Tell me about using your iPad for school

Published

I may have the opportunity to get an iPad this summer and was wondering what function it can serve for a Nursing student. I will be starting my program this fall and plan on buying the books (I like to be able to flip pages) but see the value in also having them loaded on an iPad. I believe our bookstore offers the e-version of our books for a small fee in addition to buying the actual book.

What do you use your iPad for in school?

I love having iBooks. When you have a question about something you read and cannot find any keywords in the index, you can search the phrase for the entire book! Also, there are free and paid nursing apps such as Appocrates (drug info) that can be very useful.
