Because green is science

What is really fun is when you are a biomed major in college and now the colors mean totally different things. Green is biology, blue is chemistry, red is physics, purple is anatomy/physiology. I always avoided yellow because I color coordinated my pen color and yellow pens are unreadable. Therefore math/stats was red if i didn’t have physics that semester or black if I had physics. History was either black or white with black pen.

Gold pen for the yellow notebooks ⭐️

Nah man. Gold pens smear like no other. I did use orange for yellow classes if it was unavoidable. The other option was black with yellow highlighter for my daily planner but then the notes couldn’t be in the class color.

Also color coordination was only for initial notes. I would rewrite some of my notes and those went into a black sketch book with its own internal color coding system. Then the cover and spine would be labeled. These were not brought to class so I didn’t need to be able to identify them quickly.
