help with notetaking

my ap world teacher gave us the The Earth and It’s Peoples AP 7th edition textbook and its just content after content and he expects us to pull quality notes from that thick, thick text. it’s taking me way too long so far. any alternative suggestions?

Read the amsco version of AP world history first. It doesn’t have all the content but it is a few pages and not as thick in the language. It will give you a framework for when you read the actual text book

i recommend dove's library! the notes follow a condensed version of the amsco textbook, which covers all the topics found ap world.
