    Hi Udoka, I bought an iPad Pro 2021 12.9” over the summer and don’t regret it at all! It’s been amazing so far and I also use GoodNotes 5. I would however recommend the Logitech Combo Touch rather than the Magic Keyboard - it’s much better quality and the user experience is very similar (bonus - it’s also a bit cheaper and has a full row of function keys)!

      Hi, Im thinking of using my iPad for A Levels (Im going into yr 12), but unsure whether I need paper notebooks and binders, do you only use the iPad or both paper and the iPad?Thanks

  • @zigzagnemesist5074
    @zigzagnemesist5074 3 года назад +184

    Looks like a good setup, however, I’m going old school for A Levels. Textbooks (CGP and also the ones the school provided), exercises books and folders/file dividers. I will probably only use Anki on my laptop for studying, other than that most of the studying will be done on paper and textbooks.

    • @killitboi2786
      @killitboi2786 3 года назад +15

      That’s probably a good idea. But I think you should switch to more technology for A2, there’s a lot more notes to take and it might get a bit messy with just taking paper notes.

    Ive had my IPad pr0 2018 for 3.5 years now. Everyday use - it’s perfect. 6 hours a day through GCSEs and currently A2 and it’s great. GoodNotes does drain the battery much faster and more storage - after a full day on notability I’ve got about 70-90% left depending on if I’ve done work in my frees and other variables like working on sheets so it’s great. Battery health on the Pro is not a problem - says I’ve got 60% battery health which is good after 3.5 years {your phones battery health is crap after 1 year} but I still get a solid 12 hours battery life. Best investment I’ve made.

  • @jamalsafeer7405
    @jamalsafeer7405 3 года назад +30

    I’ve got one as well, but I got the Logitech combo touch instead of the magic keyboard (its better in my opinion, as you can detach the keyboard)
    Another big benefit of the iPad Pro is that you can do as many past papers and practice questions as you can any with the Apple pencil and it saves you having to print out a shit ton of paper😁

    I am thinking of getting either a laptop or an iPad Pro (with some accessories) as my first “computer?”. I’m still in high school. I don’t know if they allow like an iPad, but I surely know they don’t allow a laptop in class. But even with that I’m still not sure on what to get first. But right now I am going towards a laptop, just because it can do a lot more. Tho not note taking, and that’s why I’m still think of getting an iPad. I guess I can save again and get a cheaper iPad next year.
    I would like to know your opinion on which one should I get.

      @conor melbourne I didn’t do a JC mock or exam cause of Covid just to be clear, so I can’t give much advice for the actual exam on the day. If It was me again I would start studying most nights but only do like 20 or 30 mins a night, and just do it in small chunks as well as focusing on one topic for about 15 minutes (eg. you just do quadratic equations or R+J quotes!). Imo its better to do a very small amount every night rather then cramming as it’ll be much more beneficial for your actual JC exam as your way more likely to forget the information from cramming (cramming is only for those little tests here and there). If you need any tips or motivation just watch some study videos they’ll do the job for ya
