Hi everyone,
I'm having a few issues with mindmaps.
I know they are meant to be brief without much details but how brief.
Is it a good idea to only use headings, subheadings and 1 or 2 words in each mindmap
if so should I continue super reading and dipping countless times and regularly reviewing my mindmap in order to allow the book to gel?

Have I just answered my own question?

Just asking in order to clarify.
Thank you very much

Mind maps are used in as much detail you want or need. It will all come down to your purpose for PhotoReading the book and how much information you want to retain.

You could mind map each chapter of a book and, then 'join' them together to create a super mind map.

You can use the table of contents to help you.

Forget the mind map for a second. If you had to describe to somebody in 10 keywords what you have just read - what are those keywords? That's your mind map. Mindmaps can also include images.

Mindmaps follow the 80/20 rule. What 20% covers 80% of the book?

And in case I want to retain the maximum amount of information I can from a book, what do I have to do?
