For me, this quote applies to every part of science and mathematics. You can have great note taking skills, but the lack of understanding the content then the notes are useless. Its just some words on a piece of paper for you to look at while studying for a test. My teachers have always taught me that "Understanding where things are coming from" will get us far in life. With understanding and comprehension, we can create new ideas and rules that would help solving questions easier. It may open new questions, but it also create new opportunities to learn. Same can be said for the realm of science.
