Such as, I went into a seminar full of nursing students. It depends what course you are doing though such as if you are doing a graphics designing course, you will need a powerful laptop which has good GPU etc.īut I see many students (MANY) buy macbook pro when they technically do not need it since it has way too much processing power. It is also good for watching youtube videos and many others, but not the best for gaming or graphics designing. Has alot of power for the studies I am doing.


My laptop has 4GB ram, intel HD graphics 3000 and i5 processor. There was no problems with it and specs are relatively good mainly for the studies I am doing. I have a lenovo thinkpad x220 and i bought it 80 pounds from gumtree.
BEST MAC FOR NURSING STUDENTS UPDATE
Right now I'd say either take the hit on the new update and buy the Macbook Pro or get the Dell XPS 13, which is probably the best value for money if you don't mind putting up with Windows (although I would wait one more week or two as it's about to be updated with Kabylake).
BEST MAC FOR NURSING STUDENTS 1080P
The Air is certainly not worth the money as it doesn't even have a Retina screen - call me modern but I couldn't use a display below 1080p again. I would be hesitant to buy any Mac currently as the whole line-up is due to be updated soon. The Surface Books are too expensive to consider for students. The Surface Pros are tablets not laptops and aren't suitable for any real long-term academic work. They also dropped their student discount to 10% and only 50% off Applecare. However, Apple stopped concentrating on updating their Macbook line in favour of the tablets/iPhones, and Dell and Windows released their XPS and Surface ranges. OS X is also much simpler, cleaner and efficient than Windows for the average user. Most laptops either had a good screen or good battery life, whereas the Macs had both excellent screens and battery life, as well as balancing all the other factors and offering the highest student discount of any company (15% + free Applecare). They have the lowest cost per year due to high resale value and long reliability, as well as the best battery life, displays, build quality and keyboards/track pad. Macbooks have for a long time been the best laptops on the market. I actually hate Apple as a company, but I've just heard across youtube etc that Macbooks are great for uni. Yeah, I know all about the buying the brand thing lol.
