Many teachers test strictly from their lectures.
Much of your studying is likely to come from your notes, and often how well you study is determined by how well you take notes. Any student who tries to write down every single thing a teacher says is setting herself up for frustration and inaccuracy, not to mention hand cramps. Instead, try to note the ideas your teacher is making. Write the main ideas down first, followed by details when time allows. Also, if you include specific examples that make sense to you, you'll be more likely to understand your notes long after the lecture.
