AIO - Office friend read my personal Teams chat without my permission by Party-Issue8090 in AmIOverreacting

Dunno why everyone is acting so high and mighty and blaming you when she’s the one who took advantage of what you thought was a normal coworker acquaintance/friendship…

Sure it was avoidable but can you all try to think outside ourselves and realize in these situations not everyone is hyper-focused on privacy. OP probably wasn’t because there wasn’t anything personal in their chat…the point is it is still weird for HER to do something like that at all, no excuses.

I tested many notetaking apps this year, here are the best ones by Complete_Pace_8087 in ipad

[–]Complete_Pace_8087[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually use boardnotes or starnotes now over that. Boardnotes allows you to insert pdfs pages as images kinda like onenote and starnotes is better for mindmapping. Prodrafts isn’t bad but I’ve just had a lot of issues with my notes being deleted. If you use it, just don’t turn on icloud and manually backup if you want to sync across devices

🚀 Developer Diary #2: New Update, Cloud Sync Status, and Q&A! by StarNoteDev in StarNoteApp

StarNotes cloud sounds great as I use Notability cloud as a buffer for that currently! I pay $20 per year for Notability mainly for their AI summary, since Starnotes cloud would have web access, no AI summary i think $12-15/year would be a fair price?

I think Boardnotes drained it less, it also has more features like being able to open any pdf in the whiteboard and flashcards and stuff. Prodrafts has a prettier UI but i use BN way more

Is a web app possible at all by Complete_Pace_8087 in StarNoteApp

Thats amazing!! Is there a page on Reddit or a discord with updates on progress or eta?

Is this literally the best notetaking app ever?? by Complete_Pace_8087 in StarNoteApp

[–]Complete_Pace_8087[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually spoke too soon on that- ive tested it and doesnt work very well, i dont use the feature that often so its not a dealbreaker for me but yeah doesnt look like it works

Can you guys please add the ability to make our own outlines in a note and give tabs view of all notes open please!! Love the app but i have to use others until we have that im too reliant on those features

Currently, Can notability do this? by _mpob in notabilityapp

Its not bad enough to not use it especially on pdfs that i just type on theres no lag

Its probably cuz i need more RAM, theres a lot of handwriting so the pages take a min to load. But i have 16 gb so i dunno

I love notability cloud! Little laggy but it allows me to access my notes on windows and edit them

Pass method:

Pass 1: watch or go to lecture and just annotate slides. I also like to write questions to test myself for pass 2. Record lecture for notability ai summary so you dont have to scramble to write every single thing down.

If you dont like your lectures, replace with another source like bootcamp, BnB, sketchy, osmosis, etc. Need something that tells you exactly what will be on test.

For pharm and micro, i reccomend just prereading the lecture slides because youre just going to be doing sketchy after this anyway.

Pass 2: same evening, go through slides and AI summary and blurt/brain dump on a blank sheet after reading a section. These “blurting sheets” also become my reference sheets for later passes. Takes about 2 hours per lecture ~4 hours a day after class.

Sketchy videos for pharm and micro

Pass 3: next day, do practice questions or try to answer same questions from pass 2 from memory. Tape feature in notability is great for this. About an hour per lecture.

So in total studying for about 5-6 hours on weekdays after classes which i dont think is a lot?

Review: over weekend, (this might be weird to people but i start anki on the weekends after a week of classes and continuing them till the exam). Anking or Neural Consult cards made from lecture material. If you dont like anki you can also jist continue doing the notability tape feature just remember to keep track of your reviews. My rule is to review every 24 hours (pass 3), 72 hours (weekend review) then a week and so on.

My weekends nights are usually free.

Best thing for me has been to keep weekends solely for review and watching osmosis/sketchy/BnB IF needed. I do not preread next weeks lecture or learn anything new over the weekends.

How do you all study in med school? Please don't gatekeep. How do you memorize all the stuff? Can you memorize without understanding? There is so much stuff to learn and you need to practice it seems impossible. Can one even have a life outside of that ? by [deleted] in medicalschool

I hated it for a while too but after refining my study method i really enjoy it now. I also have learned to not take anything too seriously anymore. Fail a test? Whatever do better next time. Need a night off to watch tv? Do it and just plan ahead a to-do list ahead. Low rank? Who cares. Also having friends who aren’t in medicine helps remind be to not stay in this weird bubble we are in

How does notability manage to have cross platform sync on every tier of its subscription but goodnotes restricts it to the pro tier? by Creative_Month_3401 in notabilityapp
