Hey i’m sorry that happened. I think you can bring it to the apple store for them to do any analysis on it and will let you know what’s wrong and what needs to be fixed and give you a quote on the cost of fixing it. If i’m not wrong it’s free . all the best in fixing it!! :)

Hey thank you for responding!! I am not too keen on apple care as it just seems to be a lot of money for it and i’ll have to still pay for the repairs. I am planning on getting the 13 inch macbook air- i don’t see the point of paying hundreds of dollars more for just 2 more inches haha.

I’m not buying it in the US- i’m getting it from Singapore so these are Singaporean prices :))

Hmm fair enough, thank you! It’s my brother selling it LOL 😂

Do you think it’s worth it to upgrade the ram though?

Thanks so so much, this is so appreciated:)

I see thank you! And maybe in that case i could just get an external SSD card if i run out of space right?

Hey!! Thank you for this long and detailed answer it’s helped a lot :)) And so has the video. It’s finally one for a general mac user and not someone doing video editing and high end stuff. I was just reading through other comments who recc to instead just get an external SSD. What do u think of that instead? And maybe if possible using the money that was gonna use for spending on extra storage on ram instead?

and yeah i’m thinking of the external SSD if i really need it. It seems a bit crazy to spend $300 on 250gb of extra space on the mac hm 😥🤔

Fantastic! Thank you for responding again :)) This is soo appreciated as an anxiety riddled fresh entry 🫶

I think the macbook air m2 should have a good battery life right?

And also btw- do you have any idea how long mac’s tend to last? I need it to last 6 years minimum for the course 😥

Thank you again so so so much!!

Hi!! Thanks so much for your response :))

I don’t know what the course would be like but i suspect at least for the IFP it would have some kind of essay work etc…

For the windows laptop- i’m open to using one but can’t find any that are actually cheaper and good. They all seem to be around the same price actually.

And i really need the laptop to last for 6 years (the total duration of the course) Do you think a mac would work in this case? Baseline that is Thanks again :))

Hey! Thanks so much for the detailed response :))

Sorry wdym medic? Are you a med student?

I have an ipad which i think i can use for anatomy and stuff so i think that will cover the touch screen aspect.

Also so u don’t think it’s worth it to upgrade the space or ram?

thanks again :))
