Digital note taking was a LIFE CHANGER for me in nursing school. I had bought so many school supplies along with an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil and the only thing I ever needed to bring with me was my iPad and Apple Pencil lol I didn’t even need to bring my MacBook because EVERYTHING I ever needed was accessible and in my iPad.

which size of the ipad did you get?
I did full-on digital notetaking for 2 semesters. One thing I could not overcome was my need for perfection and wanting it to look pretty, rather than me taking in the information. Writing digitally needs a little getting used to, and even with 2 semesters, I wasn't able to do so. This semester, I made the decision to go back to pen and paper, but still use my iPad for annotating textbooks and PowerPoint slides. A good compromise so far ☺💛

I had that perfection odd too, but once you start practicing, your writing automatically becomes neat. Then, it's a cake walk
who wouldn't love taking digital notes when you've got handwriting like JANICE? 💘💘💘 - i wish i knew
I find it hard to write neat as a left-handed person. When I'm using cheap gel pens the ink would bleed through or would get messy but with digital note taking everything became convinient for me.

@@harveyblackwood3563 I guess so. For me personally, digital note taking has not been as effective. I keep falling back to the good old pen and paper inspite of having the ipad and pencil. Part of the reason could be my OCD kicking in and getting me finnicky about every little detail 🤷

i noticed you didn't mention vision strain on the cons list. with having classes online , digital note taking then revising on top of our normal screen use it causes some to have to stare at a screen all day or really long hours and over time it can cause things like headache and eye strain especially if your schedule is really long for classes
I love taking notes digitally!

I recently knew that when the battery runs out so fast, lower light was much helpful for saving battery!! It was always irritating thing when I do notetaking for a long time.
I’m glad that you made this video! I personally got an ipad and pencil for high school as well as uni, and it’s been such a huge part of my studying life! I personally agree with all of the cons in this, but I still couldn’t life without mine at this point in my school career! I still do use a notebook and pencil during certain classes that banned tablets completely to be used during class though
your digital note taking videos are always my favourite! so informational & organized :)
I recently brought an iPad Air for school and I can’t wait to use it when classes start. I’m going to be a junior in college this year and I wish I invested in one freshman year because it really would’ve helped me a lot 😭

I got really into your videos during quarantine in my country. Since then I have continued to use my iPad and Apple Pencil with your advice. Thank you Janice!
Loved this... Going digital is one of the best decisions I made... !!! One con I recently found is that... it’s hard going back to actual paper and pen after getting used to digital... especially because the Apple Pencil is a bit thicker than an actual pen. I’m having my exams currently...which clearly requires me to write on paper...lol... and my handwriting looked so crappy on the exam answer sheet. 😂💔
Just started the semester taking note digitally and I LOVE IT!
Hey Janice! When can we expect a “How to Ace Online school” video?
I wish you posted every day! Ilysm!
Hello Janice!! I love you and your channel alot🌟 Thanks for posting
Found your channel couple of months ago! I am currently waiting for my ipad pro!! 😍❤️ excited to try digital notetaking🎉
I just got the good notes 5 app and I’m in love 💖 I’ve literally been studying everything even tho school hasn’t started yet :) I feel so productive: ))))))))))
My fall classes just started and I’ve been digitally note taking on my laptop using Microsoft OneNote and it works wonders for me (definitely worth it)

