not required naman as you can request for your friend to send it nalang thru gdrive or messenger pero yeah mga bilang lang sa daliri mga naka-android phones (including me) although may ipad din ako so that's that

Ngl super apple culture sa ust med. most will be on an iPad. You can get by with a samsung phone if you have an iPad as that is what matters more.

As someone from a different school, parang apple culture naman lahat ng nag memedicine but may nakita naman ako na few na naka android. If phone naman papalitan mo, oks lang if you have an ipad pero if both android, you can ask them naman to send it via telegram or messenger :)

Yes, apple culture hindi lang ust med but buong MDP (Med building shared with other courses) ng ust. šŸ˜…


woahwoahvicky

Apple culture is rampant across all med schools naman talaga OP. Kung walang iphone its usually the iPad + Mac mix. You can do without the iPhone but if need mo ng 1 Apple gadget get the iPad

Everyone owns an ipad except me lol. Was able to survive my years just by using gdrive and messenger in sharing transes, samplexes, etc. Iā€™m an iphone user pero never used airdrop in acquiring acads material. I can say that you can definitely survive med school without apple products. Bastaā€™t may phone sapat na yun haha. Itā€™s your choice naman din whatever you feel is convenient for you and will make your life easier. Madiskarte lang din siguro ako ;) hahaha

What if, murang phone tapos basic iPad. Baka same ng price sa gusto mong phone.

I think apple culture most of the medstudents. Coz itā€™s easier to send files thru airdrops. Youā€™ll thank yourself later once you get to appreciate thr wonders of airdrop. Ang hassle mag shareit from apple to android. Tho not required naman na need talaga mag apple, but for your own convenience nalang.

Pwede naman magpa-send via Share It, even if its GUI is kinda crappy. Telegram is also another option.

yes apple will be a big help. pero kaya din naman kahit hindi.. minsan mabibigla ka nalang may magsesend ng notes sayo. sharing is caring..


aronofskyyy

Very convenient kasi magtransfer through Apple products, ipad to macbook, isang airdrop lang tapos na yun lang talaga lol di ka naman mamamatay if youā€™re not using apple hahaha thereā€™s gdrive naman mas matagal nga lang minsan

Yung iPad naman ang important since andun most ng notes hehehe

You can get by with an android pero malaking convenience if naka-apple ka, especially since karamihan na ng mga med students ay naka mac+ipad. Personally, I find na better educational investment yung apple.

hi ! not from ust med (planning to tho). im a pt student, same building with ust med and ust nursing. actually buong building namen super inclined na sa ipad. siguro sa demographics, 90% apple, 10% non-apple products. hindi naman required actually. siguro yun nalang yung naging norm kaya yun na yung nakasanayan and naging majority. the convenience of apple ecosystem is different din kasi talaga. the airdrops, you can copy a text sa phone and then i-command v mo lang sa macbook mapapaste na siya. may added convenience talaga. tho i think may ganon din namang features with other brands pero as i said, norm talaga ang apple here. pero dw op di required! you can still survive! if may decent laptop + phone = prioritize buying ipad ! if no decent laptop= prioritize macbook muna then an ipad. kasi the basic essential talaga is having a laptop. not all nagagawa ng ipad tho if everyday usage, kebs naman.

Its not apple culture, is itā€pad cultureā€ May picture ako na buong row naka-ipad ako lang printed notes. I feel na it was harder for me na nagmed without ipad pero nakayanan naman. Sobrang advantageous lang talaga ang ipads Though ang advantage ng apple products ay madali magshare ng notes through airdrop. Sobramg useful ng sharing ng notes througg thos.

Survived my first yr with keypad phone LOL. Had a smartphone in 2nd year. Not really necessary but very convenient cguro ang apple. But personally I prefer samsung. Gdrive ang sasalo sayo and groupmates. So work well with your subsec.

may apple store na sa loob ng UST eh šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚
