![]() If I’m studying and ever need to consult my notes from class, I can just take out my iPad or if I’m on the go, my phone and reference the lectures or notes in a really organized fashion. Other students organize notes into separate digital “notebooks” by block or by course (i.e one for embryology, one for anatomy, etc) The most convenient thing about OneNote is that all of your notes are synced to a Microsoft SkyDrive (their version of the iCloud) so that you can access your notes on the iPad and phone. I usually organize my notes by subject but other students organize by date, with tabs for each block, each week within the block, and day of the week, and individual note pages for each lecture that day. I usually use the draw functions to add arrows to radiographic images or to circle important points on slides. From here, you can easily navigate, add your own notes and text, highlight, or draw on the slides. Word documents, powerpoints, PDFs, images, and Excel sheets can be placed in tabs in your “notebook”. ![]() OneNote allows you to organize all the lecture materials and slides in one place. Using OneNote, you can import entire power point presentations (even the notes at the bottom of each slide) into a single document and add your own notes and drawings as well. OneNote – This is the program that I use for notes during class. Here’s the key notetaking apps (and a few others): I use OneNote and EverNote but there are other apps I know other students use like Growly Notes. In retrospect it would have been great to know about this the first day of class, so I’m happy to share them now. There are several apps that make studying easier in medical school. The following is a guest blog from Samuel Buck and Sara Fish, both first year medical students at Baylor College of Medicine with assistance from Sam Rogers, an MS3. I asked them if they would mind sending me information so I could post it here since I thought this might be useful to other medical students. They had the slides from my lecture with additional notes, all organized to study efficiently. ![]() Recently, while visiting with students before a lecture, I happened to see a set of notes on several of the students’ laptops. Among my other educational roles, I have the real pleasure of teaching embryology for the Baylor College of Medicine MS1 class.