Taking notes on my iPad has changed my life! Love it and it makes studying so much easier with notability
Omg your videos are so motivational and aesthetic! It motivates me so much
I’ve been using an iPad Pro 11” for school for nearly a year now. I’ve been using Notability. It’s amazing. I haven’t needed a single textbook since, and all my notes are organized and easy to edit. Especially now with the new magic keyboard for iPad Pro with the trackpad genuinely turns the iPad into the perfect school device and in bed device. I barely using my 2014 MacBook Air anymore. You can even write essays on the iPad without any problems and with Safari offering desktop view just makes it so much better. The only ting I use my Mac for is to go through har drive files just because I don’t have the adapter and sometimes I’ll use it to write essays. The iPad is worth the money if you’re willing to try it. Plus Apple offers educational discounts and you get a free pair of AirPods when buying a new Mac/iPad for school with your school ID. And some schools offer the same benefits and tax free which is a huge W. At least at the University of Utah’s campus store. (This was typed out on an iPad).
@Janice Studies your videos are really useful. It's great to see you getting so much use out of your notes as a healthcare professional in-training. I graduated from medical school 3 years ago and then really worked off paper for everything, I mean I typed notes and recorded lectures but I genuinely wish I could pull up the "great" lectures that I had years ago! I teach now and I'm looking for ways to better study and prepare material (both to give to future students and organize my own notes for postgraduate exams). I hope you're enjoying your career path, it really is such a great one. I've learned so much from nurses around me over the years, give me a great nurse in any emergency! I noticed your setup with a Windows machine and it really jumped out. I've never owned an iPad. I use a Windows 10 laptop in work, with multiple displays (like your setup at 3:59) via a docking station and an Android (Samsung Note 8) phone. How have you found being "fragmented" across different operating systems this way? Glad to see Google Drive can help, perhaps the apps you mentioned work well with it? I'm just wondering if I can really benefit from the iPad if I'm not using other iOS equipment already (iPhone/Mac) but maybe it's time to leap over. (I looked at the Samsung S7+ a lot but I think the iPad apps are just going to work way smoother and better for longer... and who knows, may jump to Macbook as my personal non-work laptop is really on its last legs). Best of luck with all your study!!
That was a great video, straight to the point and even some software suggestions. Thank you
I like your videos, organized and well informed. Thanks for sharing.
A really needed this kind of video Janice !!!😁😁😁 Thank you 😍😍😍😍
i got a surface pro 7 last week and have been adjusting to digital note taking for college. it is awesome!! i have the worst handwriting, but it is still so much more fun and convenient to take notes. I recommend digital notetaking, no matter the tablet brand 💕
Always looking forward to watching your videos ❤️❤️
I love my iPad Pro and I think you brought out really great and important points in your video.
Love this! So helpful!
i started taking notes digitally and it’s honestly saved me so much time and energy, it’s also a lot more convenient
You make the best digital iPad videos so original and always informative🙌🏽😬🇬🇧
Recently , i have been starting to take notes digitally . this is really convenient for me and improves my productivity too~
Thank you Janice. I am now using an iPad 7th gen with the Apple pencil, planning my new semester on Notion.
Yess u finally uploaded so happy to begin binge watching u again lol hope ur doing much more better now wish u the best n stay safe plz we luv u
i am currently preparing for my first year of university and i officially went digital purchasing the iPad Air and Apple Pencil ! totally worth it despite the cost and will be totally useful not spending a lot of money if i decided to use traditional notes ! ❤️ great video ‼️
this video was helpful! i just got an ipad and i’ve been getting familiar with the goodnotes 5 app. ☺️
ahhhh i just discovered your channel and i love your videos so much, they’re so helpful 🥺

Hi Janice this is one of your fan advay and I have also transferred to digital note taking with goodnotes5 and iPad Air 3 and the Apple Pencil 1 and I am using your Cornell note templates and I will continue to use it ahead but paper like does not ship screen protectors to India so I will be going to be using a local matte screen protector thank you for sharing these tips and I have subbed and liked your video!
I love how organised you are!
This is so helpful. Thank you Janice!
just blown away how beautiful your notes are :)

