Would you recommend a tablet or a laptop to a medical student or best a tablet that can also be used as a laptop?
Would rather say laptop because I can do better myself.
The best is a good laptop.
When studying medicine, you must above all be able to record the teaching content in the lectures and, if necessary, be able to do research on the web and ask questions to your "Profs".
Some "tabs" with additional keyboard via USB or Bluetooth can be more portable and "long-lasting" in lecture notes before you get "battery".
