Same. I'm an auditory learner and retain the most material without note-taking. My ideal is lecture note handouts that I refer to later on the day of the class. I skim once during the start of class then read it out loud to myself and it's in my memory for good.

I should add that I speak a mile a minute and prefer very fast talkers. If only all my profs could have been former auctioneers!

What is to give light must endure burning.
