    This is really nice, I wouldn’t have to bring a bunch of notebooks with me + I get to cut off my spending on ballpens, highlighters, and such. Thank you so much. I’m going to suggest this to my parents and hopefully I can have my iPad Pro next year. 💜

    i've been debating on whether I should get an iPad as a prospective freshman in college. I already do a good amount of online notetaking as a student since I use Onenote on a touchscreen computer, but the problem was the lack of storage on my onenote account for all my notes. so I have been debating on whether I should make the switch! This really did help with my understanding, thank you!

    With this being a 10 month old video. As of NOW, would you recommend using an iPad Pro as a laptop for a freshman? I am finally starting my path in the University and honestly I went into the military service first, then got experience in working fields. So you can say I’m foreign to school now. So what are your thoughts on this? I got an iPad Pro (2018) with a keyboard and pen for $500. So instead of spending more money, would you think this is good for now?

    • @natalieminassian

      Personally the time difference doesn’t change that a laptop is necessary for college and it can do a lot more than a iPad Pro can. An iPad cannot replace a laptop. There are some things that I can do on my laptop but not on my iPad. However, I take my iPad to school for all my notes and use it for some hw assignments while I use my laptop more at home. Hope that helps!! ☺️

    • @natalieminassian

      Yes. You can type essays on the iPad, upload documents and submit homework. My recommendation is, if you do not have a laptop, buy the laptop first and then purchase the iPad later. In my opinion the iPad can’t replace a laptop.

    • @natalieminassian
      @natalieminassian  3 года назад

      I don’t think the generation really matters. Before I bought my iPad I went into Best Buy and looked at all the iPads and other tablets to really get an idea on which type I wanted. In my opinion if I was going to buy a tablet, I wanted the newest one which in this case was the iPad Pro 2020 11 inch! Not too sure about the 8th generation but I think some people have said they use that for notes too. Hope that helps!☺️

    Awesome video, though I am a year late to it. I just wish there were tools like this back when I was in college. It MAY have made my studies a little less stressful. I was in college back when Windows 95 had just gone up, and we were still using 3.5 floppy disks! …😂😂. There wasn’t anything like tablets, at least not to my knowledge. Now though, they’re everywhere. I just recently, invested in an iPad air-which is almost as good as the Pro, i guess. They are pretty convenient to have and use, especially with Apple Pencil, etc. This video, along with another of yours that I’ve watched, makes me want to try going back to school just so I can use this iPad of mine, lol!
