Personally, I use Microsoft word. It has an awesome notebook layout that is really nice for taking notes. You should take a look at that. Anyway, its really your preference because it depends on how the application appeals to you.

 

I use MacJournal.

 

I prefer this one for taking notes:

i tried circus but now I'm back to office 2011

 

I'm using Microsoft Word Notebook View right now. Seems to work like I want it.

 

As someone with a chemical engineering degree, you will be absolutely screwed for staying up to speed while trying to type 8-12 chalkboards of utter clusterf*ck formulas, or drawing process control diagrams with a computer, let alone distillation columns and McCabe-Thiele charts etc.

Notebook>>>>>>>>>Computer.

Nobody--and I mean nobody--dared try to go through chemE lectures with a computer. It would've been absolutely impossible to keep up, let alone focus.

Don't try to be the cool guy with the computer--you need a notebook and some GOOD pencils. I mean you can get the wacom if you really want, but what's really the point? There are so many times where you are going to need to be looking at multiple pages of notes at once that it will defeat the purpose.

 

MS Word notebook view works great for me.

 

No one will like my suggestion but I'll offer it anyway. When I was doing grad work, I would take notes on a paper notebook and in my preparation for my next class - I would recreate the notes using LaTeX. This was a very useful strategy that provided several benefits:

1) Learned to use LaTeX.
2) Got a second look at all material.
3) Refreshed subject matter from previous lecture and allowed me to contact the Prof between lectures to resolve any confusion.
4) Provided for a beautiful and thorough review for any exams as well as future coursework.

Now, I have bound volumes of all my grad notes sitting in my library as well as PDFs that I've lent to several colleagues.

Like I said, no one will like it but it will serve you well. Besides, no other program will offer the mathematical flexibility. YMMV.

 

I use preview. If your lecture slides are like mine, it's just a long PDF file with slides from the prof, I just use preview hit annotate and write notes on the side. Works very well so far.

 

LMAO

 

Co-Sign.

 

I'm taking mechanical engineering right now, and I have a fluid dynamics course this semester, and I wouldn't even dare typing it out. Like the other poster pointed out, I'm flipping through many pages of notes at once with diagrams, flowcharts and such, and a laptop would make me unproductive, even with a tablet attached to it.

Buy some quality pencils, a small ruler, and be a happy camper.

 

It depends on the amount of time you have...

Reviewing material takes hours, more than the lecture. That could be good because you then have less to learn when the exam comes but you may not have that time. In such a case you have to study before the lecture and take the notes you need to complement what you learned... all lectures have been given before, find out which topic comes after last lecture. I did also chemistry.

I thought an iPad would be the best for something like that... taking notes on lectures... I'm not that sure they are there yet..., with the software.

 

Pen and a Notebook. Why make things more difficult then they need to be.

 

Evernote.

 

HAHAHAHAHA win.

 

Hey, I go to sixth form now so I dont really know what you need.

But I saw these a while back it may help you, I would probably laugh at someone using it tbh, unless it worked really well.

I will let you do the youtube researching...

Microsoft Word, in office 2011 for mac.

Notebook layout: check, audio notes: check!
