook is so great that everyone should be able to use it. The paper is so smooth against my favorite pen and how the notebook is set up is fantastic with the beginning having the topics for what you have on each page then go to each topic throughout the notebook. I have 3 of them on my bed right now as I write this review. If you are on the fence with this purchase and you are picky about your pens and notebooks, don't hesitate. This is the best and use it with a BIC Velocity 1.6 ball point pen. :-) I love the wide ruled because I have the handwriting of an architect in all caps so this keeps everything nice and neat on the page.

I just received the notebooks I have purchased. I was looking for the brand focusnotes note-taking system on Amazon and read some reviews for that brand, then saw one of the reviews mentioned this brand note-taking notebook, so I looked into it. I am really Happy that I made a good decision.I have used many types of notebooks, engineering note-taking notebooks, blank sheets notebooks, lines marked notebooks, even the same note-taking system but different brands, etc. This is the best notebook I have ever bought.1. plastic covers on both sides.2. paper quality, thick3. each page shows page number. It is a really good feature, and I could say that 99.99% of the notebooks on the market do not have the feature. I like to have the page number on each page, and I used to mark page numbers my own on the pages.4. the first 3 pages, you could write your contents, such as which page includes what topics. It is really good for note-taking, and later, when do review my notes, I can directly go to the page I want. I used to make my own as well, now save me time.I think all of the college students should have this notebook, recommended.

Great useful notebooks! 120 pages in each notebook, numbered pages, hardly if no bleed throughs when using a pen or highlighter. Nicely sized with a lot of space for writing down notes, I won't have to worry about getting water on the notebook because of the water resistant covers (front and back)The pages are numbered which is a plus, it's about the size of my MacBook Air 13". I bought 2 and will be buying more in the future. Highly recommend for highschool/college students!!

Love it! Helps keep me organized for my CHEM class. The layout of this notebook makes it much easier to find everything I need, quickly. It is organized just like the pics shown, with a heading section at the top, for subject /topic, date, etc., there is a column on the left, which I find most helpful, and there is a summary section on the bottom of each page (shaded gray, a bit too dark for me). I use the notebook for some note taking, lesson planning, and for keeping my science homework organized, especially word problems. The column on the left is a great place to put key equations, and notes for "tricky" problems. I recommend at least *trying* this format for note taking and homework, regardless of whether or not you need a spiral notebook like this one, or loose-leaf paper. You can find similar, free, printable templates online, esp. Pinterest. Note: pens work great, but pencil doesn't show up very well. Paper is substantial enough to not bleed thru colors from sharpie-type, fine point pens.

I’m a returning college student and I’m very particular about where I keep my notes etc. this notebook is laid out in a manner that will be beneficial for me and help me stay organized. I’m so excited to use this notebookEdit:Added some photos of how I used it- love the layout and love how easy it is to transfer notes from my old notebook- granted it took some time but now I know how I want to utilize the space

I used to buy Black n Red premium notebook to do Cornell Notes in and it cost about the same, if not a bit more than this notebook, although it had a more premium quality of paper. However, I much prefer this Cornell notebook as all the lines have been drawn for you. I hate having to draw lines myself. Also, it makes me take less and more concise notes for that reason. Paper quality is good in the sense that there is no bleed, although not as good as the Black n Red, but the pre-drawn lines and the Index section at the front of the book (which lets you create a nice index of all your written pages) makes it so worth the money. If you love taking Cornell notes like me, this is a must-buy, although I get the feeling that it only costs this much because it is obviously a USA product and has to be shipped over here - the back cover of the book lists the north American company's address and phone number. I don't want to bother trying cheaper, more locally produced Cornell notebooks as none of them have as many good reviews as this one and I would worry about paper quality. I'd say that the paper quality of this notebook is decent, though not the best I've had, but at least it won't put me off using it. I use Pilot Frixion pens to make colourful notes and there is absolutely no bleed of ink, which is brilliant.

Quality, you get what you pay for. My last order of Cornell notebooks consisted of some cheaper alternatives and although they were good and did the job, these ones have a far better build quality (materials etc). Absolutely zero ink issues, no bleed through. Recommend a fountain pen to go with them, personal preference.

A well designed note pad, but l feel it was quite expensive for 200 pages. I have brought a larger pukka pad and just divided the pages myself.

Use in university, and love them, would recommend

Just what my son needed for Uni
