MD1400 Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 I'm starting McGill meds in the fall and I'm wondering if I will need a printer for first year? Are all the notes provided for the students ahead of time or just before the lecture? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bunny Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 yes all the notes are provided but often the powerpoints are not and there are a lot of embryology notes that need to be printed. I would say yes, you need a printer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJ1985 Posted May 11, 2008 Report Share Posted May 11, 2008 you definitely need a printer. As Bunny mentioned most of the embryology and histology slides need to be printed while the majority of our course notes are given to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deedubya Posted May 13, 2008 Report Share Posted May 13, 2008 meh. I survived without one. Certainly it would be more convenient, but the cost just wasn't worth it to me. There are printers in the library (pay per use) as well as the med computer lab (free). I got by without printing either the embryo or histo slides - I guess it just depends on the individual. I just wanted you to know that you don't need to buy a printer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow that's a good joke "given", you know how much you had to pay for these notes? Aren't the slides also all on the web? noncestvrai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bunny Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 JJ is quite aware of how much the notes cost. Since the notes replace having to buy a ton of textbooks I think they are a bargain. I saw the other thread (Pourquoi McGill) If you have nothing constructive to say and nothing useful to add to the thread, post elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noncestvrai Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 No, I think I will post where I want, if you are not pleased, feel free not no read me. This is a discussion forum, and if you think I won't share my views and experience AND especially point the absurdities and abuse by McGill's Faculty of Medicine, you're in for a suprise. This measure is clearly a way to disguise a tuition increase, and of course this is not the only example. I should have had the choice to opt out, not having to pay for this printing charge, but I did not, I may have wanted to read it off the web for instance. noncestvrai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
