This is where I found ebooks to be quite a bit superior to regular textbooks. If you take notes as you read (which I didn't do) or highlight within the ebook relevant passages (which I do), then you'll have no problem. I never highlighted as I read with regular textbooks, but the ease is there with ebooks (plus I don't feel dirty for marking in the text...) If the prof warns about something on the test and you've never heard the word before, it's easy to do a keyword search and read about it.
