Isn't Word like 150 bucks though? I've seen "academic" Office for that price. Is there a cheaper way? I will try the Pages advice above first

Thank you so much for that link! That's exactly what I needed.R4NDM H3RO wrote:http://maclawstudents.com/blog/product- ... -notebook/
This helped me figure out how to use Notebook for law school. It definitely involves some practice but pays off in the end.
Much more efficient than Word.

One big benefit of circus ponies is the ability to add external files and embed them into your notes right where you need them. If I get a handout or an email from the professor, I can scan it, then drag it right into my outline for that class. It is then saved within the notebook file, so my online backup is up to date and all of my files are contained within a single icon.

When using a Mac, make sure you're at Starbucks and type/sit in an extremely pretentious manner for maximum efficiency

It's like somebody coming out of the closet and everybody will be like OMFG NO WAY!! and 3 years later... so what? It's kinda offensive at this point to bring it up.