I'm planning to use digital note taking. Thank you for this video 😍
I have an iPad Pro 2020 and I really love taking notes digitally, now I’m just stuck on whether I should buy notability or goodnote 5. I think I’ll head to your video where you’re comparing the two! You’re such a lifesaver! :)
hi Janice! 💜 edit: loved the video!
I love all your videos!
Your voice is literally so calming
Ur voice is awesome and it calms me so much
Looove taking notes digitally, it’s satisfying to have it so organized, and it looks so sleek! Unfortunately our textbooks aren’t always available digitally, especially since I purchase some second hand and any digital version needs a “one-time code” which has already been used at that point...
I just bought the ipad air 3 with the Apple Pencil and it is the bomb
Finally new vid big fannn
Miss this... Have Been Waiting for your videos Loveit
YESSSSS!!!! I DIDN'T KNOW I NEEDED THIS!
Yes I do and I love digital note taking
Sitting at my desk waiting on my iPad to charge while watching this haha glad you included the battery in the cons, although if one can remember to charge it, its not bad at all. great video!
Great Job! Love your videos.
I clicked so fast!! Congrats on passing the NCLEX Janice!! 🙂💖
Hey Janice! I was wondering if you could do a video on getting your textbooks on your iPad?
This video was awesome! Would you do a video showing how you set up/start your different notebooks/folders etc for the upcoming fall semester? (Looking for some inspo) 😊

love this video - so informative!
Another perk when using Goodnotes (not sure about Notability) is that when you want to study something you can search your notes for the word and all your handwritten mentions of it will appear in the search field. No more flipping though your paper notebook looking for that one section.
I don’t own and ipad but i just bought a samsung tab a. This helps a lot! now i feel motivated to take notes on mi tablet❤️
Best investment I made in 2020 was my iPad Pro that I will be taking to nursing school next fall! Graduating from college was not easy, but I’m so looking forward to nursing school, and using my iPad, I’ve been binge watching your videos so I can get a handle on how everything works, plus, your videos are amazing!! Your handwriting is to die for, I wish I had your neatness, but I’m working on it! Thank you for the amazing content always ❤️
Hi! Janice I love your videos too much ❤️ I love you Janice sister 😘✨ You are my best and favorite youtuber ❤️🥰
I bought the iPad Pro beginning of this year with the Apple Pencil 2 and it is amazing and so nice. I’m on my third one due to manufacturing faults but the customer service has been pleasant. Notes wise its a struggle bus since many of my teachers (I’m in high school in Australia) are not quite sure how to deal with me usually due to their high demand of paper products and submissions however for these task i usually do them on paper. Little downside but I’ve been able to save carrying around a binder, multiple books and textbooks because of this and if i was back in the beginning of the year i would definitely buy again (and warn people of COVID 😂)
I love it, the 2nd years in the master's program I just started gave us a Google drive full of all the textbooks we'd need first year. I still use a personal and academic planner physically, but that's because I love using stickers (digital just can't compare) and different pens for colorful planning and formatting. The 2nd years during our orientation legit said, get an iPad, you'll regret it otherwise. I'm lucky my parents would give no second thoughts to spending if it came to for our education, they're so frugal otherwise!
I'm about to go back to school for respiratory therapy and I'm excited about digital note taking. I was always so disorganized with my notes and I hated the heavy textbooks.
I NEEDED THIS AAA

As always , nailed it
I take my notes on my Surface Pro and love it. I wish there were more apps and accessories for it though
i'm trying to become a minimalist so i try to keep my study area in particular as neat as possible. i love digital note taking! the only things i need are my laptop that i use for history/german/spanish/english/politics and my ipad that i use for biology/chemistry/physics and more! but i gotta say, for maths i like to use the good old pen and paper!
I ended up buying an iPad last year because of you 💕 best decision I’ve ever made was going paperless
WHY do i always love watching these even without any ipad nor a tablet lmao UPDATE: i was watching this again (and some of your videos with ipads too), and my brother d3adass said "why do you keep on watching ipad videos, you don't even have the money nor our parents will, to buy one" this hurts hahaha
Thanks for the pros and cons☺️
I just saw this video....and its make my day😄
Straight to the point
I like your voice, it’s so relaxing.
I watched all your videos and finally decided to get the iPad Air 3 and both apps.I’m glad I went paperless thanks to you. Is it best to get the paperlike screen protector and how long does the tip last when using it?

Been using my iPad 6th gen for digital note taking for almost 2 years this year😌
