The Centro has MS Word, Excel and PowerPoint, but I'm not sure how well it would work for trying to take notes. I'm not very fast with my texting so I imagine that writing in Word would be hard.

I'm also not in school yet - I work at the NIH and honestly taking notes is just easier by hand or with a laptop. The calendar, however, is incredibly useful. It sounds like knowing your schedule is one of the biggest things you'll need to focus on (well, duh) so I recommend getting used to the calendar features. You can set it up so that there are notices on the top of the home screen that tell you what's coming up - for instance mine tells me I need to work on my Abnormal Psych pre-req when I get home from work tonight! Hehe.

Good luck!

I've used one for my last 2 semester and love it! Go to www.skyscape.com and you will find a bunch of apps for the Centro...having the drug guide and my nursing texts on my phone have really helped in clinicals! Good luck
