“ISN's are easy to do and
worth a lot of points, so take
time and effort to do them
well.“
"Always update your table of
contents so papers don't get
messed up - or in case of an
ISN check.“
"An ISN is a great tool, keep it
organized!“
"You have to spend quality
time on your ISN.“

"Don't leave your ISN until the last
day, otherwise you may be up to
the early morning hours finishing
assignments.“
"Colorize things. It looks so much
better that way”
"Keep it in order, because you
never know when a notebook check
might come up.“
"Do not save your ISN until the
last minute. Remember, it counts
as much as a test."
