3rdgenpsych Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 I'm starting a clinical psychology PhD program this fall and looking to upgrade to a new laptop. I currently have a macbook air that I used throughout college and loved (it's now about 6 years old and slowly dying). I'm thinking about getting a macbook pro now. Is this a good laptop for psych grad school? Any comments/feedback would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsyDuck90 Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 Several of my classmates have Macbooks (not sure if pro). I have a 2 year old Microsoft Surface, which I love. The capability to switch to a tablet is very convenient for when I'm reading/annotating PDFs. Whatever you get, as long as it can run SPSS/R/any other stats software you may be using, you're good. Also, depending on how you work, the capability for docking/connecting a 2nd monitor may be convenient (like when looking at data and writing up papers).
