I typed my notes into OneNote until about half way through second year when I bought an iPad. I did find my note taking to be a lot more efficient and easy with the tablet than typing. I like to type my notes into one big Word doc, then study from that, but it was bulky to carry around a binder of paper, so I transitioned to using my Apple Pencil to write on my electronic notes and it was a lot easier for bringing with me on the go! And I could access my notes from my phone if I ever had downtime in a clinic during clerkship, which was nice too.

CASPer and recent rejections
RepresentativeSalad replied to JLLP's topic in Dalhousie University Medical School
PSA: residency programs are also starting to take CASPer scores during applications for residency. -
I think if your social media accounts are professional accounts, and not personal accounts, it's fine. I follow preceptors on Twitter where I keep it medicine-related and professional, but I wouldn't add them on Facebook, where I share my recipes, have people wish me Happy Birthday, my grandmother writes on my wall, etc. lol.

Laptop for Med School

Additionally - Apple typically has a "Back to School" event in July/August where they offer some sort of incentive to buy a new MacBook from them (I got a pair of Beats by Dre for free with my MacBook purchase in 2017). -

I ended up buying the cheapest ipad available (in addition to my 15" macbook pro) during med 2 and it was awesome to be able to jot notes down with the apple pencil during lectures - much quicker/easier to just draw on the slides than trying to type the relevant notes beside the slides... honestly if you will use both, its worth having both, IMO. -

Acceptance letter release date?
RepresentativeSalad replied to yeeewww's topic in Dalhousie University Medical School
I probably wouldn't envy the classes ahead who are having their education significantly disrupted by this pandemic... -
