<p>Well, I'm still not sure what certain supplies should be brought to class. What types of materials do professors at UCSD prefer, especially for math and chemistry classes? Should I bring a notebook (like those 3-5 subject ones) or a separate notebook for each class (lile 4 notebooks for 4 classes)? Or do professors prefer binders with loose-leaf paper inside? Would you consider buying a binder with all classes or a separate binder for each class? Sorry if I'm asking too many questions. I'm just trying my best to be prepared as possible for college. :)</p>
<p>I bought a bunch of pens and one notebook lol...</p>
<p>Professors don't care about you. They won't make 10% of your grade organization and do notebook checks every Friday. Bring whatever materials you think will be helpful. Some people take notes with a pen and spiral notebook, some people type notes on a laptop, some people don't take any notes.</p>
<p>laptop anyone?</p>
<p>it's different for everyone. I tried using laptops, but ultimately notes on a spiral notebook work best for me. I can flip through the notes with ease when studying. Pens pencils and highlighters are definitely a must, of course. A stapler helps.</p>
<p>i much prefer a laptop, but im afraid ill come across as too geeky, or nerdy...</p>
<p>plenty of people use them.</p>
<p>Most people with laptops do not use them to take notes.</p>
<p>why wouldnt u use something like micorosft word to take notes?</p>
<p>Because it's easy to get distracted by the ever so evil wireless internet.</p>
<p>Whoot tenaya has wireless!</p>
<p>No but seriously, doesn't it make sense to do that?</p>
<p>If you have good WPM then yes I guess.</p>
<p>It's difficult to take technical notes on a laptop. Drawing pictures and writing equations is harder than typing a sentence.</p>
