I think a Mac would be fine for these subjects, but maybe a tablet is viable for a physics related course as well

I personally use a mac, it’s really good, no issues with it at all. People I know have both but barely use the tablet.

I see i feel like a tablet is more suited to maths i unfortunately dropped maths cause 4 a levels is a lot especially with the amount i have to remember in physics and psych.
I also cant be asked:ROFLMAO:

No point in doing 4 anyway, unis really only require 3, I dropped physics after yr 12 because I didn’t need it.

Yeah but obviously extra in terms of education is always best:rolleyes::rolleyes:
My mentor keeps saying we need to do extracurricular activites by doing recorded public service:ROFLMAO:
Im not aiming for a top uni tho id like to make it to leads uni as its pretty globally respected and its not an elite uni for geeks:smonk:

Neither fuck apple

Get a windows and save 10k macs are stupid expensive for no good reason

Macs are for senior citizens who don't know technology

They last forever and are really nice to use and aesthetic. I feel you’re underrating them a bit.

Ye Leeds is pretty solid some friends went there and told me it was good. Tbh all you’ll need is just a drop of work experience and references and you can go most places.

I might be underrating a but but they are just not worth it for the processing power and ect, also restricts things you can download, more shit is compatible with windows

Also I wouldn't agree with aesthetic

And definitely not with "nt" nobody cares about your computer

Girls do :ROFLMAO:
I do agree with your original statement about processing power tho
 
"Oh my God you're using a windows computer! ick!!

No. That's never fucking happened.
Well it doesnt explain most people go for apple products?
Its got a stronger brand name in terms or fashion and trends than whatever brand you said.

now tell me apple airpods or some ugly earbuds or lame ass beats?:rolleyes::rolleyes:

I guess aesthetics is just about what you like. But I guess I have slight bias since I have an I phone as well and they have some convenient features linking the two. MacBooks just seems really durable based on personal experience and I’ve had poor history with various windows based laptops.

Yeah I agree
I suppose i fant argue with facts but have you taken into account that people who are 40+ mainly care about function over aesthetics.
Mabye if this was focused on my age group/generation

Get a Mac iPads are decent tbf and they are becoming more "Mac" like with future os updates but mac is still a computer as compared to a tablet. If you want to write stuff down tho digitally then get an iPad

Bruh i only read the highlighted bit:ROFLMAO:
Look at whats under there they have a strong preference to mac os if they could afford it :feelskek:
I am aware that's why I didn't just crop it to support my argument

The point is most students have windows so it's not "ND" to have one

I would not assume windows is easier to use than Mac

Mac is literally for the lowest common demonstrator technology wise, like old and young people and guys who don't play games ect

Speaking for yourself

A lot of students , and people i know. Love the performance and more things that the mac offer. They literally glaze over it , like fanboys

There is a reason why they do that

Performance how? And what do you mean "more things"

Everyone can have a preference but windows wins both of these categories, more options, more things can be downloaded, more things compatible

And better performance easily.
